Technologies for active safety play an increasingly important role; also important in the complex of tests carried out by independent bodies such as Euro NCAP, which based some types of evaluation on these devices, including those on light commercial vehicles. In addition, EuroNCAP has started a few years ago to carry out specific tests, separated from the usual crash tests which give the now well-known safety stars, expressly dedicated to advanced systems that are a prelude to autonomous driving.

NISSAN BETTER THAN JAGUAR

At the end of the tests, EuroNCAP rated it as & ldquo; Very Good & rdquo; Nissan's ProPilot system both in preventing risks and in keeping the driver's attention, giving the same overall rating to Volkswagen ID.5 , which in addition to intervening correctly does not in any case induce the driver to divert attention. More the judgments on the other systems are lukewarm: the Jaguar i-PACE system & egrave; has been cataloged as basic (& ldquo; entry level & rdquo;), which is equivalent to a pass but nothing more. Polestar 2, which was already was subjected to this test last year obtaining a moderately positive grade, & egrave; it was re-analyzed after the remote software update at the end of 2021 and this time it got a & ldquo; Good & rdquo; by virtue of & ugrave; of the best cornering assistance.
