In the frontal offset test, the passenger compartment of the B-Class remained stable. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the knees and femurs of both the driver and passenger. Mercedes-Benz showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions. Protection of the front passenger was good for all critical body areas. In the full-width rigid barrier test, protection of the driver was good or adequate for all critical body areas. For the rear passenger, dummy readings of chest compression indicated marginal protection for that body area but protection was otherwise good or adequate. In the side barrier impact, protection was good for all body areas and the car scored maximum points. 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 injuries in the event of a rear-end collision. A geometric assessment of the rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection. The standard-fit autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system performed well in tests of its functionality at the low speeds at which many whiplash injuries occur.
