Action shot taken during the driver-side small overlap frontal crash test.
The dummy’s position in relation to the door frame, steering wheel, and instrument panel after the crash test indicates that the driver’s survival space was maintained well.
The frontal and side curtain airbags worked well together to keep the head from coming close to any stiff structure or outside objects that could cause injury.
Despite some intrusion of the door hinge pillar, risk of injuries to the dummy’s legs and feet was low.
