Toyota Innova Hycross adult occupant protection 

Misses out points for chest protection.

In the frontal offset deformable barrier test (14.47/16), the Innova Hycross provided good protection for most of the body for both driver and passenger, but chest protection was only adequate. It, however, secured full marks in the side movable deformable barrier test (16/16) and was also rated ‘OK’ in the side pole impact test.

Toyota Innova Hycross child occupant protection 

COP score among the highest in BNCAP tests so far.

In the child occupant protection (COP) test, the Innova Hycross secured 45 out of 49 points. It got full points in the dynamic test (24/24) and the CRS installation test (12/12) and 9 out of 13 in the vehicle assessment test. The 18-month-old and 3-year-old child dummies were tested in rearward-facing child seats, secured by ISOFIX anchorages and a support leg. The Innova Hycross gets ISOFIX anchorages on the outboard rear seats but misses out on an integrated child restraint system.
