2018 DS 7 Crossback Crash Test & Rating

The passenger compartment of the DS 7 Crossback remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy numbers indicated good protection of the knees and femurs of the driver and passenger. DS demonstrated 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 driver and rear passenger was good or adequate for all critical areas of the body. In the side barrier test, protection was good and the DS 7 Crossback scored maximum points in this test. However, in the more severe side pole test, protection of the chest was rated as weak, based on dummy readings of rib compression. Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rearend collision. A geometric assessment of the rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection. The DS 7 Crossback has an
autonomous emergency braking system as standard. In tests of its functionality and the low speeds, typical of city driving, at which many whiplash injuries are caused the system showed good performance with collisions avoided or mitigated at all test speeds.
