Comments:

The overall level of safety is commendable, however the results of the windshield is worse than the side. Sirion became the first car that earned the evaluation is good for protecting pedestrians. The manufacturer does not give advice on the use of children's chairs, and the protection of children from the passenger airbag needs improvement.

Front punch:

Even despite the fact that the destruction of the door opening turned out to be insignificant, there were problems with the supporting beam of the dashboard and the steering column, which was torn off from the front desk of the windshield during testing. With a stronger strike, these destruction would lead to more serious consequences. The car was equipped with seat belt pretensioners, preventing excessive movement of the front sediments in the collision. However, when the driver's chest, the driver still pulled out to the steering wheel, which could lead to serious injury. The place where knees were pretended, turned out to be quite solid, but in addition to this feet, nothing threatened. The central seat of the seat of the seats is equipped with only a simple two-point seat belt, which can cause damage to the back or abdominal cavity.

Security of passenger children:

The passenger airbag, by the way, included in the basic configuration, you need to take seriously when installing not the forward place of the children's chair "against the direction of movement". Only incomprehensible pictogram and a small inscription on one side of the visor indicate that the probability of a deadly outcome is not mentioned. Also no recommendations manufacturer does not give about the type of seats used. The safety of transportation of young passengers is quite important factors for automakers and companies usually provide recommendations about how to achieve it. Especially for this test in Daihatsu reported their recommendations. The chair for a 1.5-year-old passenger worked normally both with a frontal and lateral blows. The armchair for the 3-year-old could not provide a sufficient level of chest safety at a frontal impact, although the head was protected normally.

Side strike:

The car well shifted himself with lateral impact. Especially given the lack of side airbag. Only for the abdominal department is the likelihood of injury by a pressed armrest. The remaining zones are protected well, although the load on the chest slightly dissipated due to the contact of the mannequin with the elements of the seating, which cannot happen in the case of the human body.

Pedestrian safety:

Sirion became the first car that earned the evaluation is good for protecting pedestrians. The reason for such a good result was the big "friendliness" of the front edge of the hood for pedestrians compared to other cars.
