Other safety features included 87 percent in the “safety assist” category, which rates a vehicle based on the availability of a comprehensive suite of crash avoidance technologies, the statement added.

The EV6’s Multi-Collision Braking system was also highlighted by EuroNCAP. The system automatically applies the brakes after an impact to avoid secondary collisions, and an eCall system that alerts the emergency services in the event of a crash.

Electronic Stability Control, Vehicle Stability Management and seven advanced airbags as standard were displayed and tested.
