Test details:

The Honda Crosstour was introduced in the 2010 model year and was derived from the concurrent Honda Accord sedan. Originally known as the Accord Crosstour, the "Accord" portion of the model name was dropped beginning with 2012 models. Beginning with 2013 models, structural and restraint modifications were made to improve occupant protection in side impact crashes. Side ratings of a 2013 model are assigned by the Institute based on a test conducted by Honda as part of side crash test verification.

Injury measures:

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