Action shot taken during the frontal offset crash test.
The dummy's position in relation to the steering wheel and instrument panel after the crash test indicates that the driver's survival space was maintained well.
Intrusion into the driver footwell area was minimal.
Forces on the right lower leg were high enough to indicate the possibility of injury.
