The passenger compartment of the Renegade remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy readings showed good protection of theknees and femurs of both the driver and passenger. Jeep 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's neck and that of the rearpassenger's chest was rated as marginal, based on dummy readings of tensile forces and rib compression respectively. Otherwise,protection was good or adequate. In the side barrier impact, protection of all critical parts of the body was good and the car scoredmaximum points in this test. In the more severe side pole impact, readings of rib compression indicated marginal chest protection, withgood protection of other body areas. Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injuriesin the event of a rear-end collision. A geometric assessment of the rear seats indicated marginal whiplash protection. An autonomousemergency braking (AEB) system is available on the Renegade. However, as this is an option, it was not tested as part of this assessment.

The passenger compartment of the Cherokee remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy readings indicated good protection ofthe knees and femurs of both driver and passenger. Jeep 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 all critical body areas was good oradequate for both the driver and the rear seat passenger. In the side barrier impact, the Cherokee scored maximum points with goodprotection of all critical parts of the body. In the more severe side pole test, dummy readings of rib compression indicated marginalprotection of the chest.Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated marginal protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision. A geometric assessment of the rear seats also indicated marginal whiplash protection. The Cherokee has, as standard, anautonomous emergency braking (AEB) system which operates at the low speeds, typical of city driving, at which many whiplashinjuries occur. Tests of this functionality showed poor performance, the system failing to mitigate collisions at speeds below 20km/h insome scenarios. In any case, the car was not eligible for points for this technology owing to the marginal rating for its dynamicwhiplash performance.
Euro NCAP performs a series of crash tests on each model tested: - a frontal impact test, the car impacts a rigid barrier - an offset frontal impact test, 40% of the width of the car is striking a deformable barrier - a pole test, the tested car is propelled sideways into a rigid pole - a side impact test, a mobile deformable barrier impacts the driver's door. The passenger compartment of the 508 remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the kneesand femurs of the driver and passenger. Peugeot showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions. In the full-width rigid barrier test, protection of the chest was marginal for the driver and adequate for the rear passenger, and protection of all other critical body areas was good. In both the side barrier impact and the more severe side pole test, maximum points were scored, with good protection of all critical body areas. Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision. A geometric assessment of the rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection. The standard-fit autonomous emergency braking system performed well in tests of its functionality at the low speeds, typical of city driving, at which many whiplash injuries are caused.

The passenger compartment of the I-PACE remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy readings indicated good protection of theknees and femurs of the driver and passenger. Jaguar showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions for all but the passenger's right knee and femur, protection of which was rated as marginal. In the full-width rigid barrier test, protection of the chest was adequate for both the driver and rear passenger, and protection of all other critical body areas was good. In both the side barrier impact and the more severe side pole test, maximum points were scored, with good protection of all critical body areas.
