The ASEAN NCAP has officially released its latest safety test results, and the OMODA C5 has emerged as a standout performer. This global model from the Chinese carmaker not only secured a five-star safety rating but also achieved the highest score in its class, earning a total of 88.64 points. This achievement reaffirms OMODA’s unwavering commitment to safety and quality in its vehicles.
The OMODA C5 had already made waves in the automotive industry with its previous five-star safety ratings from two of the world’s most stringent safety authorities—the European E-NCAP and the Australian A-NCAP. In its latest achievement, the OMODA C5 underwent the rigorous ASEAN NCAP safety standards, which included the first joint China-Malaysia test. The vehicle excelled across multiple test categories, scoring perfectly in 11 out of 18 sub-categories, and setting new records in the process. Notably, in the Adult Occupant Protection (AOP) and Safety Assist (SA) categories, the OMODA C5 secured top marks, reinforcing its position as a leader in automotive safety.
Safety is a paramount concern for automakers and is a standard that countries worldwide uphold. From the outset, the OMODA C5 was designed with a user-centric approach, focusing on every detail from material selection and structural design to intelligent configurations. The vehicle has been meticulously engineered to meet global five-star safety standards, ensuring the highest level of protection for users across the globe.
Key to the OMODA C5’s safety performance is its robust construction. The vehicle boasts a 78% high-strength steel coverage rate, with ultra-high-strength steel and hot-formed steel rated at 1500 MPa employed in critical collision protection areas. This design significantly enhances the vehicle’s rigidity, providing exceptional protection in the event of a collision.
The vehicle’s body structure further contributes to its comprehensive safety features. The OMODA C5 incorporates an innovative “caged energy absorption” design, creating a caged energy-absorbing space capsule structure. This design not only makes the vehicle lightweight and strong but also optimizes resource utilization. The “three-way pressure distribution design + bilateral four energy-absorbing boxes” effectively absorbs and disperses collision energy in frontal and side impacts, maintaining cabin integrity. Additionally, restraint systems such as force-limiting seat belts and airbags work in tandem to minimize occupant injuries, ensuring the safety of both drivers and passengers.
The OMODA C5’s safety features extend beyond passive protection. It is equipped with a suite of advanced intelligent driving assistance technologies, including a 360° panoramic camera, full-speed Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Automatic Braking (AEB) System, Blind Spot Detection (BSD), Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (RCTA), Lane Departure Warning (LDW), Lane Departure Prevention (LDP), and 16 other intelligent safety technologies. These features significantly enhance vehicle stability and controllability, reducing the risk of accidents.
The OMODA C5’s impressive performance in the ASEAN NCAP safety test is a testament to OMODA’s innovative spirit and unwavering commitment to quality. As a rising star in the global automotive market, OMODA continues to deliver high-quality products to its users, creating value for customers worldwide through its dedication to excellence.
