有关一些正被争议的问题，NCAP的OFFICIAL FAQ实际上给出了相应的答复，摘抄几条：

有关速度

4.       Why have you chosen such a high front impact test speed?  

By carrying out frontal impact tests at 64km/h (about 40 mph) we are simulating a car to car impact where both cars are travelling at about 55 km/h, a speed shown by accident studies to address a high proportion of fatal and severe injury accidents.

有关目的

11.  What is the main purpose of Euro NCAP?  

Firstly, it makes information about a car’s comparative safety rating in its class available to car buyers.
Secondly, it acts as an incentive for manufacturers to improve the safety of their cars. This would represent a significant benefit in injury reduction for both car occupants and vulnerable road users.

有关和相应强制性安全法规的关系

12.     Why not use legislation to improve safety?  

Legislation sets a minimum compulsory standard whilst Euro NCAP is concerned with best possible current practice. Progress with vehicle safety legislation can be slow, particularly as all EU member States’ views have to be taken into account. Also, once in place, legislation provides no further incentive to improve. Euro NCAP provides a continuing incentive.

有关与厂家的关联

17.     Are manufacturers involved in the tests?  

Each manufacturer is told of the choice of car, variant and options. Preferably vehicles for the tests are acquired anonymously but if this is not possible they are randomly selected. Manufacturers are asked to provide test set up information, to recommend child seats and to make any general comments. They are invited to witness the tests and to say whether they are satisfied with the way the test is run. After the test, they are given the test results and invited to comment on any anomalies when compared with their own data.

(感到非常奇怪的是，如果江铃此次没有获得事先和事后的测试情报的话，这是一个最大的反击武器。为什么没有在这上面做文章呢？还是实际上是事先知道并参与的？)

有关重量问题

20.     Are large cars safer than small cars?  

In frontal impacts between cars, the occupants of the heavier car or the one with higher structures tend to fare better than those travelling in lighter lower cars. As these effects are currently impossible to overcome, Euro NCAP only makes comparisons within size categories. The rating of a car within its size category is a function of the quality of its safety design.

除此之外，NCAP里好象没有提到有关重量限制的问题。而且，按照上述说法重的车比轻的车相应安全(！)

因此NCAP只在同一重量等级内进行比较。

 

ADAC的测试本来就是非官方的，非强制性的检查，但是NCAP很有权威性。
