2019 VW Touareg Crash Test & Rating
20The passenger compartment of the Touareg remained stable in the front offset test. Dummy readings showed good protection of the
knees and femurs of both the driver and passenger. VW 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 chest of the driver dummy was rated as marginal, based on
dummy readings of compression during the test. Chest compression of both the driver and passenger dummy also led to a marginal rating for protection of this body area in the full-width rigid barrier test, all other areas being well or adequately protected. In the side barrier test, the Touareg scored maximum points with good protection of all body areas. In the more severe side pole test, protection of the chest was rated as marginal, based on dummy readings of rib deflection. Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection of the neck against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision. A geometric assessment of the rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection. The autonomous emergency braking (AEB) 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 test, all critical body areas were well or adequately protected. In the side barrier impact, all body areas were well protected. 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 child restraints for which the Touareg is designed could be properly installed and accommodated.
