On October 10, the China Automotive Technology and Research Center released the third batch of C-NCAP model evaluation results in 2019. The electric smart supercar SUV Roewe MARVEL X won the five-star safety certification with a comprehensive score of 91.6%, and won the highest rating in the competition. It won the crown, beating SAIC Volkswagen Lavida, FAW Toyota Asia Dragon, Beijing Hyundai Shengda, Chery Tiggo 8 and other models that participated in the test. At the same time, the Roewe MARVEL X is also a pure electric vehicle with the highest active safety score since the implementation of the “C-NCAP Management Rules (2018 Edition)”.
As a highly valuable evaluation in the field of domestic automobile safety, the official evaluation test of C-NCAP consists of three parts: active safety, occupant protection and pedestrian protection, covering electrical safety test, AEB test, real vehicle crash test, whipping test and other items. Users provide systematic and objective vehicle safety information consideration standards. Moreover, all evaluation vehicles are randomly purchased by the C-NCAP management center from 4S stores, and are not delivered by the manufacturer. The media is also allowed to participate in the purchase process to further ensure the fairness of the evaluation.
In this C-NCAP test, Roewe MARVEL X showed a very high safety quality, with a score rate of 100% in the active safety part, which is at the same level as the two luxury brand models BMW X3 and Audi Q5L. -One of the only three full-score models since the implementation of NCAP. In order to protect users’ travel safety in an all-round way, all Roewe MARVEL X series are equipped with All-Time Safety full-time active safety assistance system as standard. It has two “killer features”: ADAS advanced driving assistance system and RDA rearward driving assistance system. Lane departure intervention through LDP System, RCTA rear blind spot monitoring, DOW door opening warning and other ten active safety auxiliary technologies to create “complete” active safety protection.
Thanks to the super-five-star safety standard design, the Roewe MARVEL X can more easily cope with the multi-directional collision challenges in the occupant protection part, and achieved a score rate of 93.62%, ranking first in the score list of this batch of test models. The Roewe MARVEL X adopts a cage body and a large amount of high-strength steel. The body is lightweight and crashworthy. The air curtain multiple protection airbag system reduces occupant collision injuries. In addition, the Roewe MARVEL X battery protection design also meets the most stringent Euro NCAP regulations in Europe. The battery pack is surrounded by an aluminum alloy frame and a thick bottom plate for protection, and it cooperates with six high-voltage circuit safety management strategies to provide an additional guarantee for safe travel. Under multi-dimensional protection, the battery pack of Roewe MARVEL X not only passed the frontal side impact test of C-NCAP, but also remained intact in the 75° side inclined column impact test.
In addition to protecting the safety of the occupants in the car, Roewe MARVEL X also attaches great importance to the protection of pedestrians. A simulation test was conducted on 180 positions in the front of the vehicle that are likely to cause pedestrian injuries, and a complete pedestrian protection system was optimized, including the lightweight engine cover. More than 30 parts and assemblies, including energy-absorbing foam in the panel, bumper, and pedestrian calf protection bar, can protect pedestrian safety to the greatest extent in the event of a sudden collision.
Facing the rigorous C-NCAP test, the Roewe MARVEL X successfully passed the five-star test, and won the first place in the third batch of test models, reassuring users who are concerned about the safety of new energy vehicles with its strong safety performance. Not only that, the Roewe MARVEL X also has super strengths such as breaking a hundred in 4 seconds, a super battery life of 500 kilometers, and standard equipment of twelve luxury technologies in the whole series, bringing users another choice of luxury cars besides the traditional BBA. Coupled with the super user service plan with the largest and widest coverage among the car services on sale, Roewe MARVEL X starts a better car life with super power + super service.
