IIHS Frontal Offset Crash Test

About IIHS

Each vehicle’s frontal offset crashworthiness is based on performance in a 40 mph frontal offset crash test. Ratings depend on how well the structure/safety cage protects the occupant compartment, the risk of injury measured for an average-sized male, and how well the restraint system controls occupant movement.

Rating Key:
G	Good		A	Acceptable		M	Marginal		P	Poor

IIHS Frontal Offset Crash Photos

Action shot taken during the frontal offset crash test.

The dummy's position in relation to the steering wheel and instrument panel after the crash test indicates that the driver's survival space was maintained very well.

Smeared greasepaint indicates where the dummy's left forearm hit the head during rebound.

There was little change in the position of the dummy's feet following the crash test. Injury risk was low.
