Test details:

The Toyota Camry was redesigned for the 1992 model year. Frontal airbags for both the driver and passenger became standard beginning with the 1994 model year.

Restraints/dummy kinematics — Dummy movement was well controlled. During rebound, the dummy's head hit the B-pillar.

Injury measures — Measures taken from the neck, chest, and right leg indicate low risk of injuries to these body regions in a crash of this severity. A high head acceleration occurred when the dummy's head hit the B-pillar, indicating that injuries to the head would be possible. Forces on the left tibia indicate that injuries to the lower leg would be possible.

Left to right:

  • Action shot taken during the frontal offset crash test.
  • There was moderate intrusion into the driver footwell area and moderate rearward movement of the instrument panel.
  • The dummy's position in relation to the steering wheel and instrument panel after the crash test indicates the driver's survival space was maintained reasonably well.

Additional features:

  • Antilock brakes (optional)
