Pedestrian protection

Euro NCAP believes more effort by manufacturers in Pedestrian Protection would save the lives of many pedestrians and negate the emotional trauma encountered by many drivers every year as they live with the consequences of injuring or fatally wounding a pedestrian. With inclusion of the pedestrian score into the overall rating, Euro NCAP aims to encourage improvement of vehicle performance in this assessment. Euro NCAP’s results in this rating are achieved through leg form, upper leg form and child/adult head form testing.
