Euro NCAP Crash & Safety Tests of SEAT Alhambra 2019

The Alhambra is a corporate twin to VW Sharan and their structure is practically identical. Euro NCAP compared both vehicles to verify that the Sharan results can be applied to SEAT Alhambra and performed additional tests, where necessary.
Available content includes video of the VW Sharan tests, accompanied by still images and datasheet. Euro NCAP performs a series of crash and safety tests on car models:
- a frontal impact test, the car impacts a rigid barrier
- an offset frontal impact test, 40% of the width of the car is striking a deformable barrier
- a pole test, the tested car is propelled sideways into a rigid pole
- a side impact test, a mobile deformable barrier impacts the driver's door.
A series of pedestrian tests are conducted with different impactors, adult and child head form, lower and upper leg form and whiplash tests are performed on a sled.
Active safety is tested based on the car’s equipment: autonomous emergency braking systems (car to car, with a pedestrian and a cyclist target), lane support and speed assist technologies and seatbelt reminders.
