Crash Test: LEAST Safe and SAFEST Vans - Crash Avoidance System Test

- Euro NCAP reveals the 2022 list of the best and worst commercial vans available on the European market, based on an evaluation of crash avoidance system fitment and performance. The picture that emerges is one of slow but steady improvement, with several vans being better equipped than they were a year ago, with systems that perform better than they did. Where manufacturers have made more substantial updates to their vehicles, big performance improvements are seen and one - the FIAT Ducato - becomes the first van to achieve the top platinum rating.
Last year, Euro NCAP drew attention to the poor level of fitment of safety equipment to commercial vans. As the workhorse of choice for couriers and small businesses, these vehicles spend a lot of time on the road where, because of their size and mass, they represent a larger hazard to smaller vehicles and vulnerable road users if they are involved in a collision. New legislation will force van manufacturers to fit basic avoidance systems, already widely available on passenger cars, in a few years’ time. In the meantime, Euro NCAP’s commercial van ratings aim to encourage manufacturers to fit more advanced systems more quickly.
For this release, Euro NCAP revisited nineteen vans representing the lion’s share of commercial vans sold in Europe. Only one van assessed was rated as ‘Not Recommended’, as opposed to five last year. While the FIAT Talento has been discontinued, the Opel/Vauxhall Movano is now built on a new Stellantis platform and gets a bronze medal. The Renault Master has also gained a bronze medal this year, thanks to small but notable improvements to its speed and lane assistance systems. Its twin, the Nissan Interstar (previously the NV400), also gets these improvements, however, for the time being, still lacks an Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) system and so remains in the Not Recommended category.
The Renault Trafic has been re-engineered and its safety extensively improved since it was last tested. It now has a robust AEB car to car as an option and jumps to a silver medal ranking, making it one of the most markedly improved vehicles this year.
The new FIAT Ducato, however, is the clear winner, claiming the top spot on this year’s list. Last year ranked bronze, the vehicle has had a major safety make-over and now features an advanced sensor set, offering AEB pedestrian and AEB cyclist, and excels in these tests. The Ducato’s 88 percent overall score sees it leapfrog the competition to become the first platinum-rated commercial van. Sadly, the other Stellantis vehicles with which the Ducato shares its platform - Peugeot Boxer, Citroën Jumper and Opel Movano - did not get the same equipment upgrade and remain in lower medal positions than their FIAT counterpart.

Now fill them up to the max operational weight, and test again!
They're already loaded up a fair bit, more than half their payload on average by the looks of it.
E.g a lot of the larger vans seemed to have 7-900kg on board
@@Mcmerc01 Cool so if it kinda hits you now, and gets a kinda good score, all can just worsen from this fact from both perspective... Good to know..
@@ledgeri yep, with more weight we can only guess, but realistically the brake distance etc would get affected.
I wonder if the systems compensate for it
@@Mcmerc01 If the speed is the same (same situation), and the reaction distance/time is the same (why would it be ever set to not be the best possible?), also the traction between the road and tyre, and between the brake disc and brake pad is the same, we still have more energy to convert, what will take more time, and hece distance.
If you hear az ABS-ed tyre scream a bit, that is on edge already! On these footages you can see, sometimes at the last 1-2 cm/inch the tyres slides even, at that moment they are overpushed!
@@ledgeri More weight is more traction for braking. If the tire pressure and such is correct the difference should not be very big. An empty truck takes longer to stop than a fully loaded one since the suspension is set up for hauling.
The FIAT was a surprise
Maybe if you know nothing about motors
@@richardwilkinson4419 who tf are ye lmao
Ducato the best!
90% of the worlds supercars come out of Italy ,,, your telling me they wouldn't know how to make a basic van ?
@@richardwilkinson4419 it looks like you know nothing about manufacturing lol
🥇🏆 1. Ford Transit
🥈 2. Fiat Ducato - 🥈 2² Ford Transit Custom
🥉 3. Mercedes Vito - 🥉 3³ Wolkswagen Expert
Mercedes Vito👎
1. Fiat Ducato
2. Ford transit
@@AlexandrosNikias 🤗👍👍👍
@@AlexandrosNikias Ford Transit is definitely the owner of the first place. it is both durable, technological and light fast. You will understand that the life of jafif commercial vehicles is Ford ❤️
@@mierpiero261 However, according to the results, the fiat ducato outperformed the ford transit.
Allways thought vans lacked the safety equipment that car have these days.For example when my company buys a van the safety equipment isn't top of list but I'm driving around town and country in all weathers these features will be optional extras companies won't pay for them private buyers might.
Good job Fiat 💪🏻
Best of Ford commercial vehicles 🔥🔥
Ducato çok şaşırtıcı bir sonuç almış. Hâlâ inanamıyorum.
Fiat artık eski Fiat değil koskoca otomobil grubunun bir parçası şuan Euroncap'de en yüksek güvenlik derecesi Ducatoda.
ya bak bazı volvo fanları fiatı sinirlendirdi (!)
@@ozcanarduc9711 Zaten çok güzel anlamına getiriyo
o artık dünyanın arabası
Good job ducato
Fiat Professional best!
Şaşırtıcı. Ford transit ve Fiat Ducato. Ducato süpriz gerçekten. Vito dan daha iyisini beklerdim. Fransızlar da hayal kırıklığı olmuş.
Fiat Ducato "3" Très Bien 😊 👍 aussi Citroën Jumper "2" , aussi Peugeot Boxer "2"
Ford Transit (USA 🇺🇸) Très Bien 😊 👍
Mercedes-Benz Sprinter ça va 👍
Fiat Ducato and it's rebaged brothers did well
this video is for the Fiat Ducato lovers👍🏻
Fiat 🔥
4:21 That's impressive.
But it would kill that cycler lol
No way, this is a cool van test
Fiat done good and the Rams do good over here
I'm guessing it also has to do with its round flat front.
@@bjthedjdutchdude1992 maybe but my Chrysler 300 does the same stuff and it doesn't have a nose like that at all
@@Julian-do7bv that's because they are two different vehicles.
Ram promaster in us is the equivalent of Fiat Ducato in EU. The 22my promaster will perform like the Ducato platinum, trust me
@@aceofsticks Are the promasters also available with manual transmissions?
Hello friends I really liked this video, full sapot bro
Transit the Van!
Waoooooo fiat
Mdr citroen jumper j aime bien mais il me fait rire le devant
Ford
I wonder how much they pay those people to walk in front of the car to test if it stops.
Why is havent the renaults commeracial wehicles
That white car didn’t seem to be safe at all…..
Maybe a conclusion to this?
Erschreckend!!!!
Okay it's good , but what is the cost ?
Fiat it's very good.
My car has 345 000 kms
Waoooooo iveco super
İsterse hiç freni olmasın konforu için yine Vito tercih ederim.

Damn😯
and the pedestrian died, but of a heart attack
HYUNDAI H350???
Back when they built strong cars, they all had steel front and rear bumpers, and not a
One of them got totaled from a front or rear impact. And we did not worry about the pedestrians, because if they are stupid enough to walk out into traffic, it was their fault, not the driver.
Toyota 😄😁😆
👏👏👏👍
Master ve trafik nıye yok
Master 'da şerit ortalama asistanı yok. O yüzden test edilmemiş olabilir. Trafik'i bilmiyorum.
Fiat and ford best
Я не вижу что-то буханку, с её дикими тормозами.
Все фигня без валить
Соболь наш российский протестируйте так😂
Results : all shit
Ford
