Occupant Protection. Frontal Offset Test Each body region is scored out of 4 points Head / neck: Chest: Upper legs: Lower legs:
4.00 points 3.29 points 4.00 points 2.18 points
The passenger compartment held its shape well in the frontal offset test. Pedal and steering wheel displacements were well controlled. Driver and passenger contact with the airbags was stable. All doors remained closed during the crash.
Side Impact Test Each body region is scored out of 4 points Head: Chest: Abdomen: Pelvis:
4.00 points 4.00 points 4.00 points 4.00 points
The side impact test normally used by ANCAP simulates a small car striking the driver's door of the test vehicle. Experience shows that large vehicles like the GS can be expected to perform well in this test. ANCAP has adopted a policy of awarding these types of vehicles a default score of 16 points (out of 16).
Pole Test Scored out of 2 points Score:
2.00 points
The vehicle has side curtain airbags so was eligible for a side pole test. The vehicle scored the maximum 2 points for head protection in this test.

+ Steering column and pedal movements are measured relative to the driver's seat. * Model Variants: ANCAP safety ratings do not automatically extend to variants that have different body styles, engine configurations, driven wheels or occupant restraint systems (e.g. fewer airbags). In these cases, ANCAP considers technical evidence submitted by manufacturers before deciding on extending a rating to additional variants of a model. For further information about the application of ANCAP safety ratings to model variants, see the ANCAP Variant Policy. ^ Rating Year: The Rating Year denotes the year requirements against which a vehicle has been assessed. The Rating Year is determined by ANCAP and may be based on the year in which a new vehicle model is first launched into the Australian and/or New Zealand markets; the year in which the vehicle was tested (if tested by Euro NCAP); or, for vehicles which hold an existing ANCAP safety rating, the year in which the rating was updated (or earlier applicable year).
