Comments:

Prius became the first hybrid car that has passed Euro NCAP tests. After changes in the design in the driver's knee zone, the car scored five stars. The passenger salon was very durable and reliable. Passive security systems have shown a good result and the breasts of the driver from hitting the steering wheel are shifted. Protection when hit by side was also impressed, and the children's seats recommended by the manufacturer very well coped with their functions. Pedestrian protection turned out to be worse than medium.

Front punch:

The car body was very strong, having received minimal deformation in the area of \u200b\u200bthe threshold and windshield racks and the same compression of the leg niches. Passive security systems included a two-stage airbag for a driver and a single-stage - for the passenger. In combination with pretensioners and seat belt load limiters, they showed a good result, although the load on the driver's chest was slightly higher than the norm. Also, the driver risked to get injured knees from contact with a steering column and rigid elements below the surface of the front panel.

Security of passenger children:

For a 3-year passenger, a Toyota Britax Romer Duo chair was used, installed "in the direction of movement" using ISOFIX and safety strap. The 18-month passenger was located in the chair "against the direction of movement" Toyota Britax Romer Babysafe, a fixed seat belt. Children's heads and chest cells were fully protected. The danger of placing the children's chair "against the direction of movement" opposite the active airbag was reported by the pictogram on the right edge of the front panel and a text warning on a sunscreen visor.

Side strike:

In this test, the car was very impressed by the experts. Side pillows and security curtains worked effectively. The latter are also protected by the rear row passengers.

Pedestrian safety:

The hood softened the head of the head of the adult and the child, however, the wings are very attendant. The bumper and the front edge of the hood did not provide any protection.
