supermini category - the
Renault Twingo also did quite well,
receiving a four-star result in adult occupant protection with an overall score of 28 points.
No child protection rating was available for the Twingo as there was not enough space to fit Renault’s recommended child restraints in the rear seats with the front seats set to Euro NCAP’s test position for adults.
