Hummer H3
2006-08 models
FRONTAL OFFSET TEST

OVERALL EVALUATION: Acceptable
Structure/safety cage Injury measures Restraints/dummy kinematics
Head/neck Chest Leg/foot, left Leg/foot, right
Good Good Good Good Poor Good

Important: Frontal crash test ratings can be compared only among vehicles of similar weight.
Test details:

The Hummer H3 was introduced in the 2006 model year.

Restraints/dummy kinematics — Dummy movement was well controlled. During rebound, the dummy's head contacted the side curtain airbag, which had deployed during the crash.

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 the right tibia indicate that injuries to the lower leg would be likely.

    The H2 and H3 are not not based on the Military's Humvee, the H1 was based on it.

    H2 & H3 are just useless gas hogs.

    Though it's not an expert opinion, I think it's grossly unacceptable that a heavy, reinforced, bulky MILITARY-derived car like the H3 doesn't perform with anything less than stellar results. Ridiculous!

    Seatbelts are to stop you from hitting the side pill~ Imagine a situation when you hit a car frontally, all airbags open. Then after 10 seconds you get hit by another car from eg. left side... U r dead because airbags are already empty...
