Euro NCAP blames Stellantis for a “clear lack of ambition” in the Jeep Avenger’s safety credentials
To encourage the production of safer trucks, Euro NCAP is introducing a new assessment plan that rates driver assistance technology
The all-electric EL6 includes a camera, radar, and a lidar, plus an impressive AEB system
Euro NCAP will deduct safety rating points if certain car functions can’t be operated without using the infotainment screen, but do we really want hard keys to make a comeback?
If automakers want a five-star safety rating, they will have offer physical controls to operate the hazards, wipers, indicators, horn, and SOS function
The Nio ET5 and EL7 both feature a roof-mounted LiDAR that improves their collision avoidance capabilities
The safety organization anounced three new ratings for 2023 but the electric Mercedes still has the top score from 2022
Five of the winners were fully electric, and the sixth was a plug-in hybrid
Frankly, it’s a miracle anyone survived an accident before the year 2000
The Peugeot 408 and the Ford Puma get four stars, unlike the five-star Chery Omoda5, Maxus Mifa 9 and MG 4 from China
The only model from the latest bunch that didn’t achieve the top rating was the DS 9 with four stars
The hatchback had a five-star rating from 2019 but Volkswagen updated it in order to shine under the stricter protocols of 2022
Other five-star earners included the Mercedes EQE, BMW X1 and Mazda CX-60
The investigation is still underway but at this stage it looks like Teslagate may have already fizzled out
The code is specific to testing organizations like EuroNCAP and ANCAP, but what it does is still a mystery
The ORA Funky Cat and WEY Coffee 1 both received five star safety ratings
The Mercedes T-Class and the Cupra Born also got a five-star rating in the latest Euro NCAP tests
Along with its 5-star safety rating, the ID.5’s driver assistance technology is also highly rated by EuroNCAP
