WEY Coffee 02

The passenger compartment of the Coffee 02 remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy numbers showed good protection of the knees and femurs of both the driver and passenger.  WEY demonstrated that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions.  Analysis of the deceleration of the impact trolley during the test, and analysis of the deformable barrier after the test, revealed that the Coffee 02 would be a somewhat aggressive impact partner in a frontal collision. In the full width rigid barrier test, protection of the chest of the rear passenger was rated as marginal, based on readings of chest compression.  All other critical body areas were rated as good, both for the driver and rear passenger.  In the side barrier test, protection of all critical body regions was good and the Coffee 02 scored maximum points in this part of the assessment.  In the more severe side pole impact, protection of the chest was adequate and that of other body areas was good.  Limitation of occupant excursion - the extent to which the occupant is flung to the other side of the vehicle in a side impact - was rated as adequate. The Coffee 02 has a centre airbag as a counter-measure against occupant to occupant injuries in side impacts. In Euro NCAP’s test, the airbag performed well, with good protection of the heads of the front seat occupants.  Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injures in the event of a rear-end collision. A geometric assessment of the rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection. The Coffee 02 has an advanced eCall system to alert the emergency services in the event of a collision, and a system that automatically applies the brakes to avoid secondary collisions.
