Comments:

After finalizing the security curtains and the re-side strike on the Golf pillar received five stars. Passive security systems showed a good result, preventing a punch of the chest and the driver's head about the steering column. Protection with lateral blows was impressive, and children's chairs were well protected by their saddles. Protection of pedestrians turned out to be a similar model Touran - the best among all tested European cars.

Front punch:

Passive security systems have shown a good result, although the load on the pectoral sedamines turned out to be slightly higher than the norm. The driver risked to get injured knees due to hitting the rigid elements below the surface of the front panel. The car body has undergone minimal deformation in the area of \u200b\u200bthe threshold and the front rack, as well as a slight compression of the leg niches.

Security of passenger children:

For a 3-year-old passenger, a children's chair VW BRITAX ROMER DUO Plus was taken, fixed using the ISOFIX system and safety strap. For the 18-month-old VW Britax Romer Babysafe chair, fixed by seat belts was used. The heads of both passengers were protected well, however, with a frontal blow to the chest of both and the head of the younger impact of the junior load. The marking of the chairs was understandable and durable. On the edge of the front panel there was a pictogram, and in the windshield - a text message in three languages. They all could easily break away and did not warn about the inadmissibility of the placement of the children's chair "against the direction of movement" at the place of the front passenger. The front airbag of the passenger can be turned off using the switch in the glove box and the ignition key, however, you need to carefully read the instructions carefully.

Side strike:

Protection with lateral blows was very impressive. Side pillows and security curtains worked effectively. The latter also protect the second-row passengers.

Pedestrian safety:

Pedestrian protection turned out to be at the level above average. The bumper and the front edge of the hood nicely softened the blow. The head of the adult pedestrian and the child turned out to be well protected. However, the wings and the edges of the hood turned out to be traumatic.
