Citroën C3 Aircross - Crash Tests 2017

Euro NCAP has published the safety ratings of eight new vehicles: the Volvo XC60 in the large off-road category; the VW T-Roc, Skoda Karoq and Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross in the small off-road category; the Citroën C3 Aircross and Opel Crossland X small MPV category; and two superminis – the new VW Polo and the SEAT Ibiza’s partner, the Arona. All cars achieve a maximum five-star rating. The passenger compartment of the C3 Aircross remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy readings indicated good protection ofmthe knees and femurs of both the driver and passenger. Citroën showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupantsof different sizes and to those sat in different positions. In the full-width rigid barrier test, protection of the driver and rear seat passenger was good or adequate for all critical parts of the body. In the side barrier test, protection was good for all main body areas and the C3 Aircross scored maximum points. Even in the more severe side pole test, protection of the chest was adequate and that of other body areas was good. Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision. However, a geometric assessment of the rear seats indicated poor whiplash protection. An autonomous emergency braking system is available but, as it is an option, it is not included in this assessment
