Euro NCAP: 2015 Hyundai Tucson crash testing
In Euro NCAP testing, the Hyundai Tucson received a five star safety rating which included an 86 per cent adult occupant protection and an 85 per cent child occupant protection rating. While the testing was conducted on a front-wheel drive 2015 Hyundai Tucson that was powered by a 1.7-litre turbo-diesel engine, this rating was applied to all Tucsons (i.e. petrol and diesel engines, and front- and all-wheel drive).
In the frontal offset test, occupant protection for the front passengers was generally rated as good, though chest and lower leg protection for the driver were rated as adequate (i.e. a slight risk of serious injury). Occupant protection for side impacts was rated as good, though chest protection in the more severe pole test was assessed as marginal.
