The C-NCAP (Chinese: 中国新车评价规程) is a Chinese car safety assessment program. It is primarily modeled after safety standards established by Euro NCAP[3] and is run by the China Automotive Technology and Research Center (Chinese: 中国汽车技术研究中心).[4]
Mandatory labeling
[edit]Since 2020, it is mandatory to show a safety label with all display vehicles in Malaysia. The printed information does not show the presence of anti-lock braking system, electronic stability control, tire-pressure monitoring system, hill-holder, intelligent speed assistance, crash eCall, presence eCall, drunk driving, fatigue, or distraction warning and anti-theft and lack of keyless technology as features. It does not seem that NCAPs less strict than the local one or which do not penalize flammability, fire toxicity, lifecycle toxicity, true climate impact, water impact, worker and population impact, biodiversity impact, weak cybersecurity, or heavy or pedestrian-unfriendly vehicles are banned.[5]
