Latest Euro NCAP crash test results - Chevrolet Captiva

Overall occupant protection 4/5 stars
Front impact 75%
Side impact 94%
Child protection 73% 3/5 stars
Pedestrian 47% 2/4 stars

The dashboard presented a potential risk to the knees and legs of both the driver and passenger.

The Captiva scored maximum points in the side impact and pole tests (where a pole is run into the side of the car). However, in the pole test, the curtain airbag did not fully deploy, so the car was penalised by one point.

The front passenger's airbag cannot be deactivated and a rearward-facing child restraint should not be used in this seating position. The label warning against doing so was not available in every European language.

The presence of ISOFIX and top-tether anchorages in the rear outboard seats was also not clearly marked.

However, the Captiva's seatbelt reminder for the driver and passenger's seats did meet Euro NCAP's requirements.

The Captiva scored maximum points for the protection offered by the bumper to pedestrians' legs. However, the front edge of the bonnet did not score any points.
