| Driver restraints and dummy kinematics The dummy’s movement was reasonably well controlled. The dummy’s head contacted the frontal airbag but rolled to the left as the steering wheel moved 11 cm to the right, leaving the head vulnerable to contact with forward structure. Additionally, the seat belt allowed excessive forward excursion of the dummy’s head and torso. The side curtain airbag deployed and had sufficient forward coverage to protect the head from contact with side structure and outside objects. The side torso airbag also deployed. |
Action shot taken during the 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 not maintained well.
During the crash, the seat belt allowed the dummy to move too far forward, as is evident from the gap between the seat back and the dummy's torso.
Door hinge pillar and instrument panel intrusion was extensive and contributed to a moderate risk of injury to the left lower leg.
