The Safest Cars On Sale In Europe Now Are Chinese EVs
The Tesla Model 3 keeps its position as Europe’s safest car, but it too is made in China, and is followed by mostly Chinese cars.
- A compact Chinese electric hatchback has the highest occupant safety score in Euro NCAP history.
- It adds to the growing list of very safe Chinese cars available in Europe.
- All four Chinese cars recently tested by Euro NCAP got the maximum five-star rating, while European cars from BMW or VW got four stars.
But But China’s EVs are cheap junk! What gives?
The Leapmotor B10, the latest EV from the Stellantis-backed Chinese automaker that also makes the tiny T03, scored a very impressive 93% for both adult and child protection and 85% in the safety assist category, being awarded the full five-star rating.
