Side crash test ratings can be compared across vehicle categories. |
The Toyota RAV4 was redesigned and enlarged for the 2006 model year. Beginning with 2007 models, side airbags were made standard (they were optional in 2006 models).
Injury measures
Driver — Measures taken from the dummy indicate a low risk of any significant injuries in a crash of this severity.
Passenger — Measures taken from the dummy indicate a low risk of any significant injuries in a crash of this severity.
Head protection
Driver — The dummy's head was protected from being hit by any hard structures, including the intruding barrier, by a side curtain airbag that deployed from the roof.
Passenger — The dummy's head was protected from being hit by any hard structures, including the intruding barrier, by a side curtain airbag that deployed from the roof.
