Euro NCAP awards Fiat Idea & Nissan Pathfinder four stars

To provide consumers with the most accurate and timely information concerning the safety of new cars, Euro NCAP has announced its most recent test results.

The two cars most recently tested, Fiat’s small MPV, the Idea, and Nissan’s large off-roader, the Pathfinder, both achieved a four-star rating for adult occupant protection. However, the Idea just achieved a 4 stars score whilst the Pathfinder nearly achieved Euro NCAP’s maximum of 5 stars. It is important to note that the adult occupant rating of cars should only be compared within the same size category.

The Fiat Idea has a head protecting curtain airbag, but is unusual in not being equipped as standard with an airbag to protect the body in a side impact accident. If the Idea had ISOFIX mounts for tethering child seats also fitted as standard, it would have achieved a higher rating for child protection.

Claes Tingvall, Euro NCAP Chairman said, “Wherever possible consumers should insist that their car is fitted with the most complete safety options available, even when manufacturers are not supplying these options as standard. Consumers should continue to remain vigilant in prioritising safety to encourage manufacturers to provide the optimum level of equipment available.”

Euro NCAP’s commitment to consumers ensures that test results are released as soon as possible.
