Comments
Front impact
Structures in the dashboard presented a potential risk of injury to the knees and femurs of the front seat occupants.

Side impact
The Outlander scored maximum points in the side impact and pole tests

Child-protection
The car lost only a fraction of a point for its protection of the 3 year dummy in the front and side tests. However, a high vertical acceleration was measured in the chest of the 1½ year dummy in the frontal test. The passenger airbag can be deactivated to allow a rearward-facing child restraint to be used in that seating position but information presented to the driver regarding the status of the airbag was not clear enough. The presence of ISOFIX anchorages in the rear outboard seats was not clearly marked.

Pedestrian protection
The bumper scored maximum points for the protection it offered to pedestrians' legs. However, the front edge of the bonnet was rated as poor.
