Euro NCAP Crash & Safety Tests of Lexus NX 2022
Euro NCAP performs a series of crash and safety tests on car models:
– a frontal impact test, 50% of the width of the car is striking an oncoming deformable barrier, also travelling at 50 km/h
– a frontal impact test, the car impacts a rigid full width barrier
– a side impact test, a mobile deformable barrier impacts the driver’s door
– a pole test, the tested car is propelled sideways
– a far-side impact test, the robustness of the centre airbag is evaluated by two dummies in the front.
A series of pedestrian tests are conducted with different impactors, adult and child head form, lower and upper leg form and whiplash tests are performed on a sled as well as AEB pedestrian and cyclist tests.
Active safety is tested based on the car’s equipment: autonomous emergency braking car-to-car scenarios, occupant status monitoring (including seatbelt reminders), lane support and speed assistance technologies.
