Ford Transit/Tourneo Custom
https://www.euroncap.com/en/results/...o+custom/51444
The passenger compartment of the Ford Tourneo Custom remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy numbers showed good protection of the knees and femurs of both the driver and passenger.
Ford did not demonstrate that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizesand to those sitting in different positions, and protection of this area
was downgraded to ‘marginal’
VW Tiguan

Analysis of the deceleration of the impact trolley during the test, and of the deformable barrier after the test, revealed that the Tiguan would be an aggressive impact partner in a frontal collision. In the full-width rigid barrier test, chest protection of the rear passenger was rated as marginal, based on dummy readings of compression. Moreover, analysis of the dummy readings in the pelvis showed evidence of a
phenomenon known as ‘submarining’. This can lead to abdominal injuries and the score was penalised, with protection rated as poor for that body region
In the side barrier test, dummy numbers showed good protection of all critical body areas.
However, a post-test inspection revealed a tear of approximately 30mm in the curtain airbag. The score for head protection was penalised and protection of this area reduced to ‘adequate’. The same penalty was applied in the side pole impact, although the issue was not observed in that test.
Maxus Mifa

Protection was good for all critical body areas of the passenger. Analysis of the deceleration of the impact trolley during the test, and of the deformable barrier after the test, revealed that the MIFA 7 would be a benign impact partner in a frontal collision. In the full-width rigid barrier test, protection was good for all body areas of the driver and rear passenger, and the car scored maximum points. The MIFA 7 also scored full points in the side impact tests, with good protection for all critical body parts both in the side barrier test and the more severe side pole impact.
The MIFA 7 has a centre airbag mounted on the driver’s seat to mitigate against occupant to occupant injuries in such impacts. Dummy numbers were good in Euro NCAP's test, with equal protection to the front driver and passenger. Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision. A geometric analysis of the rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection.
Zeekr 001

The passenger compartment of the 001 remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy numbers showed good protection of the knees and femurs of both the driver and passenger. ZEEKR showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions. Protection was good for all critical body areas of the passenger.
In the side barrier test, dummy readings indicated good protection of all critical body areas and the 001 scored maximum points in this part of the assessment. In the more severe side pole impact, protection of the chest was adequate and that of other body regions was good.
ummy numbers were good in Euro NCAP's test, with equal protection to the front driver and passenger. Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision. A geometric analysis of the rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection. The 001 has an advanced eCall system which alerts the emergency services in the event of a crash
Zeekr X

The passenger compartment of the ZEEKR X remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy numbers showed good protection of the knees and femurs of both the driver and passenger. ZEEKR showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions. Protection was good for all critical body areas of the passenger.
The X scored full points in the side impact barrier test, with good protection for all critical body parts. In the more severe side pole impact, protection of the chest was rated as adequate and that of other critical areas as good. Control of excursion (the extent to which a body is thrown to the other side of the vehicle when it is hit from the far side) was adequate. The X has a centre airbag mounted on the driver’s seat to mitigate against occupant to occupant injuries in such impacts. Dummy numbers were good in Euro NCAP's test, with equal protection to the front driver and passenger.
Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision. A geometric analysis of the rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection
