Comments:

C4 with brilliance was the test, having received five stars for the protection of passengers. Durable safety frame perfectly protected all seds. Passive safety is provided by two-stage security pillows, pretensioners and seat belt load limiters installed in the backs of chairs, side airbags and side curtain. Signaling about unusual safety belts is provided for the driver and front passenger. The protection of children was at the height, also a good result and with the safety of pedestrians.

Front punch:

The body experienced minimal deformation, and the driver's door could be discovered without assistance. Two-level airbags and belt pretensioners, paired with load limiters and a solid body, worked well, transmitting only a small amount of energy from the collision on the chest and the driver's legs. A lot of work was done by engineers to reduce the likelihood of getting injured by the driver, but contact with the metal plate on the steering column is still a serious threat. The niche for the legs was squeezed slightly, and the pedals practically did not shift inside the cabin.

Security of passenger children:

In the test used recommended by the manufacturer Britax Romer Duo Plus and Britax Romer Babysafe Plus for 3 and 1.5 summer mannequins, respectively. Chairs were installed face forward. Duo Plus is fixed in ISOFIX mounts, and Baby Safe with seat belts. Both mannequins were well protected with frontal and lateral blows. Front passenger airbag can be disabled manually. This is evidenced by the short-lived pictogram and text indication on the passenger side of the dashboard. Durable warnings about the inadmissibility of the installation of a children's chair "against the direction of movement" on the passenger seat with an active security pillow, are posted on both sides of the sunscreen visor.

Side strike:

The security system includes pillows for the chest front sedams and the curtain for the heads of both rows.

Pedestrian safety:

The bumper demonstrated full compliance with the safety requirements, the front edge of the hood also does not pose a threat. When hitting the head pedestrian-child will not receive serious injuries. Protection of the head of an adult pedestrian at the race is not so good, but the overall result in this category is very good - C4 shared first place with Seat Altea at one time.
