Euro NCAP 5 Stars for 4 cars

Euro NCAP, the organisation dedicated to revealing the safety of new cars has released the crash test results for four vehicles: the Honda CR-Z, the Suzuki Swift, the Citroen C4 and the Hyundai ix35 with all four cars receiving the maximum five star rating.

The results show that manufacturers are rising to the challenges of Euro NCAP’s new rating scheme and are continuing to make safety a priority.

From October onwards, Euro NCAP will be able to offer even more comprehensive guidance to consumers about the safety offered by new cars.

Euro NCAP Advanced will assess those technologies, which are beyond the scope of the current crash tests.

At least one of the cars presented for test had driver assistance technology, which could be assessed by Euro NCAP Advanced.

The organisation will release the findings of its first assessments at the Paris Motor Show on 1st October.
