The brand new Qoros 3 Sedan scored a five-star rating in Euro NCAP crash tests, making Qoros the first Chinese-based automaker to produce a car awarded with the agency’s top safety grade.
In addition, the Qoros 3 Sedan also became the vehicle with the highest Euro NCAP over score so far in 2013 and one of the best automobiles ever tested by the European program.
The Qoros 3 Sedan obtained an 88 percent overall result, which includes a 95 percent rating in adult occupation protection, 87 percent in child occupation, 77 percent in pedestrian safety, and 81 percent in safety assistance systems.
“The safety of our vehicles was one of our key development goals from the start. It’s a crucial demonstration that our customers are the most important consideration and it also says a great deal about the engineering integrity of the car as a whole. So, while we expected a very good result in the Euro NCAP test, we are naturally very happy with how the car performed. The Qoros engineering team invested an incredible amount of time and commitment in developing one of the safest vehicles ever assessed by Euro NCAP.”
