The testing was conducted on the SW Cross station wagon, the heaviest version of the model. The car demonstrated high structural strength and effective safety systems.

The crash tests included a frontal impact at a speed of 56 km/h with a 40 percent overlap, a side impact at a speed of 50 km/h, and a rear impact at the same speed. In an additional test at a speed of 64 km/h, the programmed deformation zone effectively absorbed the impact energy. All mannequin sensors showed a high or sufficient level of protection, without recording critical values.
