The AEB and Lane Support systems available for the Toyota Hilux with Safety Pack is also shown. The Toyota Hilux has two star ratings: one based on the safety equipment which is fitted as standard to all cars in the range (3 stars) and another which also includes an optional safety pack called 'Toyota Safety Sense' (5 stars).

Brussels, 31 August 2016 - The safety ratings of four new cars are published by Euro NCAP today: the Kia Niro​, Renault Scenic​​, Subaru Levorg​ and the Toyota Hilux​.

The Renault Scenic and the Subaru Levorg, both equipped as standard with Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), achieved maximum five-star ratings. Kia and Toyota opted for dual ratings for their cars, with AEB as part of an optional safety pack: the Kia Niro gets four stars with standard equipment and five with the option pack*; and Toyota’s new Hilux gets a three-star rating with standard equipment and five with the pack**.

The Toyota Hilux and Kia Niro were tested under Euro NCAP’s new ‘Dual Rating’ system, which means that the default rating is based on standard safety equipment available throughout the range. Additional tests are done to determine what the result would be when an optional safety pack is fitted.

Euro NCAP Secretary General, Michiel van Ratingen, said, “It is always good to see safety equipment being fitted as standard, and Renault and Subaru deservedly get top safety ratings for their cars. The fact that Toyota are making advanced safety technologies available on pickups, even if only an option at this stage, shows that the Dual Rating scheme is a great way to encourage broader fitment of these systems across all types of vehicles.”
