Small overlap front: driver-side
Rating applies to 2012-18 models
Tested vehicle: 2013 Toyota Yaris L 4-door hatchback
The Toyota Yaris hatchback was redesigned for the 2012 model year. The Yaris 4-door sedan was not redesigned for 2012, its final model year. Therefore the listed small overlap frontal ratings apply only to the 4-door hatchback.

Driver restraints and dummy kinematics The dummy’s head barely contacted the frontal airbag before sliding off the left side as the steering column moved to the right. Additionally, the seat belt allowed excessive forward excursion of the dummy’s head and torso, contributing to the head hitting the instrument panel. The side curtain airbag did not deploy. During rebound, the head moved outside the open side window, partially due to the nondeployment and leaving the head vulnerable to contact with side structure and outside objects. |
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 dummy's head and torso barely contacted the airbag before sliding off to the left as the steering column moved to the right. 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, and the head hit the instrument panel.
Door hinge pillar and instrument panel intrusion contributed to a significant risk of injury to the left lower leg.

Moderate overlap front: original test
Rating applies to 2012-18 models
Tested vehicle: 2012 Toyota Yaris L 4-door hatchback
The Toyota Yaris hatchback was redesigned for the 2012 model year. Moderate overlap frontal ratings are assigned by the Institute based on a test conducted by Toyota. The Yaris 4-door sedan was not redesigned for 2012, its final model year. Therefore the listed ratings apply only to the 4-door hatchback.
