COMMENTS:

The child seat for the 3 year old child was installed forward facing using the ISOFIX anchorages and was able to prevent forward movement during the frontal impact beyond the excursion limits. The Q1.5 was installed rearward facing using ISOFIX anchorages and its protection was also good during the frontal impact. Side Impact: both child dummies were well protected in the side impact. All CRSs that were assessed for installation pass. The marking and instructions in the car in relation to CRS use as well as ISOFIX use were clear and precise, the passenger airbag disabling switch had the proper clear instructions. The Golf offers 3 point belts in all seating positions as standard, and all of them meeting technical international standards and ISOFIX anchorages with top tether in both rear outboard seating positions. All the above explains the five stars in Child Occupant protection.
