Comments:

For protecting adult passengers, this generation BMW 3 deserved five stars. The passenger salon retained the integrity and protected the saddles; For protection with a frontal impact, the car scored almost the maximum number of points. Intelligent Safety Belt Safety Alarms works for two front places. The protection of children was good, however, pedestrians are very bad.

Front punch:

The body has undergone minimal deformation, and the driver's door has opened normally after impact. Two-stage airbags, load limiters and seat belt pretensioners, coupled with a solid body, showed a good result by holding the load on the chest and a mannequin's legs at a low level. A lot of effort the designers put to protect the knees and top of the legs of the front sediments. Niche for the legs is not deformed not much, and a large amount of filler protected the driver's feet. Finally, the displacement of the pedal node turned out to be small, even more reducing the risk.

Security of passenger children:

The test instance was equipped with an additional manual front passenger airbag status switch. The status itself is displayed on a highlighted icon and on a small screen near the inner mirror. Both children were located in the Fair Bimbo Fix chairs installed using ISOFIX fasteners and an additional support ("against the direction" for the younger, and "in the direction of movement" - for the elder). The protection of both children was performed at a high level. Warnings about the presence of airbag for the front passenger were made by the pictograms on the central rack and text message on the windshield. All these messages can easily break away and do not mention the danger of the location of the children's chair "against the direction of movement" opposite the active airbag.

Side strike:

The protection system when hitting the side pillow and security curtains that also protect the second-row seds. The assessment in this category did not quite slightly reach the maximum.

Pedestrian safety:

The car scored only 4 points from possible 36. Only a small area of \u200b\u200bthe surface of the hood, where the head of an adult or a child falls at least some mitigation. The bumper and the front edge of the hood was not provided with any noticeable protection. The overall result was very disappointed by experts.
