Nice informative thread usman bhai. but sad part is that these do not apply to us. In the local MFG cars

because the govt is least interested to bring about any improvement in the auto sector!

Appreciate the updates UsmanAnsari! anyone have any idea about the star rating for a Honda Civic 1995 (which I own)? Just out of curiosity

Is liana inproduction in other countries or is this our Liana???

Liana is still produced in China while its sales are hopeless, even less than 100 units per month in world's largest car market.

In recent months several Chinese cars have reached the 5-Star safety requirement from the Chinese crash testing authority, CNCAP. Now C-NCAP are planning to raise requirements to get a 5-Star safety standard in their 2012 standards that they are assembling this week.

The current crash test speed used in CNCAP is set at 56kph, but that is going to be raised to 64kph under 2012 guidelines. Also due to China’s congested traffic CNCAP will introduce rear end crash testing, pedestrian crash testing and will also add in female crash test dummies to gauge the level of safety in a car crash to a females head and breast area.
C-NCAP will also be testing for passive and active safety measures and will give extra points for ESP and ABS systems

In the short term it is expected that the number of Chinese built 5-Star cars will fall, but as Chinese manufacturers gain speed they will once again catch up and begin to receive 5-Star rewards.

Until now only the American crash testing authority tested for rear end safety, but with China adding the test in and also the effects on female passengers in a crash, it appears that C-NCAP is going to be among the strictest testing bodies in the world in the next few months.

C-NCAP to get tougher standards

[UsmanAnsari]

Kia Soul - 4 stars (43.8 points)
Hyundai Accent - 5 stars (47 points)
Great Wall Voleex C30 - 5 stars (46.4 points)
Buick Excelle GT - 5 stars (47.4 points)
VW Magotan CC - 5 stars (47.8 points)
GAC Trumpchi- 5 stars (48.8 points)

best score in this test session was of GAC Trumpchi, and both the Chinese cars managed to get a 5 star result!

[UsmanAnsari]

Huatai B11 40.2 ★★★★
Kia K5 50.7 ★★★★★
Volkswagen Polo 45.4 ★★★★★
Nanjing MG3 47.1 ★★★★★
Linian Everus S1 40.4 ★★★★

Very impressive results by the Nanjing MG3 and Kia K5 (which is the best score ever in C-NCAP!)

C-NCAP, the Chinese crash testing authority, recently set up another round of car smashing and let us know the results. Although the C-NCAP is tested at a slightly slower speed than the Euro NCAP the rest of the test is quite comprehensive. However due to the ever increasing number of cars gaining a 5 star status, C-NCAP are raising the rules for 2012 onwards. More on this later.

In the latest round 3 Chinese cars (including the Everus) and 2 joint venture made cars were put through the ringer and all achieved notable results. The MG3 and New Polo both received 5 stars, which goes to show that SAIC are capable of building a safe vehicle, Guangzhou-Honda’s S1 which sits under the Everus sub brand received 4 stars although this is essentially the old Honda City with a badge change so its 4 star rating cannot be commended as being anything special. Kia’s K5 was awarded 5 stars, but the big surprise was Hawtai’s own B11 sedan that achieved 4 stars, which is not a bad effort for an SUV maker that only recently branched out into making sedans.

Changes will be made to the current C-NCAP rules to make the test more stringent and improve safety across the board of domestic and international car makers in China. C-NCAP will be introducing some special tests such as the 40% rear off set crash test to see how vehicles protect rear passengers and will also raise the test speeds used in the tests and also award extra points for equipment such as ESC (Electronic Stablizing Control) being installed on the vehicle. The new rules will be implemented as of July 1st 2012 which should give manufacturers plenty of time to adjust and build to the new regulations.

C-NCAP smashes more cars, also raises the rules for 2012

Gasgoo.com (Shanghai October 12) - The new China-New Car Assessment Program management rules have been unveiled, jfdaily.com reported today. The new provisions, which have been repeatedly revised, are expected to go into effect next July. The rules will usher in sweeping reforms for the C-NCAP and have been the focus of media attention for months.

According to Li Wei, assistant to the director of the China Automotive Technology and Research Center and head of the testing department, large revisions have been made to the rating standards, speed requirements and programs for the C-NCAP's crash test. For the first time, rear seat passengers will be accounted for in the test. Additionally, low speed crash tests will be introduced, while the inclusion of other safety systems, such as ESC and ESP, will be considered while scoring. Total scores will increase from 51 to 62, while the star system will also be modified.

Officials from the C-NCAP Management Center are confident that the new standard will help raise the overall safety of automobiles on the road today. With the five stars rating being harder to obtain than before, consumers and manufacturers are sure to increase awareness of automobile safety. According to the C-NCAP, the upcoming standards are vastly different than the current ones. "From now on, [manufacturers rated by] the C-NCAP should clearly point out which version was used and what time the tests were done," in order to prevent consumer confusion, Mr. Li Wei advised.

New standards for C-NCAP announced

The China Automotive Technology and Research Center announced the new fourth C-NCAP crash test standards in Tianjin last week, wccdaily.com.cn reported today. At the same time, the CATRC announced the crash test ratings for twelve more passenger vehicles, with three domestic own brand sedans earning ratings of five stars. The new standards will be universally implemented on July 1 of this year.

Six of the models tested this time were from joint ventures, listed as follows: the Buick GL8 (Shanghai GM), eight generation Hyundai Sonata (Beijing Hyundai), Toyota Reiz (FAW Toyota), Honda City (Dongfeng Honda), Citroën 508 (Dongfeng Peugeot) and Kia Sportage-R (Dongfeng Yueda Kia). The Sonata placed the highest out of the group with a score of 50.7 points, earning a rating of five stars. Following successful tests of the Honda CR-V, Honda Accord and Kia K5, the Sonata is the fourth model to garner a score of over 50 points. The five other JV models also managed to earn five stars.

Domestic own brands accounted for the other six models tested. Among them, the JAC Heyue, Geely's Emgrand EC8 and BYD S6 all managed to earn five star ratings. The EC8 scored 49.6 points, only 0.4 points under the 50 point threshold, while the Heyue and S6 each scored 46 points. Meanwhile, the Tianjin FAW Weizhi V2 and Changan CX20 only managed to score three stars, while the Haima Family earned four.
The CATRC tested a total of 29 models over the course of last year, with 62 percent of those earning five star ratings. However, with the new system becoming standard this year, the vehicles will have to be tested again, during which their grades may fall.

The CATRC is looking to improve Chinese standards to match international levels, Director Zhao Hang said. The new C-NCAP standards are a large part of that. Among the changes, the new standards will take into account safety of passengers sitting in the rear seats, increase head-on collision test speed to 64 km/h, as well as introducing new tests to measure safety features such as ESC. The overall score will be increased from the current 51 points to 62 to accommodate the modifications.
