Frontal blow:

When hitting, the passenger salon retained integrity, and the windshield stand shifted back only 10 mm. Protection of all zones of the body of the front passenger is recognized as good. The driver and hips of the driver well protected the airbag. The manufacturer managed to prove that the same level of protection is provided by riders of various complexions and in various positions.

Safety of passenger children:

Based on the testimony of mannequin sensors with dynamic tests for protecting both children, the car received the highest rating. Several points were removed for a warning that can easily peel off and are made only in the form of an icon. They are reported about the danger of placing the children's chair “Against the direction of movement” opposite the active pillow of the front passenger safety pillow. The pillow can be turned off, however, informing the driver about its status is not clear enough. The presence of ISOFIX mounts in the rear seats and the possibility of using a safety strap is clearly indicated.

Side blow:

Golf scored the maximum number of points for protection during the lateral strike. When hitting the overlap, part of the score was removed for protecting the chest. After carrying out the EURO NCAP tests, the manufacturer improved the fastening of the side pillow of safety from all previously sold cars.

Pedestrian safety:

The bumper scored the maximum number of points for protecting the legs of pedestrians, some points on the front edge of the hood also received a good rating. Protection in places of impact of the child’s head is recognized mainly good, and an adult is mostly bad.
