Chery Tiggo 9 excels in Euro NCAP crash safety evaluation

The Chery Tiggo 9 has excelled in a recent Euro NCAP (European New Car Assessment Programme) safety test, reinforcing the premium SUV’s safety credentials and engineering integrity. The side mobile barrier test is one of the most challenging, with a deformable barrier (mounted on a troller) driven into the side of the vehicle at 60 km/h. 

The Tiggo 9 exhibited strong passenger protection in this test. A side-impact dummy in the driver’s seat (representing the average male) is placed in the rear seats, while child dummies are placed in restrained systems. The A-, B-, and C-pillars and doors remained intact, ensuring survival space for the occupants. Following the test, the doors on the unimpacted side could be opened, and the seatbelts could be removed without issue.

“From the Tiggo 4 Pro to our flagship Tiggo 9, every Chery is crafted with a focus on safety, reflecting our commitment to protecting what matters most,” commented Verene Petersen, National Marketing Manager for Chery South Africa. “The Tiggo 9’s performance in the Euro NCAP test underscores Chery’s dedication to delivering security and confidence for every driver and their loved ones.”

The airbags deployed as designed, providing the passengers with the required protection. Furthermore, the battery pack and fuel system remained intact, with no damage or leaks, reducing the likelihood of secondary risks in a real-life accident. The Tiggo 9 has 10 airbags, including side airbags, which reduce the risk of severe lung, head, and rib injuries, among other things. 

Chery has engineered the Tiggo 9 to offer maximum occupant protection in a collision. The body structure comprises 85% high-strength steel and 21% hot-formed steel. This allows the body to absorb and channel collision energy away from the passenger cell and prevent deformation that could encroach on the passenger safety cell. 

In addition to the body structure and airbags, the Tiggo 9 is also equipped with E-CALL. This life-saving device can detect if the vehicle has been involved in a severe collision and send the vehicle’s location and other necessary information to rescue services through a built-in communication module. This is handy if the driver and passengers cannot call for help.

Founded in 1997, Euro NCAP is one of the world’s most respected crash safety authorities. Comprising multiple European government organisations and other forces, it conducts rigorous safety certification tests on new vehicles sold in Europe. The test results are an important reference for consumers purchasing cars and promote the improvement of global automotive safety.
