Najnovije sigurnosne nagrade prepoznaju napredak u zaštiti od sudara, a razočaravajuće je to pokazala agencija za sigurnosne standarde Jednog proizvođačaVehicle Euro NCAP objavila je rezultate crash-testa za 15 novih automobila, uključujući Dacia Lodgy, koji je upravljao lošom ocjenom od tri zvjezdice. Svi ostali testirani automobili ukupno su osvojili maksimalnih pet zvjezdica. Lodgy je posebno kritiziran zbog nedostatka tehnologije sigurnosne pomoći, područja koje je postalo važna značajka u procesu testiranja sudara. Njegova niska ocjena sigurnosti mogla bi se pokazati katastrofalnom za uspjeh Lodgysa, ako ikada dođe u Veliku Britaniju, jer se mora boriti s iznimno sigurnim Renault Scenicom i Citroenom C4 Picassom na obiteljskom MPV tržištu. Dr. Michiel van Ratingen, glavni tajnik Euro NCAP-a, rekao je: Razočaravajuće je vidjeti da Lodgy loše prolazi u našim testovima, pogotovo što dolazi samo tjedan dana nakon što je Sandero, označen kao Renault u Južnoj Americi, dobio lošu ocjenu od jedne zvjezdice od strane latinskog NCAP-a. Lodgy je proračunsko vozilo i kupci će prihvatiti kompromise u udobnosti i performansama, ali ne i sigurnosti. Euro NCAP smatra da bi sigurnost putnika trebala biti najvažnija, bez obzira na to koliko plaćaju svoje vozilo. Unatoč tome što je postigao 91 posto bodova za zaštitu odraslih putnika, Land Rover je objavio da treba uklopiti zaštitu od trzaja na novi Range Rover, jedino područje gdje se zaštita smatrala marginalnom. Plug-in hibridna verzija Volva V60 također je dobro funkcionirala, što odgovara rezultatu modela s konvencionalnim pogonom unatoč težini od oko 350 kg više. Novi Volkswagen Golf, Mercedes A-klasa i Ford Fiesta dobili su priznanje za visoku razinu tehnologije sigurnosne pomoći u vozilu. Golf je opremljen multi collision brake sustavom, koji automatski zaustavlja automobil nakon sudara, kako bi se smanjio potencijal za daljnja oštećenja. Njegov proaktivni sustav zaštite putnika dodatno ublažava potencijalne ozljede otkrivanjem predstojećeg sudara i pripremom aktivnih sigurnosnih sustava automobila u spremnosti. Unatoč tome, Golf je postigao relativno niskih 71 posto u kategoriji sigurnosne asistencije, zbog izostavljanja standardnih podsjetnika na stražnji pojas. Fords MyKey tehnologija izdvojena je za posebnu pohvalu. Sustav omogućuje vlasnicima da drugim vozačima osiguraju poseban ključ, koji se može programirati tako da ograniči najveću brzinu, spriječi isključivanje elektroničkih sigurnosnih sustava, kao i brojne druge parametre. Rezultati u cijelosti: Dacia Lodgy – Tri zvjezdice Fiat 500L – Pet zvjezdica Ford Fiesta – Pet zvjezdica Ford Kuga – Pet zvjezdica Hyundai Santa Fe - Pet zvjezdica Mercedes Benz A klasa – pet zvjezdica Mitsubishi Outlander - Pet zvjezdica Opel/Vauxhall Mokka – Pet zvjezdica Range Rover - Pet zvjezdica Seat Leon – Pet zvjezdica Seat Toledo - Pet zvjezdica Škoda Rapid – Pet zvjezdica Subaru Forester - Pet zvjezdica Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid – pet zvjezdica VW Golf - Pet zvjezdica Latest safety awards recognise advances in collision protection, with a disappointing showing from one manufacturerVehicle safety standards agency Euro NCAP has released crash-test results for 15 new cars, including the Dacia Lodgy, which managed a poor three-star rating. All of the other cars tested scored the maximum five stars overall. The Lodgy came in for particular criticism for its lack of safety-assist technology, an area that has become an important feature in the crash test process. Its low safety rating could prove disastrous to the Lodgys success, should it ever come to the UK, as it has to contend with the exceptionally safe Renault Scenic and Citroen C4 Picasso in the family-oriented MPV market. Dr Michiel van Ratingen, secretary general of Euro NCAP, said: It is disappointing to see the Lodgy do badly in our tests, especially coming just a week after the Sandero, branded a Renault in South America, was given a poor one star rating by Latin NCAP. The Lodgy is a budget vehicle and customers will accept compromises in comfort and performance, but not safety. Euro NCAP believes that occupants safety should be paramount, regardless of how much they pay for their vehicle. Despite scoring 91 per cent for adult occupant protection, Land Rover has announced that it is to fit whiplash protection to the new Range Rover, the only area where protection was considered marginal. The plug-in hybrid version of the Volvo V60 also performed well, matching the score of the conventionally powered model despite weighing some 350kg more. The new Volkswagen Golf, Mercedes A-class and Ford Fiesta all received recognition for their high levels of on-board safety assist technology. The Golf is equipped with a Multi Collision Brake System, which automatically brings the car to a halt after a collision, to reduce the potential for further damage. Its Proactive Occupant Protection system further mitigates potential injury by detecting an impending collision and preparing the cars active safety systems in readiness. Despite this, the Golf scored a relatively low 71 per cent in the safety assist category, due to the omission of standard-fit rear seatbelt reminders. Fords MyKey technology was singled out for particular praise. The system allows owners to provide other drivers with a separate key, which can be programmed to limit top speed, prevent electronic safety systems from being turned off, as well as numerous other parameters. The results in full: Dacia Lodgy – Three stars Fiat 500L – Five stars Ford Fiesta – Five stars Ford Kuga – Five stars Hyundai Santa Fe – Five stars Mercedes Benz A Class – Five stars Mitsubishi Outlander – Five stars Opel/Vauxhall Mokka – Five stars Range Rover – Five stars Seat Leon – Five stars Seat Toledo – Five stars Skoda Rapid – Five stars Subaru Forester – Five stars Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid – Five stars VW Golf – Five stars
