Important: Frontal crash test ratings can be compared only among vehicles of similar weight.


Test details:

The Honda Accord was redesigned for the 2013 model year.

Structure — The driver space was maintained reasonably well, with maximum intrusion of the lower interior of 16 cm and maximum intrusion of the upper interior of 11 cm.

Restraints/dummy kinematics — The dummy's head contacted the frontal airbag but slid off the left side, leaving the head vulnerable to contact with forward structure. Additionally, the seat belt allowed excessive forward excursion of the dummy's head and torso. The side curtain airbag deployed and had sufficient forward coverage to protect the head from contact with side structure and outside objects. The side torso airbag also deployed.

Injury measures — Measures taken from the dummy indicate a low risk of any significant injuries in a crash of this severity.
