bahrain motoring news - The Safest Vehicle Ever

The experts of the European New Car Assessment Programme (Euro NCAP) have awarded the BMW iX the highest possible rating of five stars in the Euro NCAP safety assessment. According to their report, the BMW iX operates at the highest level of safety with its purely electric drive and comprehensive range of digital features.

The BMW iX achieved five-star ratings in all test categories of the Euro NCAP crash test. In the assessment of adult occupant protection, the testers highlighted the effectiveness of the new interactive airbag between the driver and front passenger seats, which provides additional protection against injury in the event of a side collision. 

Child safety in the rear of the BMW iX was also given the highest possible score for both frontal and side collisions. Among other features, the BMW iX has a front collision warning system with brake intervention that can detect pedestrians and cyclists as well as vehicles. 

In addition, the automatic emergency braking system now also reacts in turning situations, helping to minimise the risk to pedestrians when turning and the risk of collision with oncoming traffic when turning left.

The BMW iX also features an active bonnet, which is raised automatically as soon as the car indicate a corresponding collision.
