Not fitted to the test vehicle but available as optionIn the frontal impact, forward movement of the head of the 3 year dummy was not excessive. The 18 month dummy was sat in a rearward facing restraint which also provided good protection to the head. In the side impact test, both dummies were properly contained by the protective shells of their restraints. The passenger's airbag can be disabled by means of a switch in the glove box, allowing a rearward facing child restraint to be used in that seating position. Clear information is presented to the driver regarding the status of the airbag and the system was rewarded.

The bumper area scored maximum points for the protection offered to a pedestrian's lower leg. The front edge of the bonnet, where a pedestrian's upper leg would impact, offered mostly poor protection. The bonnet top where a child or small adult head would impact offered mixed levels of protection. However, the protection offered to adults was extremely poor over the entire area.

FailElectronic Stability Control (ESC) is fitted as standard to all variants in most European countries. In some countries, ESC is an option on the base specification but standard on others. Sales of ESC as standard equipment are expected to be sufficiently high for the system to be rewarded by Euro NCAP. A driver-set speed limitation device is standard across the model range as is a front and rear seat belt reminder system.

In the frontal impact, the passenger compartment remained stable. Dummy readings indicated good protection for the knees and femurs of both the driver and passenger and there were no structures in the dashboard likely to pose a risk of injury to occupants of different sizes or those sat in different seating positions. In the barrier side impact the chest protection was adequate. However, in the pole side impact the chest protection was only rated as weak and the abdominal protection was adequate. The assessment for whiplash protection in a rear impact was rated as marginal.
