Euro NCAP – who is best in class 2022?
Summary

More, electric cars passed the test of safety assistants and crash characteristics with the best score of all tested vehicles. Only one of the vehicles that took a top place is a combustion engine.
To determine the best in class, the weighted sum of the scores in each of the four assessment areas is calculated:

This sum serves as the basis for comparing the vehicles. Vehicles qualify for the title of best in class based only on their rating with standard safety equipment. Additional ratings based on optional equipment are excluded.

– Hyundai Ioniq 6 (large family cars)
– Wey Coffee 01 (large SUV)
