It is seen that this week many cars have performed the Euro NCAP tests and many of them have achieved the maximum 5 -star score. Several examples of this rain of Euro NCAP stars are golf 7, skoda rapid and subaru foreter.
Golf 7
In the case of Golf 7, the total security package, which consists of occupying protection, child protection, pedestrian protection and driver assistance systems, has earned the highest distinction in terms of safety.
The new golf was awarded the maximum qualification for its protection of the occupants. To achieve this assessment, front and lateral impact tests were carried out, a lateral post -impact test and what is known as the cervical whiplash, in which the charges of the cervical column are measured in a rear collision. The tests were carried out with mannequins of adult size, young people and children under 3 years of age, which demonstrated security for all occupants, regardless of their age. The new golf also stood out for its ability to protect pedestrians.
On the other hand, the seventh generation golf offers a wide range of driver assistance systems, such as the standard multicolision brake and the optional proactive system of occupational protection, the safety package can be personalized and expanded with the optional adaptive cruise control, front assist with emergency braking in the city, fatigue detection capacity and lane lane lane lane lane, maintenance assistant. This makes a total of seven driver assistance systems offered in the new golf and that significantly improve vehicle safety. The multicolision brake has been recognized by ADAC with the Innovation Award "Yellow Angel". This automatically activates vehicle brakes after severe collision to reduce residual kinetic energy. The objective is to avoid a complete secondary shock or at least significantly reduce the speed in the impact. Statistics show that around a quarter of all accidents cause secondary collisions, which are especially dangerous, since the occupants do not have the protective effects of the airbags and safety belts. As in all Volkswagen's assistance systems, the driver can choose to replace the multicolision brake at any time.
The fatigue detection function and the proactive protection system of the occupants are no longer exclusive to the Premium. The latter detects, in combination with other dynamic parameters of the vehicle, especially critical driving situations and reacts with any intervention of CES or braking.
In the case of a later collision, driver safety belts and front passenger are automatically tense to ensure the protection of the occupants, thanks to the joint work of the airbag and the seat belt. In case of imminent drag accidents, the system closes the side windows and sliding ceiling so that safety systems, such as head and side airbags can offer optimal support and efficiency. As soon as the danger situation is over, the seat belt is dismissed.
Skoda Rapid
The Skoda Rapid has received the 5 Euro NCAP stars thanks to the complete protection of adult occupants, where it obtained a positive result of 94%, with the maximum score for the passengers in front, both in front and lateral impacts. The mannequins also left almost unscathed from the demanding impact test against a post.
The Škoda Rapid also obtained a good note in the protection of children, achieving the maximum score in the dynamic tests that evaluate the protection of children under three years. Neither the frontal impacts nor the sides damaged the mannequins in the Škoda isofix children's seats mounted on the back. Globally, Škoda got 80% score in the child security field.
The Euro NCAP also gave a favorable score to Škoda Rapid in pedestrian protection, since the behavior of collision bumper obtained a fully satisfactory result. The bumper is designed to reduce the impact on pedestrian legs on a collision as much as possible. The hood had an especially high note in the areas where a child could receive an impact on the head.
The five -star score of Škoda Rapid was also due to safety assistance systems, with special mention to ELE electronic stability control (standard in EU countries) and reminders of driver's safety belts and the companion.
The Škoda Rapid has a complete safety package that protects occupants in case of accident by front, lateral and head airbags, safety belts of three anchor points, adjustable in height and tensioners, and headrest. The rigid vehicle body has excellent deformation behavior in case of collision.
In addition, the Škoda Rapid includes the ESC with ABS in the EU countries. A long wheelbase, a precise suspension and a rigid body structure make up the basis for a stable driving dynamic. Functions such as the tire pressure indicator, the fog lights with the so -called "curve function" and slope starting control for pronounced ascents enhanced in excellent safety level of Škoda Rapid.
Subaru Forester
When the Forestry Subaru all we know is that it has achieved the best assessment in protection in side shocks and in pedestrian safety benefits of the front bumper.
