Comments:

The Octavia body turned out to be very strong and provided good protection for its passengers. Passive safety systems were included by single -stage front airbags of the driver and passenger, side airbags and pretensors with restrictions on the load of the front seat belts. Octavia has a platform common to Volkswagen Golf, however, unlike the “German”, “Czech” does not have safety curtains in the basic configuration. However, they are available for an additional fee. The protection of the children was good, and the evaluation for the protection of pedestrians only did not reach three stars a little.

Frontal blow:

The car body has undergone minimal deformation. Single-stage front airbags and pretensors with restrictions on the load loads kept the load on the driver's chest at a relatively low level, but he risked getting his knees injuries due to contact with rigid elements of the front panel. The niche for the legs was weakly deformed, and the displacement of the pedals was permissible.

Safety of passenger children:

The front pillow of the passenger’s safety can be disabled manually, and for a long period you can turn off the pillow at the dealer. The status is displayed on the instrument panel and the front console. The danger of installing a children's chair, “against the direction of movement”, opposite the active pillow, is informed only by the icon, which is located on the edge of the front panel and can easily break away. The test used the Fair Bimbo Fix (“in the direction of movement” for the elder, and “against the direction of movement” - for the youngest) installed in ISOFIX mounts. Both children were well protected, although with a frontal stroke of the load on the chest cells were slightly higher than the norm.

Side blow:

The protection system when hitting the side included side airbags and scored the maximum number of points.

Pedestrian safety:

The bumper and the front edge of the hood ensured the mitigation of the blow, as well as the surface of the hood, especially in the places where the child’s head will fall when hitting.
