Renault Koleos - Crash Tests 2017

Today, Euro NCAP releases safety ratings for nine new cars. Renault Koleos passenger compartment remained stable in the frontal offset test. With the exception of the driver's right tibia, which rated as marginal, protection of both adult dummies was good, including the knees and femurs. Renault showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sat in different positions. In the full-width rigid barrier test, protection of the head and chest of the rear passenger was rated as marginal and that of all other critical body areas was good or adequate. In both the side barrier test and the more severe side pole impact, protection was good and the Koleos 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 rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection. The Koleos has, as standard, an autonomous emergency braking system. Tests of this system's functionality at the low speeds at which many whiplash injuries are caused showed good performance.
