In both the frontal offset and side barrier tests, good protection was provided to all critical body areas for both child dummies, and the Volkswagen ID.7 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 ID.7 is equipped with an indirect 'child presence detection' system, which issues a warning when it recognises that a child or infant may have been left in the car. All of the child restraint types for which the ID.7 is designed could be properly installed and accommodated in the car.

| PERFORMANCE | |
The ID.7 has an active bonnet. Sensors in the bumper detect when a pedestrian has been struck and actuators lift the bonnet to provide greater clearance to the hard structures underneath. Volkswagen showed that the system deployed robustly over a range of speeds and for a variety of pedestrian statures, so the airbag was used in Euro NCAP’s tests. Protection of the head of a struck pedestrian or cyclist was predominantly good or adequate, with some poor results recorded only at the base of the windscreen and on the stiff windscreen pillars. Protection of the pelvis, femur, knee and tibia was at good at all test locations and the ID.7 scored maximum points in this part of the assessment. The autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system of the Volkswagen can respond to vulnerable road users as well as to other vehicles. The system performed adequately in tests of its response to pedestrians but scored no points for protecting those who are vulnerable when the car is reversing. The system scored adequately in tests of its reaction to cyclists, including points for dooring protection, in which the car prevents or warns against door opening if a cyclist is approaching from behind. Similarly, the AEB system performed well in all tests of its response to motorcyclists.

Overall, the autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system of the Volkswagen ID.7 performed well in tests of its reaction to other vehicles, including in the head-on test scenarios. A seatbelt reminder system is fitted as standard to the front and rear seats and the driver monitoring system detects distraction and fatigue. 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 ID.7 remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy numbers showed good protection of the knees and femurs of both the driver and passenger. Volkswagen showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions. Protection was good for all critical body areas of the passenger. Analysis of the deceleration of the impact trolley during the test, and analysis of the deformable barrier after the test, revealed that the ID.7 would be a benign impact partner in a frontal collision. In the full-width rigid barrier test, protection of all critical body areas was good for both the driver and the rear passenger, and the ID.7 scored maximum points in this part of the assessment. The car also scored full points in the side barrier test and, 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 ID.7 has a counter-measure to mitigate against occupant to occupant injuries in such impacts and this performed well in Euro NCAP's test. 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 ID.7 has an advanced eCall system which alerts the emergency services in the event of a crash. The car also has a system which applies the brakes after an impact, to avoid secondary collisions. Volkswagen demonstrated that if the car entered water the doors, if locked, could be opened within two minutes of power being lost and that electric windows would remain functional long enough to allow occupants to escape.
