Again, the car scored 5 stars in crash tests for all of the occupants, including whiplash and any other potential injuries. These tests are severe and there are comments like the whiplash comment on the i3 for most cars. You can score 5 of 5 and still have some minor notes like this is. If it was a major problem, the car would have never scored 5 stars for crash protection.

But as many (including me) have said, BMW kinda dropped the ball on this one because the car could have very easily achieved a 5 of 5 overall score if they simply had the rear seat belt and speed limit notification icon included. Seemingly minor things if you ask me and neither of which would decrease the safety of the car for my use as all.
