Test details:
The Infiniti EX35 was introduced in the 2008 model year and renamed the EX37 in the 2013 model year because the engine size was increased.
Restraints/dummy kinematics — Dummy movement was well controlled. During rebound, the dummy's head contacted the side curtain airbag, which had deployed during the crash, and the roof and sunvisor.
Injury measures — Measures taken from the dummy indicate a low risk of any significant injuries in a crash of this severity. Head acceleration from the roof/sunvisor hit was low.
Left to right:
- Action shot taken during the frontal offset crash test.
- The dummy's position in relation to the steering wheel and instrument panel after the crash test indicates that the driver's survival space was maintained well.
- Smeared greasepaint indicates where the dummy's head brushed the side airbag during rebound. The head also hit the roof, sunvisor, and grab handle before moving back against the head restraint.
- Intrusion into the driver's space was minimal, and all leg and foot injury measures were low.
Additional features:
- Side airbags: front and rear head curtain airbags and front seat-mounted torso airbags
