Comments:

With the frontal impact, the ATOZ body was very deformed, the steering wheel and the brake pedal shifted far back. This, as well as a high load on the driver's chest, influenced a bad general assessment. However, with a lateral blow, the results were much higher, and only the risk of chest injury led to a loss of points, although the driver’s head hit the central rack along the oblique. However, children's seats did not ensure security at the proper level, especially with a frontal impact, in which the movement of mannequins forward was excessive. For cars of this size, pedestrian protection was at an average level.

Frontal blow:

The driver's door did not deform much and after a blow was able to open without outside help. However, all the defense was “on the verge”, including the deformation of the steering wheel. The knees of the anterior riders were dangerous to injure in contact with traumatic places around the steering column.

Safety of passenger children:

The manufacturer did not give recommendations to the buyer regarding the children's seats, although those used in the test were approved by the manufacturer. The protection of children should be taken with great attention. The chairs did not ensure the complete safety of children. During the frontal impact, the movement forward was excessive, and with the side head they could not resist the chairs. This significantly increased the risk of serious damage. Much of this aspect needed improvements.

Side blow:

The side strike saved the reputation of ATOZ: its body absorbed energy, although the load on the chest was high. All together creates the impression of a well -thought -out body design. The minus was the driver’s head against the central rack, although not strong enough to cause serious damage.

Pedestrian safety:

Partially, the protection was provided in the legs and hips of pedestrians. Not all points were received due to places of a possible hit of the head. In this state of affairs, much in the construction of the body can be improved.
