Independent crash tester ANCAP has announced the first safety rating for the year with a full 5-star safety score awarded to the new 2018 Holden Commodore.
ANCAP Chief Executive, James Goodwin said, “Australian families and fleet buyers have long regarded the Commodore as a trusted local choice and the shift to overseas supply has further enhanced the model’s safety credentials.”
“This next generation Commodore includes safety assist technologies not seen in its locally-produced predecessor, with standard-fit features such as autonomous emergency braking and active lane-keep assist.”
ANCAP has also changed the way safety results are displayed, with percentages awarded in four key assessment areas being Adult Occupant Protection, Child Occupant Protection, Pedestrian Protection and Safety Assist.
The ZB Holden Commodore scored an impressive 93 per cent for Adult Occupant Protection. Child Occupant Protection came in at 85 per cent with Pedestrian Protection and Safety Assist scoring 78 per cent and 77 per cent respectively.
The 5-star ANCAP safety rating applies to all Commodore liftback, sportwagon and tourer variants available in Australia and New Zealand.
