Matthew Avery is Strategic Development Director for Euro NCAP - the organisation responsible for giving safety ratings to all new cars, vans and trucks.
In 2018, Euro NCAP analysed the new vehicle market and revealed a huge discrepancy in the safety equipment between cars and vans - even some from the same manufacturer. But what is the reason behind such a difference?
In this episode, we discuss:
- Why there is a discrepancy between car and van safety features
- What the key active safety features are and how they work
- How the manufacturers have responded to van safety ratings
- What the new van safety ratings mean for fleet operators
- What fleet operators need to know when ordering new vans
