China's Farizon van gets ringing endorsement from Euro NCAP
By CARSIFU | 24 December 2024LONDON: The Farizon SV, the electric commercial van from China's Farizon Auto, received a Platinum safety award from Euro NCAP (European New Car Assessment Program) with a score of 85 points, placing it amongst the best options for safe and reliable commercial vehicles.
The award also makes Farizon the top-ranked Chinese electric commercial vehicle brand in the Euro NCAP ratings.
From the Farizon SV launch in the first half of 2025, three vehicle lengths and three heights will be offered in the UK, along with two battery sizes: 67kWh and 83kWh. A 106-kWh battery option will follow.
As one of the most rigorous and authoritative car crash testing organisations in the world, Euro NCAP’s results provide crucial reference points for global consumers.
Although the upgraded Euro NCAP rating standards present a tough challenge for vehicle manufacturers, they ensure that new vehicles deliver the best safety protection for consumers.
Farizon SV comes with the latest safety technologies, which has helped the vehicle perform well in Euro NCAP’s tests and showcases Farizon’s consistency on its user-based brand philosophy.
Since 2021, when Euro NCAP extended its ratings to include commercial vans, the organisation has assessed over 95% of the vans and commercial vehicles available in the European market to date.
In the AEB active braking function test, one of the key ADAS safety domains, the Farizon SV achieved a single score rate of 95% for conditions such as stationary, low-speed driving and other related driving conditions.
At the same time, the recognition and response to pedestrian and bicycle crossing and longitudinal driving conditions are also precise and swift, and the maximum longitudinal speed reaches 80kph.
In addition,the Farizon SV received perfect scores for both Lane Support Systems (LSS) and Occupant Status Monitoring (OSM), fully demonstrating its active safety performance.
The Farizon SV is being introduced to the UK by Jameel Motors.
Farizon Auto is the commercial vehicle division of Geely Holding Group.
“The Farizon SV was designed and engineered to meet or exceed European standards in every regard, including safety, and this result is testament to the rigorous testing and development process undertaken by the Farizon team,” said Jameel Motors Farizon Auto country manager Andy Carroll.
