The Plus Test

The Plus Test is a voluntary crash test for manufacturers. The crash test is regulated by UNECE R129, a European approval standard, which imposes higher requirements for protecting the child’s neck in severe frontal collisions. The test is used both as guidance for parents and as support in the development of safer child restraint systems.
