Front punch:

Experts allowed a re-headache after it turned out that when the car was first installed in the car, the front passenger seat belt load limiter was installed. The manufacturer checked the belts on all previously produced Alfa Romeo 159 and corrected this production error. A special airbag protects the knees and the hips of the driver. Experts pleased the lack of hard elements of the torpedo, dangerous for knees and the hips of the front passenger.

Security of passenger children:

The front passenger airbag can be disabled, which allows you to install a children's chair "against the direction of movement" to this place. However, informing the driver about the status of the pillow turned out to be not clear and did not meet the requirements of Euro NCAP. It is not properly indicated by the ability to install on the rear seats of the children's chair using the ISOFIX fasteners system.

Side strike:

When hitting Alfa Romeo. The left back door opened, for which the penalty points were accrued.

Pedestrian safety:

Bumper scored 0 points for pedestrian protection.
