Here is a new video of the new Honda BR-V undergoing its ASEAN NCAP crash test. As previously reported, the model obtained top marks in its recent tests. Available as a five or seven seater, it achieved a five-star total of 14.79 points out of a possible 16 in the Adult Occupant Protection (AOP) and a four-star, 72% compliance score in the Child Occupant Protection (COP) tests.
However, to be eligible for the maximum five-star safety rating by the safety organisation in AOP tests, cars must at least be fitted with electronic stability control (ESC) and seat belt reminders for both front passengers. The BR-V in the video above does not have those two items, and therefore gets four-stars.
How individual markets in the ASEAN region specify their versions of the BR-V determines if or not it is rated with four or five stars. “This crossover hatchback (BR-V) is eligible for dual rating. Four-star AOP for variants without ESC and seat belt reminders (SBR) for both front occupants, while BR-V variants equipped with such technologies receive a five-star AOP rating,” the ASEAN NCAP explains.
However, regardless of the availability of ESC and SBR, COP test results remain unchanged – four-stars with 72% compliance. Watch the video above and see the Honda BR-V, without ESC and just two airbags, undergo the official crash test.

Aoseh, our Asean NCAP cannot be trusted lah. Toyota got 2 airbags and no VSC also can score high. In overseas, no VSC, terus fail and get 1 star
here even our Perodua and Protons have no ABS also. Don’t even talk about no VSC. Yet can score many stars.
How to trust ASEAN Ncap?
You go live in oversea then, We don’t need basher like you… Proton top sales this year and long live AP system !!!
Go out from cave, Iriz got VDC in every variants
Moving coffin p2/toyota can go straight to afterlife
Again we witness Proton Sendiri Cakap Sendiri Syok here.
If Proton sales good, why need RM1.5bil soft loan?
If Proton safe, why Proton drivers have the highest death rate on the road?
Big boss of Ancap like to makan nasi lemak. Give him angpau and nasi lemak and some KFC for his children, sure can get 5 stars.
Give marukku or putimayam much better and drink todi kill all wife & kids no need buy 5 star car.Right,Muniandy?
OMG…i wondering will BRV sell here? it should be cheaper than HRV, then will again sell like hotcake…
@Muniandy, Protons no ABS score many stars?
Please read more lah.
there goes my hope to buy brv
expecting 5 star
Iriz scored 14.07/16 in the test and got 5 stars. So how come this BRV which scored 14.79/16 which is higher but only got 4 stars. It is due to no ESP. Should BRV be launched in Malaysia and ESP is given at the top spec then its gonna be 5 stars rating.
Grand Livina only scored 12.50/16, Innova 14.10/16 so technically this BRV scored really well
so buy the ones that come with esc la
Same question, when BRV come to msia?
Honda Malaysia, please update, thanks.
