2017 Audi Q7 Vs 2017 Porsche Cayenne – Crash Test
|Audi Q7
ADULT OCCUPANT
The passenger compartment of the Q7 remained stable in the frontal impact. Dummy readings showed good protection of the knees and femurs of the driver and passenger. Audi demonstrated that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sat in different positions. Measurements of chest compression in the driver dummy indicated a marginal level of protection for this part of the body. In the full width rigid barrier test, all critical body areas except the chest were well protected. Chest protection for the rear passenger dummy was adequate and that of the driver dummy was again marginal. In both the side barrier impact and the more severe side pole test, protection of all critical body regions was good and maximum points were scored. The front seats and head restraints provided good protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision, and a geometric assessment of the rear seats indicated good whiplash protection here too. An autonomous emergency braking system is fitted as standard on the Q7 and operates from the low speeds, typical of city driving, at which many whiplash injuries are caused. Its performance in Euro NCAP’s tests was good.

Porsche Cayenne
ADULT OCCUPANT
The passenger compartment of the Cayenne remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the knees and femurs of the driver and passenger. Porsche showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sat in different positions. In the full-width rigid barrier test, protection was good or adequate for all critical body regions of both dummies except the chest of the rear passenger, protection of which was rated as marginal based on readings of chest compression. In the side barrier test, protection of all critical body areas was good and the Cayenne scored maximum points. Even in the more severe side pole test, protection of the chest was adequate and that of other critical body areas was good. Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injury in the event of a rear-end collision. A geometric assessment of the rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection. The Cayenne has a standard-fit autonomous emergency braking system. Tests of its performance at the low speeds, typical of city driving, at which many whiplash injuries are caused revealed good performance, with impacts avoided at all test speeds.
