ANCAP Quick Fact: Raising the bar on vehicle safety

ANCAP is committed to continuing to raise the bar on vehicle safety.

To encourage the early introduction of new vehicle safety features and advanced safety technologies - promoting continuous improvement in vehicle safety - ANCAP has been progressively raising the bar since its formation in 1992.

From 2011, the safety requirements across all star rating levels have increased annually. ANCAP continues to broaden its suite of physical crash tests and introduce performance testing of key life-saving safety assist technologies (SAT).
