Results
Basis of comparison
All results are compared in reference to one configuration represented by the setup "Male – Euro NCAP Testing position - Middle", which adheres to the requirements of the Euro NCAP Whiplash tests. Resulting loads from this configuration are considered to be "standard" loads. Different seat setting descriptions such as high, low or equal, always refer to the above setting and will inform the user of the rating the seat would receive, i.e. more or less favourable in general.
Seat settings
This seat configuration shows the seat back set in the Euro NCAP testing position. The head restraint is positioned in the highest of the variable positions.

Conclusion
This seat configuration shows an increased distance between the head and head restraint in relation to the "standard" setting which will increase the forces and moments. A slight less favourable effect may be seen in the overall performance.
