In both the frontal offset and side barrier tests, dummy readings indicated good protection to all critical body areas for both child dummies and the ZR-V scored maximum points in this part of the assessment. The front passenger airbag can be disabled to allow a rearward-facing child restraint to be used in that seating position. Clear information is provided to the driver regarding the status of the airbag and the system was rewarded. The vehicle is equipped with an indirect child presence detection system, which warns when a child or infant may have been left in the car. All of the child restraint types for which the ZR-V is designed could be properly installed and accommodated in the car.

Protection of the head of a struck pedestrian or cyclist was predominantly good or adequate, with poor results recorded at the base of the windscreen and on the stiff windscreen pillars. Protection of the pelvis was predominantly poor but that of the femur, knee and tibia was at good at all test locations. The autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system of the Honda can respond to vulnerable road users as well as to other vehicles. The system performed well in tests of its response to pedestrians but the system does not react to pedestrians behind the car who are vulnerable when the car is reversing. The system scored highly in tests of its reaction to cyclists, but offers no protection against dooring, where a door is opened into the path of a cyclist approaching from behind. Similarly, the AEB system performed well in all tests of its response to motorcyclists but did not prevent the car from moving laterally into the path of a powered two-wheeler.

Overall, the autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system of the Honda ZR-V performed well in tests of its reaction to other vehicles. A seatbelt reminder system is fitted as standard to the front and rear seats and the driver monitoring system detects fatigue but not distraction. The lane support system gently corrects the vehicle’s path if it is drifting out of lane and also intervenes in some more critical situations. The speed assistance system identifies the local speed limit, and the driver can choose to allow the limiter to be set automatically by the system.

The passenger compartment of the ZR-V remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy numbers showed good protection of the knees and femurs of both the driver and passenger. Honda showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions. Protection of the driver’s chest was rated as marginal, based on dummy readings of compression. Otherwise, protection of all critical body areas was good or adequate for the front passenger and driver. Analysis of the deceleration of the impact trolley during the test, and analysis of the deformable barrier after the test, revealed that the ZR-V would be a moderately benign impact partner in a frontal collision. In the full-width rigid barrier test, protection of all critical body areas was good apart from the chest of the rear passenger, which was rated as marginal based on dummy readings of compression. In the side barrier test, protection of all critical body areas was good and the ZR-V scored maximum points in this part of the assessment. In the more severe side pole impact, protection was good or adequate for all critical parts of the body. Control of excursion (the extent to which a body is thrown to the other side of the vehicle when it is hit from the far side) was adequate. The ZR-V has a counter-measure to mitigate against occupant to occupant injuries in such impacts. However, in Euro NCAP's test, the heads of the driver and front seat passenger hit each other and protection was rated as poor. Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision. A geometric analysis of the rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection. The ZR-V has an advanced eCall system which alerts the emergency services in the event of a crash. However, the car lacks a system which applies the brakes after an impact to avoid secondary collisions. Honda demonstrated that if the car entered water the doors, if locked, could be opened within two minutes of power being lost but provided no evidence that electric windows would remain functional long enough to allow occupants to escape.
