2017 Ford Escape Crash Test – Video

 

Structure
The driver space was maintained reasonably well, with maximum intrusion of the upper interior of 12 cm at the upper hinge pillar and 9 at the instrument panel. Lower interior intrusion measured 8 cm at the hinge pillar.

Injury measures
Measures taken from the dummy indicate a low risk of any significant injuries in a crash of this severity.

Restraints and dummy kinematics
The dummy’s head contacted the frontal airbag but started to slide off the left side because the seat belt allowed excessive forward excursion of the head and torso. The side curtain airbag deployed and has sufficient forward coverage to protect the head from contact with side structure and outside objects. The side torso airbag also deployed.
