Chery's Remarkable Safety Achievement
WUHU, China — Chery has proudly announced that both the TIGGO7 CSH and TIGGO8 CSH have received the prestigious five-star safety rating from the European New Car Assessment Program (Euro NCAP) in its recent evaluation. This significant achievement not only highlights Chery's commitment to enhancing automotive safety but also reinforces its esteemed reputation across the global market.
Understanding Euro NCAP's Rigorous Testing
Euro NCAP is recognized as one of the most credible vehicle safety evaluation organizations worldwide. The organization assesses vehicles based on four critical areas: Adult Occupant Protection, Child Occupant Protection, Vulnerable Road User Protection, and Safety Assist. In the latest assessments, both Chery models performed exceptionally well, garnering scores of 82% for Adult Occupant Protection, 85% for Child Occupant Protection, 80% for Vulnerable Road User Protection, and 78% for Safety Assist. These remarkable scores reflect Chery's unwavering dedication to ensuring safety in its vehicles.
Chery's Commitment to Safety Technology
Chery has continually invested in safety technology since establishing its Safety Test Center in 2000. In 2010, the company earmarked 150 million yuan for the development of Asia's largest crash test laboratory. This facility conducts over 1,500 full-vehicle crash tests and around 80 international regulatory tests each year. These rigorous evaluations simulate extreme driving conditions, assuring consumers of the safety and reliability embedded in every Chery vehicle.
Previous Achievements and Global Recognition
The five-star rating from Euro NCAP adds to Chery's impressive safety track record, which includes prior accolades for the TIGGO7 PRO and TIGGO8 PRO MAX in Australia, both of which also earned five-star ratings from the Australasian New Car Assessment Program (ANCAP). This ongoing success showcases Chery's compliance with stringent safety requirements across various international markets.
Real-World Testing: Beyond the Laboratory
Chery goes beyond laboratory tests by subjecting its vehicles to real-world challenges, ensuring they are robust under extreme conditions. Earlier in the year, the TIGGO7 CSH faced a high-speed impact scenario during a battery underbody scraping test in Mexico and emerged with its structural integrity intact. Similarly, the TIGGO8 CSH underwent over 50 hours of battery immersion testing in Indonesia's humid climate, continuing to operate without issue. These tests exemplify Chery's commitment to building reliable and safe vehicles across different climates and terrains.
Future Directions in Vehicle Safety
Looking ahead, Chery remains steadfast in its “Safety, for Family” philosophy, envisioning a future where everyone can enjoy five-star protection. The company is focused on expanding its lineup of safety-rated vehicles globally, enabling drivers worldwide to experience a high level of safety and confidence on the roads.
