In the frontal offset test, protection of both child dummies was good or adequate for all critical parts of the body. In the side barrier test, protection of the chest of the 10-year dummy was poor and that of the head was marginal, based on readings of accelerations. The front passenger airbag can be disabled to allow a rearward-facing child restraint to be used in that seating position. Clear information is provided to the driver regarding the status of the airbag and the system was rewarded. All of the restraints for which the Honda e is designed could be properly installed and accommodated.

The Honda e has an ‘active’ bonnet. Sensors in the bumper detect when a pedestrian has been hit and actuators lift the bonnet surface to provide greater space to the hard structures underneath. Honda showed that the system worked robustly for pedestrians of different statures and across a wide range of speeds, so the car was tested with the bonnet in the raised position. The bonnet provided almost exclusively good protection to the head of a struck pedestrian, with some poor results recorded on the stiff windscreen pillars. The bumper provided good protection to pedestrians' legs. However, tests on the front edge of the bonnet revealed poor protection to a pedestrian’s pelvis at all points across the width of the car and the e scored no points for this part of the assessment. The Honda e’s autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system can detect vulnerable road users like pedestrians and cyclists, as well as other vehicles. In tests, the system's response to such road users was adequate, with collisions avoided or mitigated in most cases. The system does not detect pedestrians to the rear of the car, and reversing tests were not performed.

The passenger compartment remained stable in the offset frontal test. Protection of the driver's chest was rated as marginal, based on measurements of compression, and that of the driver’s lower right leg was rated as poor, also based on dummy readings. Measurements in the knees and femurs of both driver and passenger dummies indicated a marginal level of protection and the scores for these regions were penalised owing to potentially injurious structures in the dashboard. The benign front structure of the Honda e did not pose a high risk to the occupants of a colliding vehicle in a frontal offset impact. In the full-width, rigid wall test, protection was good or adequate for all critical body regions for both the driver and the rear seat passenger. In both the side barrier test, representing a collision by another vehicle, and the more severe side pole impact, protection was good all-round and the e scored maximum points for these tests. In an assessment of protection in far-side impact, dummy excursion (its movement towards the other side of the vehicle) was rated as poor. The Honda e is not equipped with a counter-measure to prevent occupant to occupant contact in side impacts. Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injury in the event of a rear-end collision. A geometric assessment of the rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection. The e does not have a multi-collision braking system but has an advanced e-Call system which, in the event of an accident, automatically sends a message to the emergency services, giving the car's location.
