In a new round of evaluations, five of seven small SUVs earned good ratings for occupant

protection in our passenger-side small overlap test.

Drivers and front-seat passengers should get equal protection in small overlap crashes,

regardless of what side of the vehicle the impact point is on.

In 2017, the Institute launched the passenger-side small overlap crash test.

The goal is to ensure that changes made by manufacturers to improve driver-side performance

are also being made to the passenger side in cases where there is an impact on the passenger side.

The small overlap crash test represents a real-world crash where only a quarter of the

vehicle's front end strikes a tree or a post at 40 miles per hour.

The BMW X1 is an example of a vehicle that earns good ratings on both the driver and

passenger side for small overlap.

On the passenger side, you can see that the structure is well-maintained, allowing for

survival space of the occupant inside.

The safety belts and the frontal and curtain airbags also did a good job of protecting

the dummy inside from hitting any hard structures.

The Ford Escape struggled in the passenger-side test.

In 2017 Ford reinforced the structure on the driver side of the Escape to improve performance

but didn't make the same changes to the passenger side.

The occupant compartment was severely compromised.

Parts of the safety cage came rearward and inward towards the occupant.

If this were a real-world crash, a passenger would likely have sustained a right hip injury.

Side curtain airbag protection is important in small overlap impacts because occupants'

heads are vulnerable to striking side structures or objects outside of the vehicle.

However, in the Outlander Sport and Escape, the side curtain airbag did not deploy.

This is not something we expect to see after so many years of crash testing.

The side curtain airbags should have deployed in these crashes.

Good or acceptable performance in the passenger-side small overlap test is a requirement for the

2018 TOP SAFETY PICK+ award, along with good-rated headlights.

None of the small SUVs qualified for this distinction, mainly because they fell short

for headlight ratings.

The Outlander, however, is one of the nine small SUVs we've tested so far that qualifies

for the regular TOP SAFETY PICK award.
