The Stars Align for Mazda MX-30 and Honda Jazz
12th November 2020
Euro NCAP publishes its third round of results today, putting two small family cars to the test: the new Honda Jazz and Mazda’s first all-electric vehicle, the MX-30. Both sign off with a complete set of stars.
The Honda Jazz, first sold in Europe in 2002, now exclusively comes with a hybrid engine. Along with its modern drivetrain technology, the latest model is also equipped with the most up-to-date safety equipment, including autonomous emergency braking and an all-new centre-mounted airbag that protects driver and front passenger against injuries in far-side crashes. With 5 stars under its belt, the new Honda Jazz makes a worthy rival to the Toyota Yaris, tested earlier this year.
Euro NCAP’s Secretary General, Michiel van Ratingen, says
Euro NCAP also publishes a 2019 rating for the BMW 2 Series Gran Coupé, which is based on the 1 Series tested last year. The Mercedes-Benz EQV, an all-electric version of the V-Class, shares that vehicle’s 2014 star rating.
