Speaking of the safety crash tests conducted by C-NCAP, many people often criticize the organization for being overly generous with its five-star ratings, particularly when it comes to newer models from independent brands. This can sometimes make it difficult for these brands to claim true safety excellence. However, in the most recent C-NCAP results, some independent brands managed to secure respectable scores. Among the eight vehicles tested, three independent brands earned four stars, with one even receiving a three-star rating. Notable mentions include Jiangling Yusheng and Cheetah. Interestingly, the highly popular Baojun 510, despite being an SUV within the independent brand category, didn't achieve a coveted five-star rating. While this might initially seem disappointing, it’s worth noting that the model's overall performance may not drastically affect consumer interest.
Firstly, let’s acknowledge the achievements of Changan and GAC Chuanqi. Their respective models, the Changan CS95 and the Guangzhou Automobile Chuanqi GS8, both received five-star ratings. These models stand alongside the Volkswagen Tiguan L as benchmarks in their class. So, where exactly did Baojun fall short?
The crash test in question involved the Baojun 510’s 1.5L manual luxury variant. The evaluation consisted of four primary components: a full-width frontal rigid barrier impact test, a deformable moving barrier side impact test, a driver seat whiplash test, and a 40% offset frontal deformable barrier collision test.
In the full-width frontal collision scenario, although the cockpit remained largely intact without significant deformation, and the airbags deployed correctly, the front dummy suffered chest and leg injuries, while the rear dummy experienced neck and chest damage. These issues led to point deductions.
During the side-impact test, the vehicle structure seemed robust, yet the front dummy lost points due to chest injuries.
The driver seat whiplash test yielded a relatively low score of 3.09 compared to other vehicles tested, which generally scored above 3.6. This discrepancy significantly impacted the overall score.
Lastly, in the 40% frontal offset collision, further deductions were made due to injuries sustained by both the front and rear dummies. Collectively, the Baojun 510’s performance in protecting the dummies proved to be a major area of concern. Despite these findings, given the price point of around $670,000 RMB, this outcome is unlikely to deter potential buyers who prioritize affordability over maximum safety features.
In conclusion, while the Baojun 510 didn’t reach the pinnacle of safety ratings, its value proposition remains strong for those seeking an economical yet stylish compact SUV.
