Not tested by NHTSA
|
The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) provides 3
different ratings -
full-width frontal crash test
,
side impact crash test
, and
rollover resistance
. The frontal crash test indicates how
well the safety features and restraints
will protect an occupant in a head-on
collision. The side-impact test conveys
the chance of a severe chest injury,
while the rollover resistance rating
estimates the risk of rolling over in a
single vehicle crash.

<p>The Suzuki Grand Vitara and Suzuki Vitara were introduced in the 1999 model year, and the Chevrolet Tracker was redesigned the same year.</p>
Dummy movement was reasonably well controlled. The driver door bowed outward and, during rebound from the airbag, the dummy moved up and toward the driver door, hitting the roof rail in front of the B-pillar.
Measures taken from the neck, chest, and both legs indicate low risk of injuries to these body regions in a crash of this severity. Forces on the head indicate that injuries to the head would be possible. Head acceleration from the roof rail hit was low.

Measures taken from the dummy indicate that serious skull fracture and/or brain injuries would be likely in a crash of this severity. Serious neck injuries as well as rib fractures and a fracture of the pelvis would be possible. In addition, loading to the shoulder was excessive.
Measures taken from the dummy indicate a low risk of any significant injuries in a crash of this severity.
The dummy's head was hit by the pillar behind the rear passenger door. This pillar is required by federal standard to provide some protection for occupants' heads.

The dummy's head was hit by the intruding barrier, producing high head injury measures.

Summary:
|
A mighty little SUV for not-so-mighty budgets.
By Martin Padgett Jr., NewCarTestDrive.com
Chevrolet's Tracker is one of the growing number of nicely revitalized Chevrolets. The Tracker has been updated and transformed. It feels equally at home off-road, hauling a small load of furniture, or dealing with the daily commute. |
|
Overview:
|
For many of us, sport-utility vehicles are the stuff of lottery-winning fantasies. Most SUVs cost more than $35,000, many cost upwards of $50,000. But not all of them have to mean a huge deduction from your bank account. Of the truly trail-worthy SUVs, Chevrolet's new Tracker 4X4 is one of the least expensive. And, you might be surprised to read, it's one of the most satisfying. Like other small SUVs, such as Honda's CR-V and Toyota's RAV4, the Tracker fits a number of needs. It's got cubbyholes and storage space galore, places to store everything from mountain bikes to Rollerblades. And though it may be small, the Tracker has the power to cut and thrust through city traffic. With four-wheel drive, it inspires confidence in the wet and snowy months. The Tracker takes small SUVs a step farther than Honda's CR-V and Toyota's RAV4. The Chevy Tracker boasts a sturdy structure underneath its sheet metal that makes it more suitable for serious off-road travel. It's built on a ladder frame. And its four-wheel-drive system offers a low-range set of gears for off-road trail rides and hill climbs. Add in 8 inches of ground clearance, and the Tracker has the goods for any activity, on or off the pavement. So the Tracker might even tug you to an off-road adventure. Chevy's Tracker would make an enjoyable economy car even if it came without the wagon body and off-road gear. But with its tall roof and 4X4 capability, the Tracker makes a strong case as an all-in-one vehicle that suits a wide range of needs. It's a slick piece of work -- and a hip choice if your annual car budget has just one line item.
