Based on dummy readings in the impact tests, the car scored maximum points for its protection of the 3 year infant. Forward movement of the head was not excessive in the frontal impact and the dummy was properly contained within the protective shell of its restraint in the side impact, as was the 18 month dummy. A switch is available as an option which disables the passenger airbag, allowing a rearward facing child restraint to be used in that seating position. The test cars were not equipped with the switch and no assessment was done. The dangers of using a rearward facing restraint in the passenger seat without first disabling the airbag were not clearly indicated.

The passenger compartment remained stable in the frontal impact. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the front passengers' knees and femurs. Additional tests demonstrated that similar protection would be offered to occupants of different sizes and to those sat in different positions. The car scored maximum points in the side barrier impact, all body regions being well protected. In the more severe side pole test, protection of most body regions was again good, and that of the chest was adequate. Protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision was good.
