The elegant Volkswagen Arteon hatchback demonstrated the best result in the history of pedestrian protection tests, scoring 85%. Adult passengers in this car also feel completely safe — the protection level was 96%.
The Alfa Romeo Stelvio sports crossover showed almost flawless safety indicators for passengers — 97%. Previously, such a high result was achieved only by the Volvo XC90.
The new generation Seat Ibiza also showed a decent level, providing passengers with 95% protection. However, child safety, according to experts, the manufacturer should improve.
The second-generation Opel Insignia retained the "five-star" level of its predecessor — 93%. However, the protection of rear passengers from whiplash injury proved insufficiently reliable.
The new generation Hyundai i30 traditionally received 5 stars (88%), but in a frontal collision, the dashboard turned out to be dangerous for the driver's legs.
The new generation Honda Civic, despite 92% protection for adult passengers, fell short of 5 stars. It lost the main penalty points due to weak child protection — only 67%.
The Ford Mustang, which failed the winter crash test series, arrived this time in an updated form, but could not noticeably improve its indicators and settled for a "three".
