Euro NCAP Crash Test of 2018 BMW X5

BMW X5 Euro NCAP plays out a progression of accident tests on each model tried



2018 BMW X5

The passenger compartment of the X5 remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the knees
and femurs of the driver and passenger. However, the driver knee airbag was found not to have deployed correctly. The score for this
body area was penalised and BMW were not allowed to demonstrate that structures in the dashboard did not present a risk of injury to
occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions. Accordingly, protection of the driver's knee, femur and pelvis body
region was rated as weak. On the passenger side, there is no knee airbag and protection was rated as good. In the full-width rigid barrier
test, protection of all critical body areas was at least adequate for both the driver and the rear passenger. In the side barrier test,
maximum points were scored, with good protection of all critical body areas. In the more severe side pole impact, dummy readings of chest
compression indicated marginal compression for this body region, with other parts of the body being well protected. 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 system performed
well in tests of its functionality at the low speeds, typical of city driving, at which many whiplash injuries are caused.

In the frontal offset and side barrier tests, protection of the 6 and 10 year dummies was good or adequate for all critical body areas. The
front passenger airbag can be disabled to allow a rearward-facing child restraint to be used in that seating position. Clear information is
provided to the driver regarding the status of the airbag and the system was rewarded. All of the restraint types for which the X5 is
designed could be properly installed and accommodated in the car except for one Group I child-seat in the optional third row seats, where
the head restraint did not allow the restraint back to be properly reclined into its locking position.

The X5 has an 'active' bonnet. Sensors in the bumper detect when a pedestrian has been struck and actuators lift the bonnet, providing
greater clearance to hard structures in the engine compartment. BMW showed that the system detected a variety of pedestrian statures
over a wide range of speeds. Accordingly, the car was tested with the bonnet in the raised position. The protection provided by the
bonnet to the head of a struck pedestrian was good or adequate over almost the entire surface. The bumper provided good or adequate
protection to pedestrians' legs at all test locations. However, protection of the pelvis was poor. The AEB system is able to detect
vulnerable road users such as pedestrians and cyclists. In most tests of these functionalities, the system performed well, with collisions
avoided or their severity mitigated, even at night-time in the case of pedestrians.

The X5 has a seatbelt reminder system for the front and rear seats. The AEB system performed well or adequately in various tests of its
functionality at highway speeds. A standard-fit lane-keep assist system helps to keep the car from drifting out of lane. The speed
assistance system uses a camera and digital mapping to determine the local speed limit and the driver, allowing the driver to set the speed
limiter appropriately.

2016 Audi Q2 Crash test videos and results


2016 Audi Q2 Crash test videos and results Euro NCAP Frontal Impact takes place at 64 Km/h, 40% of the width of the car striking a deformable barrier.

In the Full Width test, 100% of the width of the car impacts a rigid barrier at 50 Km/h. In the side impact, a mobile deformable barrier impacts the driver's door at 50 km/h. In the pole test, the car tested is propelled sideways at 32 km/h into a rigid pole.
