In the crash test, Swift achieved 15.53% (6.21 points) adult occupant protection, 0% (0 points) child occupant protection, 66.07% (31.71 points) pedestrian and vulnerable road users protection, and 6.98% (3 points) ) For its safety auxiliary system.

The Latin NCAP says that the 0-star result is due to poor side impact protection, low whiplash scores, lack of standard side protection airbags, lack of ESC, and the use of a belt in the rear center seat instead of a three-point unit, because Suzuki CRS (Child Restraint System) is not recommended.

The Latin NCAP further states that although the head and neck of the driver and passengers are well protected, the protection of the driver’s chest area is weak. In addition, the knees of the driver and a passenger only show edge protection, as they may affect the structure behind the dashboard. At the same time, the knee of another passenger showed good protection.

For side collisions, the head and pelvis were well protected, and the abdomen was adequately protected, but the chest was poorly protected, resulting in a zero score in this test. In general, due to asymmetry, the body shell was rated as unstable on the edge, and Swift was determined to be unable to withstand more loads.

Global NCAP and Latin NCAP collision test results

Interestingly, although this generation of Swift scored zero in the Latin NCAP test, similar contemporary models also Passed the Global NCAP test in 2018 and received 2 stars Safety rating. The difference in these results is mainly due to the different test protocols of Global NCAP and Latin NCAP.

In the Global NCAP test, the car only undergoes a front-offset crash test. In this test, the car is traveling at 64kph and has a 40% overlap into a deformable obstacle, which is equivalent to a collision between two cars of the same weight, both of which are traveling at 50kph.
