AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)12/19 Report--

A few days ago, the European Euro-NCAP announced the latest crash test results, in the list of many five-star evaluation models, the emergence of domestic independent models. SAIC HS and pure electric EZS together won the highest level of five-star safety in Euro NCAP (European Union Association for New car Safety Evaluation).

In the global market, the collision tests of Euro-NCAP (European Association for New car Safety Evaluation) and IIHS (American Highway Safety Insurance Association) belong to the authoritative automobile safety certification bodies, adhering to professional and stringent standards, comprehensively testing vehicles from the four parts of "adult occupant protection, child occupant protection, pedestrian safety protection and safety auxiliary system".

In the crash test, Mingjue HS scored 92 per cent and 81 per cent for driver and passenger protection respectively, while active safety and traffic participant protection scored 76 per cent and 64 per cent respectively, compared with mediocre performance, but the car received a five-star rating because of its balanced overall performance.

Similarly, the performance of EZS is almost similar to that of HS, which is slightly lower than that of HS, but also has a five-star rating. The car scored 90% and 85% in driver and passenger protection, respectively, while active safety and traffic participant protection scores were 70% and 64%, respectively.

It should be proud of domestic cars to get such a rating, but some netizens have questioned it, thinking that domestic cars and models exported to Europe may be different, and even netizens said that it would be better to go to China Insurance Research Institute for a crash test.

Of course, it is not surprising that netizens have such an idea, as there were also celebrities involved in E-NCAP 's release of the final crash test results in 2017, and that time ZS was only rated by Samsung as the "first collision" of Euro NCAP.

Among the specific results, the adult occupant protection of Mingjue ZS was only 71%, just exceeding the passing line; child occupant protection, pedestrian protection and safety assistance were 51%, 59% and 29% respectively, all of which did not reach the passing line; failed in three subjects, resulting in Mingjue ZS has only a Samsung rating.

Perhaps in view of the fact that the two collision tests have been two years apart, Mingjue has also made a big improvement in the "defect", making this result a great improvement. If this is really the case, it should be praiseworthy, after all, as a high evaluation of domestic independence and foreign authority.

It is worth noting that in this batch of crash tests, there is also a domestic model "battle", that is, the new power car company Aichi U5, which is going on sale tonight, is divided into four models with a subsidized price of 19.79-292100 yuan. Aichi U5 based on MAS platform, positioning A+ class pure electric medium-sized SUV model, the overall use of simple design style, NEDC operating condition life display is 503km.

However, in the E-NCAP test, the car was only rated by three stars, including 73% for adult occupant protection, 70% for child occupant protection, 45% for pedestrian protection and 55% for safety assistance, which is obviously inferior to that of famous nobles, but also higher than that of famous baron ZS.

In any case, any collision test is only a reference value, the more tests you participate in, the more direct and clear information you get, and the more valuable reference information consumers will have when choosing vehicles. But this time Aichi encountered a "blow in the head" before the listing, and it can not be guessed that this will also be the first "threshold" after the listing of Aichi U5.

According to SAIC's latest sales figures, Mingjue sold 27308 vehicles a month in November, up 18.5 per cent from a year earlier to 235503 vehicles from January to November, up 6.5 per cent from a year earlier.
