Euro NCAP Crash & Safety Tests of Škoda Octavia 2022

The Škoda Octavia was originally assessed in 2019. The updated car has been reassessed against 2022 protocols, with some 2019 tests carried over where applicable.

Euro NCAP performs a series of crash and safety tests on car models:
- a frontal impact test, 50% of the width of the car is striking an oncoming deformable barrier, also travelling at 50 km/h
- a frontal impact test, the car impacts a rigid full width barrier
- a side impact test, a mobile deformable barrier impacts the driver's door and the robustness of the centre airbag is evaluated
- a pole test, the tested car is propelled sideways into a rigid pole.
A series of pedestrian tests are conducted with different impactors, adult and child head form, lower and upper leg form and whiplash tests are performed on a sled as well as AEB pedestrian and cyclist tests.
Active safety is tested based on the car’s equipment: autonomous emergency braking car-to-car scenarios, occupant status monitoring (including seatbelt reminders), lane support and speed assistance technologies.

Why is offset crash only 50 now? I thought it was 64 for goodness knows how long. I think 60-80 head on is more real world.

Perfect Skoda car. Well done Skoda Mlada Boleslav.

3:10 Is there something wrong with the new Skoda that doesn't move more precisely between lanes?
My 2015 model works better. I have driven more than 5 km, sometimes pushing the steering wheel a bit, while the horn sounds.

VW performs badly as expected. Not as bad as BMW but still abysmal Safety Systems.
