Global NCAP has improved road safety in other countries & has the ability to improve road safety standards in Africa. The latest results show an improvement on what we’ve seen in the past, no zero or one star cars & we hope to continue our partnership to have #SaferCarsForAfrica.

Our third round of #SaferCarsForAfrica results highlights significant differences between adult & child occupant protection. We encourage manufacturers to provide the levels of safety performance necessary for all passengers, whatever their age. https://gncap.org/2I0Pzby
November 21, 2024 at 11:47 AM
Only the Avanza offers three-point seatbelt for all passengers. The poor Child Occupant Protection rating is explained by the detachment of the rear bench from its anchorages to the structure causing excessive forward movement with no protection to the head. #SaferCarsForAfrica

Our President @DavidDjward: “@GlobalNCAP welcomes the four star performance achieved in our latest #SaferCarsForAfrica crash test results but is disappointed in the levels of protection provided for child occupants, the most vulnerable of car passengers.” https://gncap.org/2I0Pzby
November 21, 2024 at 11:37 AM
The #Suzuki Ignis achieved three stars for Adult Occupant Protection & one star for Child Occupant Protection. The South African Ignis has 2 airbags & #ABS as standard while the EU model offers 6 airbags & #ESC as standard. Full video: https://youtu.be/xtLT7h84Kz0 #SaferCarsForAfrica
