Comments:

A4 is highlighted by a strong passenger compartment, well-defending sedimons. Airbags were protected with front and side shocks. The curtains also protected the heads of the rear row passengers. The car deserved four stars. Unfortunately, warnings about the presence of airbags do not meet the requirements of Euro NCAP, and the design of pedestrians designers seem to have forgotten.

Front punch:

Passive security systems protected their heads and driver's neck. The front seat belts were equipped with pyrotechnic pretensioners and load limiters. Although they prevented the driver's punch of the driver about the steering wheel, the load on it was still quite high. The brake and clutch pedals are designed in such a way as to disconnect when hitting, reducing the risk of injury, and this mechanism worked well. Compared with the previous generation A4, the zone near his knees was much safer, but the locking lock was still located in a dangerous place. The three-point seat belt of the central seat of the seats was installed only for an additional fee, which is quite amazing for the car with such a large number of security systems. The belt belt can cause serious injury.

Security of passenger children:

The front passenger airbag was included in the basic package of A4, so the manufacturer should take into account the danger of the installation of the children's chair "against the direction of movement" into this place. In the cabin, the experts found only a pictogram and a short-lived sticker on the windshield, and none of these warnings mentioned the likelihood of damage to life with such an installation. The seat belts of the extreme places of the back row of seats were adapted for a more reliable fixation of children's chairs, however, the method of their application was explained not clearly clear. VW Römer Prince Bobsy G1 Universal used in the Dough Chairs used in Dough Bobsy G1 Universal did not provide appropriate protection to their seats. When you hit the side of the head of both children were not kept within the chair, and during the front 18-month risked the neck injury.

Side strike:

The protection system when hitting the side of the security curtains. In this part of the test, the car scored the maximum number of points.

Pedestrian safety:

About pedestrians, the designers of the car seemed not to think. When driving, the car makes injuries that could be avoided.
