Renault Twingo crash test with Euro NCAP 4 star rating - Autogefühl

The all-new 2015 Renault Twingo reaches a 4 star rating in the crash with Euro NCAP.
Results:
Adult occupant: 78 %
child occupant: 81 %
Pedestrian: 68 %
Safety assist: 56 %
Adults:
The passenger compartment of the Twingo remained stable in the frontal impact. Protection of the passenger
dummy was good for all parts of the body. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the knees and femurs of
both the driver and passenger dummy. Renault showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to
occupants of different sizes and to those sat in different positions. Rearward movement of the brake pedal led to a
marginal rating for protection of the driver's feet and ankles. In the side barrier test, protection of all body regions was
good except that of the chest, which was adequate. In the more severe side pole impact, dummy readings of rib
deflections indicated weak protection of the chest. Protection against whiplash injuries in a rear-end collision was
rated as good for the front seats and poor for the rear.
Childs:
Based on dummy readings alone, the Twingo scored maximum points for its protection of the 1½ year infant in the
crash tests. Forward movement of the 3 year dummy, sat in a forward-facing seat, was not excessive but high tensile
forces were recorded in the neck. The passenger airbag can be disabled to allow a rearward-facing child restraint to
be used in that position. Clear information is provided to the driver regarding the status of the airbag and the system
was rewarded. All of the categories of child restraints for which the car is designed could be properly installed and
accommodated by the car
Pedestrians:
The protection provided by the bumper was good, and the car scored maximum points in this area. However, the
performance of the front edge of the bonnet was mixed but was predominantly weak or poor. The protection provided
by the bonnet surface was mostly marginal or adequate, with some poor results recorded on the stiff windscreen
pillars
Safety assist:
The Twingo has a seatbelt reminder system as standard for the front and rear seats. A standard-fit speed assistance
system informs the driver of the relevant speed limit and can be set by the driver accordingly. Electronic stability
control is also standard. A lane departure warning system is available as an option but was not tested as it is not
expected to be sold in sufficient numbers. There is no autonomous braking system on the Twingo.
