The passenger compartment of the Tonale remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy numbers demonstrated good protection for
the knees and femurs of both the driver and passenger. Alfa Romeo demonstrated that a similar level of protection would be provided to
occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions. Protection of the front passenger dummy was good for all critical
body areas. Analysis of the deceleration of the impact trolley during the test, and analysis of the deformable barrier after the test,
revealed that the Tonale would be an aggressive impact partner in a frontal collision. In the full width rigid-barrier impact, protection of all
critical body areas was good for the driver and good or adequate for the rear seat passenger. In both the side barrier test and the more
severe side pole impact, protection of all critical body areas was good and maximum points were scored. Control of excursion (the extent to
which a body is thrown to the other side of the vehicle when it is hit from the far side) was found to be marginal. The Tonale does not have
a counter-measure to mitigate against occupant to occupant injuries in such impacts. Tests on the front seats and head restraints
demonstrated good protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision. A geometric analysis of the rear seats also
indicated marginal whiplash protection. The Tonale has a standard eCall system which alerts the emergency services in the event of a
crash, but not the more advanced system which is rewarded by Euro NCAP. A multi-collision avoidance system applies the brakes after an
impact to avoid secondary collisions.

In the frontal offset test, protection of all critical body areas was good or adequate for all critical body areas, for both the 6 and 10 year
dummy, and maximum points were scored for this part of the assessment. In the side barrier test, protection was good or adequate for all
body areas. The front passenger airbag can be disabled to allow a reward-facing child restraint to be used in that seating position. Clear
information is provided to the driver regarding the status of the airbag and the system was rewarded. All of the child restraint types for
which the car is designed could be properly installed and accommodated.


The Tonale, the first all-new model from Alfa Romeo since the Stelvio in 2016, met all requirements for a 5 star rating, despite lacking centre airbags and proving to be an aggressive collision partner in frontal crashes. Overall, the SUV performs well in car to car and car to vulnerable road user crash avoidance tests and it offers an Attention Assist system that can detect driver drowsiness. The fully-revamped Kia Sportage shares a platform with the 5-star Hyundai Tucson tested last year. It is equally well equipped and scored very similarly in #safety tests, earning 5 stars as well. The same can be said of the Cupra Born, VW group's sportier alternative to the ID.3.

In the van-based MPV segment, Mercedes-Benz brings the Citan Tourer and its posher version, the T-Class. Both share the platform of the Renault Kangoo but are, across the board, better-equipped with a new centre airbag for additional far-side impact protection and high performing active #safety features.

The Toyota Aygo X is the latest new arrival in the highly competitive supermini segment, where every Euro counts. The small cross-over city car does well overall but forgoes some more advanced #safety systems, resulting in a 4-star rating. Finally, BMW's battery electric compact executive car i4 shows that luxury does not always means better #safety performance. Equipped with a similar sensor set to the 3 Series tested in 2019, the gran sedan missed out on some critical crash avoidance points and achieved a 4-star rating.
