About the ratings

Our five-star rating system involved analysing each structural windscreen pillar within the vehicle and giving it a weighting, according to its impact on the driver's vision.

The test procedure uses a laser pointing device and a dummy to represent an average adult size.

The laser is directed around the forward facing 180 degrees of the cabin of each vehicle. The thickness of each pillar that is likely to affect the driver's vision is measured in degrees of rotation. The results are analysed and an overall score is given. The best scores are awarded to the vehicles where the pillars have the least effect on the driver's vision.

A low star rating means a driver's vision is more affected by blind spots compared to a car with a higher star rating. The more stars the better the result.
