Automobile safety rating

An automobile safety rating is a grade given by a testing organisation to a motor vehicle indicating the safety of occupants in the event of a motor vehicle crash, like with the New Car Assessment Program.

In Australia, vehicle safety ratings are provided by ANCAP whose procedures are similar to Euro NCAP.

ANCAP took in 1999 some part of Euro NCAP procedures.

In 2018, ANCAP adopted the Euro NCAP protocols, with the scoring tweaked to the local conditions.

In Europe, vehicle safety ratings are provided by Euro NCAP.

Euro NCAP provides motoring consumers with a realistic and independent assessment of the safety performance of some of the most popular cars sold in Europe.

Established in 1997 and now backed by seven European governments, the European Commission and motoring and consumer organisations in every EU country, Euro NCAP has rapidly become a catalyst for encouraging significant safety improvements to new car design.

In the world, there are nine New Car Assessment Programs.
