“The safety rating for the Hyundai Staria will be well received by families and fleet buyers, with the Staria becoming the third vehicle in the People Mover segment to achieve a 5 star safety rating under ANCAP’s 2020-2022 criteria – the most stringent to date,” said ANCAP Chief Executive Officer, Carla Hoorweg.

The 5 star extended to the Staria-Load van, with additional data from Hyundai confirming that the same safety performance can be expected from all Staria-Load variants with automatic transmission. The Hyundai Staria-Load becomes the first commercial van to score a 5 star safety rating under ANCAP’s 2020-2022 protocols.

“This is a highly-anticipated result for fleets, and a significant step forward from the previous generation vehicle that the Staria-Load replaces.”

“For so many small businesses and tradespeople their vehicle is their workplace. By providing the full suite of available safety specifications in the Staria-Load, Hyundai has shown strong commitment to the safety of Australian and New Zealand road users and we expect this 5 star result will be well-received by fleets and commercial buyers.”

The 5 star safety ratings apply to all variants of the Staria people mover, and automatic Staria-Load van variants.
