Both dummies were sat in forward-facing seats. In the frontal impact, forward movement of the head of each dummy was not excessive and protection was rated as good. However, chest deceleration in the 1½ year dummy indicated that protection of this area was fair. In the side impact, both dummies were properly contained by their restraints, minimising the likelihood of dangerous head contact with parts of the car interior. The passenger airbag can be disabled to allow a rearward-facing child restraint to be used in that seating position. However, information provided to the driver regarding the status of the airbag was unclear and the system was not rewarded. The group II/III child restraints could not be properly installed in the rear outboard seats. Otherwise, the restraints for which the car is designed could be installed without any problem. Cars sold before 1st September 2013 may differ in the information provided in the user handbook about how to fit the group II/III seat in the front passenger seat. According to Euro NCAP's protocols, such cars would have scored less in the assessment of child restraint installation.

The bumper scored maximum points for its protection of pedestrians' legs, with good results in all areas tested. The front edge of the bonnet showed marginal protection of the pelvis in most test locations. The bonnet surface provided predominantly good or adequate protection to the head of a struck pedestrian.

Electronic stability control is standard equipment and met Euro NCAP's test requirements. The front seats are equipped as standard with a seatbelt reminder system. There is no such system on the rear seats and the Space Star/Mirage does not have a speed limitation device.

The passenger compartment remained stable in the frontal impact. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the knees and femurs of both driver and passenger. Mitsubishi showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sat in different positions. However, dummy readings from the driver's tibia indicated a marginal level of protection for this area. In the side barrier test, the Space Star/Mirage scored maximum points, with good protection of all body areas. Even in the more severe side pole test, protection of the chest was adequate and that of other body regions was good. The seat and head restraint provided good protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision.
