VinFast Awarded ASEAN NCAP Safety Certifications

VinFast, the automotive unit of Vietnam’s largest business conglomerate, Vingroup, recently achieved safety certifications for three of its car models from the New Car Assessment Program for Southeast Asia Countries (ASEAN NCAP).

The region’s automobile safety rating organization granted the highest safety certifications of 5-stars to two of VinFast’s flagship models, the Lux SA2.0 and the Lux A2.0, while its versatile city car, the Fadil, was granted 4-star rating.

During collision tests, the Lux SA2.0 earned 46.45 out of 50 points for Adult Occupant Protection (AOP) and 22.73 out of 25 points for Child Occupant Protection (COP), meanwhile the Lux A2.0 scored 46.89 out of 50 for AOP, and 21.81 out of 25 points for COP.

The safety certifications are testament to the success of VinFast’s ambitions to provide customers in ASEAN with high-quality and affordable vehicles designed and made in Vietnam. The company is projecting production of 500,000 units per year by 2025.

Having made its international debut at the Paris Motor Show in 2018, VinFast will also serve as the title sponsor of the first-ever Formula 1 Vietnam Grand Prix 2020, another significant achievement for both Vietnam and VinFast as the Formula 1 World Championship will be celebrating its 70th anniversary next year.
