2020 Audi Q7 and 2020 Renault Captur - Crash Safety Tests Results
The passenger compartment of the 2020 Audi Q7 remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the knees
and femurs of both the driver and passenger.
Audi showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions. Protection of the chest was marginal for both driver and passenger.
In the full-width rigid barrier test, chest protection was again marginal for the rear passenger but other critical body areas were well or adequately protected, for both occupants.
In both the side barrier test and the pole impact, protection of all critical body areas was good and the Audi Q7 scored maximum points in these tests.
Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision.
A geometric assessment of the front seats also indicated good whiplash protection.
The standard-fit autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system performed well in tests of its functionality against other vehicles at the low speeds, typical of city driving, at which many whiplash injuries occur, with collisions avoided in almost all test scenarios.

The passenger compartment of the Renault Captur remained stable in the frontal offset test.
Dummy readings indicated good protection of the knees and femurs of the driver and passenger.
Renault showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions.
Protection was rated as good for all critical body areas for the passenger.
In the full-width rigid barrier test, protection was good or adequate for all critical body areas, both for the driver and the rear passenger.
In the side barrier impact, protection of all critical body areas was good and the car scored full points in this test.
Even in the more severe side pole test, protection of the chest was adequate and that of other body regions was good.
Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision.
A geometric assessment of the rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection.
The standard-fit autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system performed well in tests of its functionality at the low speeds at which many whiplash injuries occur, with collisions avoided in most test scenarios.
