FRONTAL OFFSET CRASH TEST
Body region scores out of 4 points each: Head/neck Zero
pts, chest 1 pts, upper legs 1.39 pts, lower legs Zero pts.
The passenger compartment lost structural integrity in the
offset crash test. The throttle pedal moved rearwards by
298 mm and upwards 137 mm. The steering wheel hub
moved 62 mm rearward, 104 mm upward and 18 mm
sideways. The front ("A") pillar moved 104 mm rearwards.
All doors remained latched during the crash. After the
crash the driver's door could be opened with high manual
effort. The tailshaft moved sideways and dented the fuel
tank.
The airbag was still deploying when the driver's head
contacted it. This increased the risk of serious head and
neck injury. Steering column and dash components were a
potential source of injury for the driver's knees. The
passenger's head was cushioned by the airbag. Dash
components were also a potential source of injury for the
passenger's knees.
