The passenger compartment of the Duster remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the knees and femurs of both the driver and passenger but structures in the dashboard on the driver's side were thought to present a risk of injury to occupants of different sizes and to those sat in different positions. In the full-width rigid barrier test, head injury values based on decelerations indicated poor protection for this part of the body and all points for the driver dummy were lost. Dummy readings for the head of the rear passenger were good, but it moved too far forward in the test, and protection was rated as marginal. In the side barrier test, the Duster provided good protection to all critical body areas and scored maximum points. Even in the more severe side pole test, protection of the chest was adequate and that of other body areas was good. Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated marginal protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision. A geometric assessment of the rear seats also indicated marginal whiplash protection.
In the frontal offset test, dummy readings in the 6 year dummy indicated marginal chest protection but, otherwise, protection was good or adequate for both dummies. In the side barrier test, protection of all critical parts of the body was good for both child dummies. 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 marking of ISOFIX/i-Size anchorages in the rear outboard seats did not meet Euro NCAP's requirements so the installation check of all such restraints is indicated as a partial fail, although the restraints could be installed and accommodated in the car. Universal restraints are not allowed in the front passenger seat so the installation checks are deemed to have failed.
The protection provided by the bonnet to the head of a struck pedestrian was predominantly good or adequate but poor results were recorded along the base of the windscreen and along the stiff windscreen pillars. The bumper provided good protection to pedestrians' legs and protection of the pelvis was also good at all test locations.
The Duster has, as standard, a seatbelt reminder for the front and rear seats, and a driver-set speed limiter.
