    Protection
    Occupant Protection Score 35.83 out of 37
    Variant: DCi Expression Eng: 1.5 diesel
    Kerb mass 1290 kg Category: CAR - MEDIUM
    Vehicles built: 2008 Tested by Euro NCAP
    Important note: The diesel left-hand-drive European
    model was tested by Euro NCAP. Australasian
    specifications may vary and therefore models sold in
    Australasia might provide different levels of protection to
    those described on this page.
    Model History and Safety Features
    The tested model of Renault Megane was introduced in
    Australia and New Zealand during 2010. This ANCAP
    rating applies to the diesel variant that was released in
    2011.
    Dual front airbags, side airbags and head-protecting side
    curtains are standard equipment. Antilock brakes (ABS),
    electronic brakeforce distribution (EBD) and electronic
    stability control (ESC) are also standard. Intelligent seat
    belt reminders are fitted both front seats (all seats have
    seat belt reminders in Europe).
    Pretensioners are fitted to the front seat belts to reduce
    slack in the event of a crash.
    OCCUPANT PROTECTION: 5 Stars
    The Megane scored 15.83 out of 16 in the offset crash test.
    The passenger compartment held its shape well. There
    was a slight risk of serious chest injury for the driver.
    The vehicle scored 16 out of 16 in the side impact crash
    test and a further two points in the pole test.

    FRONTAL OFFSET CRASH TEST
    Body region scores out of 4 points each: Head/neck 4 pts,
    chest 3.83 pts, upper legs 4 pts, lower legs 4 pts.
    The passenger compartment held its shape well in the
    offset crash test. The clutch pedal moved rearwards by 54
    mm and upwards 16 mm. The steering wheel hub moved
    24mm forward, 3mm downward and 14 mm sideways. The
    front ("A") pillar moved 10 mm rearwards. All doors
    remained closed during the crash. After the crash the all
    doors could be opened with normal effort.
    The airbag cushioned the head of the driver and contact
    was stable. The passenger's head was cushioned by the
    airbag. There were no knee hazards.
    SIDE IMPACT CRASH TEST
    Body region scores out of 4 points each: Head 4 pts, chest
    4 pts, abdomen 4 pts, pelvis 4 pts.
    The vehicle was eligible for a pole impact test, since it had
    head-protecting side airbags. The vehicle earned the
    maximum two points in this test.
    PEDESTRIAN PROTECTION: Marginal
    The front edge of the bonnet scored no points for the
    protection provided to pedestrians' legs. The head of a
    struck adult or child would be offered predominantly poor
    protection by the bonnet.

    PEDESTRIAN PROTECTION

    Tested by Euro NCAP v5.1
    Child head impacts 1.62
    Adult head impacts 3.34
    Upper leg impacts Zero
    Lower leg impacts 5.66
