Front impact
The passenger compartment remained stable in the impact. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the front seat passengers' knees and femurs. Skoda showed Euro NCAP that occupants of different sizes, or those sat in different seating positions, would be equally well protected.
Side impact
The Superb scored maximum points for its performance in the side impact and pole tests.
Child-protection
Based on dummy responses in the dynamic tests, the Superb scored maximum points for its protection of the 1½ year dummy. The passenger airbag can be disabled to allow a rearward facing child restraint to be used in that seating position. However, information provided to the driver regarding the status of the airbag is not sufficiently clear. There was no adequate warning of the dangers of using a rearward facing child restraint without first deactivating the airbag. The presence of ISOFIX and top-tether anchorages in the rear outboard seats was not clearly marked.
Pedestrian protection
The bumper scored maximum points for the protection offered to pedestrians' legs. The bonnet surface provided mostly fair protection in the area where a child's head might hit. However, the bonnet was rated as predominantly poor for the protection offered to an adult's head and the front edge of the bonnet scored no points.
put in a babycariiage with ease.. almost like u could stuff in two :) this really is the ideal solution for a family person who wants lots of space, slight luxury but a reasonable price tag, well done skoda.

(despite the much shorter legspace in the leather passat backseat u feel somewhat cooler tho? can't explain this, possibly has something to do with the nice armrest and doorhandle :D) and altho its about the same width as passat u feel a bit more free in it, more relaxed, also seats are not so tight, and checking prices in latvia... u get slightly more package by paying even around 1.5k eur less than you would buying a passat, + the awesome splitting boot,

i drove it today, and being a passat b6 owner i can say that it is a passat...
altho longer wheelbase and slightly more luxurious feel to it, but u can feel in the steering and the way it handles and so on, that underneath the skin it's about the same car...
but it has a bit more "confidence" in it's presence and the way it holds the road... love the size of the interior, lovely relaxation in the back seats,
