Safety Feature Summary
The safety feature information below is subject to change without notice. For up to date safety feature specifications for all variants, please see the safety feature table to the right or contact the manufacturer.
Dual front airbags and antilock brakes (ABS), are standard. Electronic stability control (ESC) is not available.
Pretensioners are fitted to the front seat belts to reduce slack in the event of a crash. There are no top tether anchorages for child restraints so this vehicle is unsuitable for transporting children under the age of four.

The passenger compartment lost structural integrity in the offset crash test. The throttle pedal moved rearwards by 298mm and upwards 137mm. The steering wheel hub moved 62mm rearward, 104mm upward and 18mm sideways. The front ("A") pillar moved 104mm rearwards. All doors remained latched during the crash. After the crash the driver’s door could be opened with high manual effort. The tailshaft moved sideways and dented the fuel tank.
The airbag was still deploying when the driver's head contacted it. This increased the risk of serious head and neck injury. Steering column and dash components were a potential source of injury for the driver's knees. The passenger's head was cushioned by the airbag. Dash components were also a potential source of injury for the passenger's knees.

The side impact test normally used by ANCAP simulates a small car striking the driver's door of the vehicle under test. It is based on a regulation test but the regulation does not apply to vehicles with a high seat height like the Pik-up. Experience shows that such vehicles can be expected to perform well in this test so ANCAP has decided to award full score for these vehicles instead of conducting a crash test.
