Pedestrian Summary

Upper leg impacts: 4.40 points

AEB (vulnerable road user): 0.00 points
This vehicle scored 26.06 out of 42 points. The protection provided by the bonnet to the head of a struck pedestrian was good or adequate over most of the bonnet surface, with some poor results recorded on the windscreen pillars. The Kodiaq scored maximum points for the protection provided by the bumper to pedestrians' legs, with good results at all test locations. Protection of the pelvis area was mostly good but with some poor results recorded. A pedestrian AEB system is fitted to European and New Zealand models but is not available on Australian models and therefore no points were awarded. (Tested by Euro NCAP v8.3)
