ANCAP released the names of models who performed best in this year’s “2022 criteria” testing regime.
From January 2023, ANCAP and Euro NCAP will include a car’s ability to avoid a motorcyclist, the ability to reverse brake if a child is detected behind a car, and how easy a car is to get out of should it become submerged.

Australasia's independent voice on vehicle safety, ANCAP SAFETY, has revealed the results of its first side-by-side comparison of autonomous emergency braking technology across Australia's top 10 selling vehicle models.
