In celebration of their 10th anniversary, the New Car Assessment Program for Southeast Asian Countries or ASEAN NCAP recognized vehicle manufacturers who have made initiatives to ensure the best safety performance of their vehicles through the Decade of Safer Vehicle Awards.
Two vehicle models stood out for their consistent 5-star safety ratings since the ASEAN NCAP was founded in 2011. These are the Honda City and Civic.
The latest 11th generation Civic, aside from garnering a perfect safety score (despite being tested using the stricter 2021 to 2025 protocols), also nabbed the Safety Technology Award for its Honda SENSING system, particularly because it managed to apply autonomous emergency braking even for motorcycles.
Another Honda, the Accord also managed to have the Best Forward Facing Child Occupant Protection under the 2017 to 2020 protocols.
For Adult Occupancy Protection, the Toyota C-HR was rated the highest. Toyota also happened to have the most number of 5-star rated cars tested and evaluated during a decade of ASEAN NCAP.
The Isuzu mu-X received the Best Safety Assist Technology for 2020.
Check out the full list of winners below.
Throughout its 10-year history, the ASEAN NCAP tested about 110 models and variants, producing 137 ratings. During this period ASEAN NCAP has also developed three roadmaps that are Roadmaps for 2012 to 2016, 2017 to 2020, and 2021 to 2025.
Under the latest roadmap 2021 to 2025, ASEAN NCAP covers four assessment domains comprising Adult Occupant Protection (AOP), Child Occupant Protection (COP), Safety Assist (SAT), and Motorcyclist Safety. The 2021-2025 roadmap marks a significant milestone for ASEAN NCAP in which we had initiated the development of an assessment pillar that ensures the assessed vehicle avoids collision with vulnerable road users particularly motorcyclists.
