The Audi A3 Sportback, SEAT Leon, ISUZU D-Max, Kia Sorento and Land Rover Defender achieve the maximum five stars. The Honda e settles for four stars and the Hyundai i10 gets three.Both the new Audi A3 Sportback and SEAT Leon sit on the same MQB-II platform as last year’s Golf VIII but now feature a centre airbag to improve far-side impact protection. When it comes to safety, the VW group siblings are in no way inferior to their famous cousin, but it is the Leon that, thanks to more compatible front-end design, has the upper hand with a very creditable 92 percent for Adult Occupant Protection.

The CUPRA Leon not only offers contemporary performance, it is also one of the safest vehicles on the market: after the CUPRA Formentor, the brand's compact car has now also received a five-star rating and thus the top rating in the more stringent Euro NCAP test procedure.The CUPRA Leon achieved high scores in all areas for both the model variants with combustion engine and the plug-in hybrid variants: occupant protection for adults 91 percent, for children 88 percent; Protection of vulnerable road users 71 percent and 80 percent with the assistance systems. Regardless of the engine, every CUPRA Leon has very good prerequisites for making a contribution to more safety in road traffic.The excellent result in the test is no coincidence. The CUPRA Leon can come up with a whole range of safety and comfort technologies. These include the Autonomous Emergency Brake Assistant (AEB), traffic sign recognition, the traffic jam assistant, the light assistant and the pre-crash assistant. In addition, seven airbags including a standard central front airbag, Front Assist with vehicle, pedestrian and cyclist detection, the emergency steering assistant as well as the intersection assistant, the lane departure warning system and the eCall emergency call system make the CUPRA Leon one of the safest vehicles currently available on the market .The CUPRA Leon follows the CUPRA Formentor, which also achieved the top grade. The security organization Euro NCAP revises its test procedures every two years and, thanks to the adjustments made in the past year, it is more stringent than ever before.
Honda’s new electric supermini, the Honda e, represents the state of the art for green driving. It lacks some of the more advanced safety features present in the Honda Jazz but produces a respectable four-star rating in Euro NCAP’s latest tests, nevertheless. The more conventional Hyundai i10 brings up the rear in this batch of tests. In the full-width frontal impact, the driver’s pelvis slipped under the lap belt, a phenomenon known as ‘submarining’. The Hyundai i10 also offers a more limited AEB functionality then some other small cars, and ends up with three stars overall.
