The Australasian New Car Assessment Program (ANCAP) has released its latest round of results for the Audi Q7, Mitsubishi Pajero Sport and Honda HR-V. All three vehicles tested managed to obtain a full five-star rating from the independent vehicle safety organisation.
First up, the Audi Q7, which managed to obtain a score of 36.1 out of a possible 38 for adult occupant protection. In the full width frontal test, the SUV managed a score 7.42 out of 8, with whiplash protection receiving a “Good” score. The Q7 also managed to score 43.4 out of 49 for child occupant protection and 25.4 out of 36 for pedestrian protection.
The ANCAP safety rating is adapted from tests performed by Euro NCAP, and thus applicable to the 3.0 litre diesel variants. Standard safety features include dual frontal, side chest and side head airbags (curtains), EBD Emergency Brake Assist (EBA), ESC and Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB).
The Mitsubishi Pajero Sport (results based on the Triton pick-up) on the other hand managed to obtain a score of 36.22 out of 37. For the side impact test, the SUV scored a full 16 out of 16, while the frontal offset test netted 15.22 out of 16. Whiplash and pedestrian protection on the other hand, scored “Good” and “Acceptable” respectively for the Pajero Sport.
All variants of the Mitsubishi Pajero Sport fall under the five-star ANCAP safety rating. Safety kit for the SUV include dual frontal, side chest, driver knee and side head airbags (curtains) that come as standard. Other features such as ESC, EBA and EBD are standard on the Mitsubishi SUV as well, with AEB being an option on higher variants.
Lastly, the Honda HR-V nets a five-star rating after achieving an overall score of 36.21 out of 37. The crossover managed to obtain near-identical scores to the Mitsubishi in the frontal offset test (15.21 out of 16), side impact test (16 out of 16), whiplash protection (“Good”) and pedestrian protection (“Acceptable”).
On the Australian-market HR-V, six airbags come as standard (dual frontal, side chest, side head), along with ESC, EBD, EBA, ABS and hill launch assist. However, additional safety features such as autonomous emergency braking, automatic headlights and lane support system are reserved for higher variants. The score obtained (testing done by ASEAN NCAP) is applicable to all variants of the crossover.

Proton apa sudah jadi? Hisap duit rakyat puas puas. Rating also they try to cheat. Then pay off to cover up.
Malu betul. Proton like VW kaki cheat
P1 cheated what rating?
Proton is a disgrace. Don’t know why Malaysians cannot see how just 1 company has made 30 million people suffer with high prices and long burdensome loans.
All the Proton fans also so stupid, they blindly support a failing company and their 9 year loans.
Do you know our high car tax was created just to protect Proton??
If there was no Proton, you can even buy a high end Camry for about RM70k today. After all in US, the cost of a Camry is US22k for a CBU unit. A CKD Camry will cost no more than US$15k in Malaysia
Rakyat not stupid to support Proton, Rakyat limited budget to choose Proton as first car / main car… Rakyat hope local authorities will help “the poor” but infact they prefer cronies to monopoly…
For main car?
So you say sushi is not as reliable? LOL
Before you say p1 is cheaper, why bother with with new sushi, even Altis 2013 can be had at 69k, really low RV nowadays
OMG…where i can get T.Altis year 2013 at 69K only?
year 2013-2014 altis can get around RM73,000 onwards before nego with the owner.. maybe RM69K seems legit.
check out at mudah or any other website.
And those who compare US – bolehland price, please go out from cave. In Thai without Proton, camry basic model costs 149k ady. You are in dreamland to buy it at 70k
Did they crash test the Pajero Sport with a myvi? if not, then this rating is useless. Only little godcar survival test is most important for pajero sport owners.
Lets demo, protest, Bersih in front of Aussie embassy and demand them to retest with myvi as the crash object.
Am i reading this correctly?
“On the Australian-market HR-V, six airbags come as standard (dual frontal, side chest, side head), along with ESC, EBD, EBA, ABS and hill launch assist.”
So that our malaysian spec air bags are only 2 standard to be started with? WTH man, shouldn`t the G or the company make it standard to 6 air bag?
