Genesis Motor Europe revealed that the GV60 has been awarded a five-star Euro NCAP safety rating.
GV60, the brand’s first dedicated electric vehicle, arrived in studios earlier in June 2022 and has now secured the maximum five-star rating from Euro NCAP, Europe’s leading independent safety testing organization.
The news follows similar top scores for G70 and G80 saloon, G70 Shooting Brake, GV70 and GV80 SUV, which means all of Genesis’s European range tested by the Euro NCAP organization is now five-star Euro NCAP rated.
As with the other Genesis models, GV60 scored highly against the key Euro NCAP assessment criteria. Notably, in the areas of Adult Occupant, Child Occupant, Vulnerable Road Users and Safety Assist. Notably, the GV60 returned excellent results of 89%, 87% and 88% respectively.
During crash testing, Euro NCAP noted the impact stability and protection afforded by the GV60’s passenger compartment during frontal collisions and the side barrier test, scoring strongly in both areas. The all-electric GV60 was also highly rated for child occupant protection, both for those in child seats and older children.
Particular praise was reserved for the brand’s patented center airbag, which can inflate in just 0.03 seconds and helps to protect the driver and front passenger in the event of a side impact.
In the Safety Assist category, the GV60’s many advanced driver safety systems allowed it to record high scores across the board. For instance, its Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) system attracted top marks for both its effectiveness in avoiding car-to-car collisions and its sensitivity in warning drivers about vulnerable road users, such as cyclists and pedestrians.
