The passenger compartment of the ZS EV remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy readings indicated good protection of theknees and femurs of both the driver and passenger. MG showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants ofdifferent sizes and to those sitting in different positions. In the full-width rigid barrier test, protection of the driver was good for all criticalparts of the body. For the rear passenger, readings of chest compression indicated a weak level of protection but it was good or adequatefor other parts of the body. In the side barrier impact, all critical body areas were well protected and the ZS EV scored maximum points inthis test. In the more severe side pole test, protection of the chest was rated as weak, based on dummy readings of rib compression, whilethat of other body areas was good. Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injuries inthe event of a rear-end collision. A geometric assessment of the rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection. The standard-fitautonomous emergency braking (AEB) system performed well in tests of its functionality at the low speeds, typical of city driving, at whichmany whiplash injuries occur, with collisions avoided or mitigated in all test scenarios.
