Verdict

The passenger compartment of the Mokka remained stable in the frontal offset test.  Protection of the driver dummy’s chest was rated as marginal, based on measurements of compression during the test.  Protection of the driver’s knees and femurs, and right tibia, were also rated as marginal. Analysis of the deformable impact barrier after the test, and of decelerations of the trolley during the test, indicated that the Mokka would be a benign crash partner in collisions with other vehicles.  In the full-width rigid barrier impact, protection was rated as good or adequate for all critical body regions, for both the front driver and rear passenger.  In the side barrier impact, protection was good for all critical body areas and the Mokka scored maximum points.  In the more severe side pole test, chest protection was marginal and that of other body regions was good.  An assessment of dummy excursion (the extent to which the dummy moves to the opposite side of the car in an impact from the far side), demonstrated poor performance.  The Mokka does not have a counter-measure for occupant to occupant impacts in a side impact.  Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision.  A geometric assessment of the rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection.

In the frontal offset test, protection of the neck of the 10 year dummy was rated as weak, based on measurements of tensile forces.  Protection of the neck of the 6 year dummy was marginal, as was that of the head of both dummies.  However, in the side barrier impact, protection was rated as good for all critical body areas of both the 6 and 10 year dummies, and the Mokka 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 rear centre seat cannot accommodate universal restraints making use of the adult seatbelt.  Otherwise, all restraints could be properly installed and accommodated.

The protection offers to the head of struck pedestrian was mostly good or adequate on the bonnet surface, with some poor results along the base of the windscreen and on the stiff windscreen pillars.  The bumper offered good protection to pedestrians’ legs and also to the pelvis area.  The autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system of the Mokka detects vulnerable road users, as well as other vehicles.  In tests of its response to pedestrians, the system performed adequately.  A more advanced system is available as an option which also detects cyclists.

The Mokka has a seatbelt reminder system for the front and rear seats and is equipped with a system to monitor driver fatigue or impairment. Local speed limits are detected and the information provided to the driver who can then set the speed limiter appropriately.  A lane support system gently corrects the vehicle’s path when it is drifting out of lane and also intervenes in some more critical situations to prevent the car leaving the road, for example.  The autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system marginally in tests of its response to other vehicles.
