In the Mobile Progressive Deformable Barrier test, the test car is driven at 50 km/h and with 50 percent overlap into a deformable barrier mounted on an oncoming 1400 kg trolley, also travelling at 50 km/h.

The Škoda Superb is a corporate twin to Volkswagen Passat and their structure is practically identical. Euro NCAP concluded that the Volkswagen Passat Mobile Progressive Deformable Barrier test results could be applied to the Superb.
