In the side impact test, forces were transmitted to parts of the dummy which are not representative of a human body, reducing the load on the ribs. Accordingly the maximum penalty of 2 points was applied. This resulted in a chest rating of 'Marginal'. Loads on the abdomen also indicated marginal protection.
The vehicle was eligible for a side pole test because it has side curtain airbags. The vehicle scored the maximum 2 points for head protection in this test.

This vehicle scored 24.05 out of 36 points (Acceptable). The bumper provided good protection to pedestrians' legs and scored maximum points. However, the front edge of the bonnet was poor at all test locations and scored no points. The active bonnet was tested in the deployed (raised) position and results were predominantly good or adequate. (Tested by Euro NCAP v7.0)
