Renault Kadjar

The passenger compartment of the Kadjar remained stable in the frontal offset test.  The driver dummy scores maximum points, with good protection of all body critical regions and the passenger dummy lost only a fraction of a point, with adequate chest protection.  Dummy readings indicated good protection of the knees and femurs of the driver and passenger.  Renault showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sat in different positions.  In the full-width frontal test, the driver dummy again scored maximum points.  The rear passenger dummy had a marginal level of chest protection but all other critical body areas were well protected.  The Kadjar provided good protection to all body regions in the side impact barrier test, simulating another car striking the side of the vehicle, and also in the more sever side pole test.  The front seats and head restraints provided marginal protection against whiplash injury in the event of a rear-end collision, while a geometric assessment of the rear seats indicated good whiplash protection.  An autonomous emergency braking system is available but it is not standard equipment so its low-speed whiplash protection was not assessed.
