Test details:

The Lexus HS 250h was introduced in the 2010 model year and is derived from the Toyota Prius. Frontal ratings are assigned by the Institute based on a test conducted by Toyota as part of frontal crash test verification.

Restraints/dummy kinematics — Dummy movement was well controlled. After the dummy moved forward into the airbag, it rebounded into the seat without its head coming close to any stiff structure that could cause injury.

Injury measures — Measures taken from the dummy indicate a low risk of any significant injuries in a crash of this severity.

Additional features:

Side airbags: front and rear head curtain airbags and front and rear seat-mounted torso airbags
Driver and front passenger knee airbags: separate airbags in the lower instrument panel designed to minimize knee injuries in frontal crashes
Electronic stability control
Antilock brakes
Daytime running lights
