The passenger compartment of the IONIQ 6 remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the knees and femurs of both the driver and passenger. Hyundai demonstrated that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions. Good protection was provided to all critical body areas of the passenger dummy. Analysis of the deceleration of the impact trolley during the test, and analysis of the deformable barrier after the test, revealed that the IONIQ 6 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 or adequate. In the side barrier test, protection of all critical body areas was good and the IONIQ 6 scored maximum points. In the more severe side pole impact, protection of the chest was adequate, and that of the head, abdomen and pelvis was good. 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 found to be adequate. The IONIQ 6 has a counter-measure to mitigate against occupant to occupant injuries in such impacts. The system performed well in Euro NCAP’s test, with good protection of occupants’ heads. 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 indicated marginal whiplash protection. The IONIQ 6 has an advanced eCall system which alerts the emergency services in the event of a crash and a system which automatically applies the brakes to prevent secondary collisions.
The IONIQ 6 provided good protection for all critical body regions of both the 6 and 10 year dummies in the frontal offset and side barrier tests, and 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. All of the child restraint types for which the IONIQ 6 is designed could be properly installed and accommodated.
Protection of the head of a struck pedestrian was predominantly marginal or weak, with several areas showing poor protection. The bumper offered mostly good protection to pedestrians’ legs and protection of the pelvis was also predominantly good, albeit with some weak areas. The autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system of the IONIQ 6 can respond to vulnerable road users as well as to other vehicles. The system performed well in tests of its response to pedestrians and cyclists, with collisions avoided in most test scenarios.
The IONIQ 6’s autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system 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 car is equipped with a system to detect driver 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. A speed assistance system detects the local speed limit and the driver can choose to set the limiter or let the system do so automatically.
