In the frontal impact, forward movement of the 3 year dummy, sat in a forward-facing restraint, was not excessive but neck loads were quite high. Chest deceleration of the 1½ year dummy was also a little high and protection was rated as fair. In the side impact, both dummies were properly contained by the protective shells of their restraints, minimising the likelihood of head contact with pats of the car's interior. The front passenger airbag can be disabled to allow a rearward-facing child restraint to be used in that seating position. However, the switch, located at the end of the facia, is not labelled clearly enough and the system was not rewarded. All of the restraints which the car is designed to accommodate could be properly installed in the vehicle.

The protection provided by the bumper to pedestrians' legs was good in all areas tested. However, the front edge of the bonnet was poor and scored no points. The protection provided by the bonnet was predominantly good or adequate but was poor at the base of the windscreen and on the stiff windscreen pillars.

The passenger compartment remained stable in the frontal impact. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the knees and femurs of the driver and passenger in the test. However, structures in the dashboard posed a risk of injury to occupants of different sizes and to those sat in different positions and the score was downgraded. Readings of chest compression in the driver dummy indicated a marginal level of protection for this body region. In the side impact, protection of all body regions was good, except for the abdomen, protection of which was adequate. However, in the more severe side pole impact, dummy readings of chest compression indicated a weak level of protection for this body region. The score was penalised because some forces were transmitted through parts of the dummy structure which would further load the chest of a human, and protection of the chest area was rated as poor. Protection against whiplash injury in a rear-end collision was good for the front seats but poor for the rear seats.
