2020 Ford Mondeo and 2020 Ford Kuga - Crash Safety Tests Results

Crash Safety Tests

The passenger compartment of the Mondeo remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the knees and femurs of the driver and passenger.



Ford showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions. In the full-width rigid barrier test, protection of all critical body areas was good or adequate for both the driver and rear passenger.

Crash Safety Tests

In both the side barrier and the more severe side pole tests, protection of all critical body areas was good and the car scored full points in both of 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 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.

knees and femurs of the driver and passenger.

Crash Safety Tests

Ford 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 driver's chest and lower leg was rated as marginal. In the full-width rigid barrier test, protection the driver's chest was again marginal but that of all other critical body areas was good or adequate for both the driver and rear passenger.
