Comments:

Z4 turned out to be a very strong car, earning four stars. The passenger salon was only a little deformed, and the driver's door remained almost untouched. In front of the front impact, the roof was removed to obtain the worst result, and when the side impact - on the contrary, raised to check the ability to hit the driver's head about the roof elements and the central rack. Since the car is a double, the test of children's chairs was not carried out. However, one can be installed on the front seat, so compliance with the requirements for marking and installation was estimated. Pedestrian protection turned out to be good.

Front punch:

Passive security systems included two-stage driver and passenger airbags, as well as pretensioners and safety belt load limiters. All this helped to keep load on breasts at a low level. At the end of the collision, the driver's head slipped from the pillow forward, hitting the windshield rack. The car body turned out to be very strong, undergoing minimal deformation in the area of \u200b\u200bthe threshold and the front rack, as well as a small compression of the leg niches. However, the zone near the drivers' knees was a danger due to the presence of attendant hard elements.

Security of passenger children:

Since two mannequins that imitate adult passengers took part in the test, the places for the installation of a children's chair remained. One armchair can be installed on the front seat, however, about the danger associated with this, only a text warning on the windshield, which could easily tear off, and was incorrectly drawn up.

Side strike:

The protection system for side shocks included side airbags that showed a good result. The driver's head hit the roof, but not enough to get injured.

Pedestrian safety:

The level of protection turned out to be quite high. The front edge of the hood did not need to test, since its form and a small height indicate that pedestrians will receive minimal injuries. Some zones of the surface of the hood softened the blow, but its edges, wings and bumper were traumatic.
