Injury Measures:
Measures taken from the dummy indicate a low risk of any significant injuries in a crash of this severity. (Note: during the test, some of the injury data from the chest were not obtained, but after the Institute reviewed comparable test data from Nissan, the chest injury risk was rated good.)
Restraints / Dummy Kinematics:
Dummy movement was well controlled. The driver side curtain and side thorax airbags deployed during the crash. During rebound, the dummy’s head contacted the side curtain airbag, which kept the head away from any stiff structure that could cause injury.

Driver Injury Measures:
Measures taken from the dummy indicate that head injuries would be possible in a crash of this severity. The risk of significant injuries to other body regions is low.
Driver Head Protection:
The dummy's head was protected from being hit by any hard structures, including the intruding barrier, by a side curtain airbag that deployed from the roof. Still, moderately high head injury measures were recorded.
Passenger Injury Measures:
Measures taken from the dummy indicate a low risk of any significant injuries in a crash of this severity.
Passenger Head Protection:
The dummy's head was protected from being hit by any hard structures, including the intruding barrier, by a side curtain airbag that deployed from the roof.
