Front punch:

When you hit the passenger interior retained the integrity. The steering column together with the steering wheel shifted forward by creating a greater supply of space around the driver. Mannequin sensors recorded good knee protection and thighs of the front seds. The manufacturer managed to prove that the same level of protection of the top of the legs is provided by passengers of various settings in various positions.

Security of passenger children:

Based on the testimony of mannequin sensors of both children in dynamic tests, the car scored the maximum number of points. The front airbag of the passenger can be turned off at the dealer, which allows you to install a children's chair "against the direction of movement" to this place. Warning about the danger of such a placement of the chair opposite the active cushion was not clear enough. It is not properly indicated by the ability to install on the rear seats of the children's chair using the ISOFIX fasteners system.

Side strike:

For protection when hit by side, the car got the highest assessment, however, at the first strike, the side airbags worked late, so the curtain did not have time to completely reveal, for which several points were removed. The manufacturer remained dissatisfied with the test results and has developed a solution to this problem. Experts agreed to re-test with that condition that all cars will undergo modifications. Volvo has made changes to all produced specimens, and also conducted a review previously sold. Unfortunately, when repeated testing, the situation repeated and the airbag again did not work as it should be done.

Pedestrian safety:

Bumper scored the maximum number of points for protecting foot pedestrians, and the surface of the hood provided predominantly a good mitigation of the child's head strike. However, this cannot be said about the impact zone of the adult head, as well as the front edge of the hood, where the feet of a pedestrian fall at an accident.
