Comments:

During the test, one of the doors C5 opened. Euro NCAP allowed the manufacturer to provide a modified car. The changes partially corrected the position: when the door was repeated, the door was kept only on the last division of the locking door lock mechanism, but remained closed. Durable passenger cabin safety frame allowed to maintain a safe space. After the frontal impact, the driver's door could open normally, and the foot niche has kept its shape. The driver's chest has hit the steering wheel, which raised the risk of injury to this zone.

Front punch:

The body turned out to be very strong, and the front desk from the driver was absolutely not deformed. However, the breast cell of the driver hit the steering wheel. Niche for the legs practically did not lose his shape and defended the feet of the driver, however, the hard elements of the panel torpedo were dangerous for his knees. For the central rear passenger there is a three-point security belt, providing better protection compared to a two-point belt belt.

Security of passenger children:

Using the ignition key, you can turn off the front passenger airbag, allowing you to install the children's chair "against the direction of movement" in its place. To turn off (but not inclusion), you can use the second key so as not to turn off the engine. At the same time, a warning inscription appears, providing security check. However, even at the same time, warnings about the danger of the active cushion is not enough. In the test, both armchairs were fastened to face and ensured some security, however, not in all situations.

Side strike:

The car provides an impressive level of protection, and passive security systems include four pillows and curtains for the head. In this test, C5 has earned the maximum assessment. The only disadvantage was the fact that after the modernization, the door is slightly shut down.

Pedestrian safety:

The places of the possible strike of the head of children and adults provide a good level of protection, however, the bumper and the front edge of the hood is unsafe.
