Nissan Xterra2005-08 modelsFRONTAL OFFSET TESTOVERALL EVALUATION: GoodStructure/safety cage Injury measures Restraints/dummy kinematicsHead/neck Chest Leg/foot, left Leg/foot, rightGood Good Good Acceptable Acceptable GoodImportant: Frontal crash test ratings can be compared only among vehicles of similar weight.Test details:The Nissan Xterra was redesigned for the 2005 model year.Restraints/dummy kinematics � Dummy movement was well controlled. After the dummy moved forward into the airbag, it rebounded into the seat without its head coming close to any stiff structure that could cause injury.Injury measures � Measures taken from the head, neck, and chest indicate low risk of injuries to these body regions in a crash of this severity. Forces on both tibias and feet indicate that injuries to the lower legs and feet would be possible. (Note: during the test, some injury data from the right leg was not obtained, but after the Institute reviewed comparable test data from Nissan, the right leg injury rating was not changed.)
