Safety Feature Summary
The safety feature information below is subject to change without notice. For up to date safety feature specifications for all variants, please see the safety feature table to the right or contact the manufacturer.
Safety equipment, as tested, not standard in Australia
A driver airbag and antilock brakes (ABS) with electronic brakeforce distribution (EBD) and Emergency Brake Assist (EBA) are standard. A passenger airbag is optional in Australia and this ANCAP rating applies to models with this option. Side airbags and electronic stability control (ESC) are also optional. An intelligent seat belt reminder is fitted to the driver seat.
Pretensioners are fitted to the front seat belts to reduce slack in the event of a crash.

The passenger compartment held its shape well in the offset crash test. The clutch pedal moved rearwards by 86mm and upwards 28mm. The steering wheel hub moved 32mm rearward, 14mm upward and 11mm sideways. The front ("A") pillar moved 43mm rearwards. All doors remained closed during the crash. After the crash the driver’s door could be opened with high manual effort.
The airbag cushioned the head of the driver and contact was stable. Steering column components were a potential source of injury for the driver's knees. The passenger's head was cushioned by the airbag.

The vehicle was not eligible for an optional pole impact test because it lacked head-protecting side airbags.
Marginal
Pedestrian Summary
This raiting is based on tests to a previous protocol. Scores might vary under the latest test protocol.
The bumper scores maximum points for its protection of pedestrians' legs but the front edge of the bonnet scored zero. The bonnet surface was rated as predominantly poor for the protection it offered to the head of a pedestrian.
Pedestrian Rating Explained
The Australasian New Car Assessment Program (ANCAP) provides consumers with independent and transparent information on the level of occupant and pedestrian protection provided by different new car models, in the most common types of crashes, through its star rating program.
