    The Volkswagen Jetta performed well in adult occupant and child occupant testing, scoring 94% and 86% respectively. It provided stable protection for adult occupants and good protection for child dummies in dynamic tests. However, protection for the adult chest in side impacts was rated as marginal. The Jetta scored 71% for safety assist features due to the inclusion of electronic stability control but lack of a speed limitation device. Pedestrian protection was mixed, with good protection for legs but predominantly poor protection for the head of an adult.

    Seatbelt Reminder

    driver and
    passenger

    COMMENTS
    Adult occupant
    The passenger compartment remained stable in the frontal impact. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the
    knees and femurs of the driver and front passenger. Volkswagen showed that a similar level of protection would be
    provided for occupants of different sizes and those sat in different positions. Rear seatbelt pretensioners and loadlimiters are available as an option on the Jetta but were not fitted to the test car. The Jetta scored maximum points
    for its performance in the side barrier test. In the more severe side pole impact, protection of the chest was rated as
    marginal, based on dummy readings of rib deflection. The seat and head restraint provided good protection against
    whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision.
    Child occupant
    Based on dummy readings in the dynamic tests, the Jetta scored maximum points for its protection of both the 18
    month and the 3 year infant. The passenger airbag can be disabled to allow a rearward facing child restraint to be
    used in that seating position. However, information provided to the driver about the status of the airbag was not
    sufficiently clear. A permanently attached label gives a clear warning of the dangers of using a rearward facing child
    seat without first disabling the airbag.
    Pedestrian
    The bumper scored maximum points, providing good protection for pedestrians' legs at all points tested. In those
    areas likely to be struck by the head of a child, the bonnet provided predominantly good levels of protection.
    However, the protection offered to the head of an adult was predominantly poor.
    Safety assist
    Electronic stability control is currently optional in Bulgaria, Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia. It is standard equipment
    throughout the remainder of Europe and its sales as standard are expected to exceed Euro NCAP's 2011
    requirement of 95 percent. A seatbelt reminder is standard equipment for the driver and front passenger seats.
    There is no speed limitation device available for the Jetta.
