2020 Honda City earns 5-star safety rating
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia still doesn’t have the all-new 2020 Honda City, but the good news is when it arrives, we can be sure about its strong safety front. Yes, the new City is just as safe and secure as the ongoing model.
The ASEAN NCAP recently awarded the new Honda City with a perfect 5-start safety rating. The B-segment sedan achieved an overall score of 86.54 points out of 100. The safety scores are listed below -
- Adult Occupancy Protection (AOP): 44.83 points
- Child Occupant Protection (COP): 22.82 points
- Safety Assist Technology (SAT): 18.89 points
Talking individually about each test, in the AOP frontal test, the 2020 City was able to provide excellent protection for the front passenger and driver’s head, chest, and upper leg. As for the lower leg, it received adequate protection. In the side impact test, driver and front passenger’s head and chest area were well protected.
The 2020 City achieved a perfect score in COP for both the front and side-impact protection tests. These tests involved an 18-month olf dummy and a 3-year-old test dummy, both placed in a child seat.
In the SAT, ASEAN NCAP praised the new City for being equipped with a blind-spot monitoring system (available on top-level models). This feature helps to detect both the motorcyclists and other vehicles. Under the ASEAN NCAP’s 2017-2020 testing protocol, the blind spot monitoring system gives a car better chances to avoid potential road accidents.
The model that was tested by ASEAN NCAP was a Thai-spec model equipped with the following safety features-
- Four airbags
- Electronic stability control
- Seatbelt reminder system for both the driver and front passenger
- Anti-lock brakes with electronic brakeforce distribution
- Emergency stop signal system
Honda has not yet revealed the other variants of the City that will be offered in ASEAN countries. However, we won’t be surprised if we receive the same features as the Thai-spec model.
