It passed under the new and stricter test parameters
There are several organizations out there dedicated in testing both active and passive safety systems in vehicles. By now, you’re likely familiar with the ASEAN NCAP or ASEAN New Car Assessment Program. It’s the standard used for models sold Southeast Asia and follows the guidelines set by the Global New Car Assessment Program .
Over in Australia, they have the ANCAP or Australasian New Car Assessment Program. Recently, the agency applied more stringent parameters to make it more difficult for automakers to get a five-star rating.Facelifted Toyota Corolla Cross starts at P1.498-M, now only available as a hybridThe first pickup to undergo the tougher test is the redesigned Mitsubishi Triton. Despite the tougher test, the pickup was able to bag the coveted five-star rating.
ANCAP did a comprehensive breakdown of the Triton’s performance, both in active and passive safety systems. In terms of crash protection, the Triton has that covered with the driver’s side offering good protection and the passenger side getting a perfect score. Rear passenger protection isn’t rated as high, though, with a moderate amount of risk for chest injuries. On the flip side, child occupant protection received near-perfect scores.
The Mitsubishi Triton’s advanced driver assist systems were also put to the test. The autonomous emergency braking systems were more than up to par, but ANCAP notes the emergency brakes for going in reverse needs improvement. Generally speaking, however, the systems performed adequately.If you want to see the full, detailed report right down to the nitty gritty details, click on these blue words to see how intensive the tests were performed on the Triton.
