Small overlap front: driver-side
Rating applies to 2015-16 models
Tested vehicle: 2015 Honda CR-V LX 4-door 4wd
The Honda CR-V was redesigned for the 2012 model year. Beginning with 2015 models, changes were made to the front-end and occupant compartment structure and restraint system to improve occupant protection in small overlap frontal crashes.

The dummy's position in relation to the door frame, steering wheel, and instrument panel after the crash test indicates that the driver's survival space was maintained well.

The frontal and side curtain airbags worked well together to keep the head from coming close to any stiff structure or outside objects that could cause injury.

There was little intrusion into the driver's space, but there was still a moderate risk of injury to the left lower leg.
