Chery Malaysia is proud to announce that the Chery  OMODA 5 has achieved the coveted 5-star rating in the New Car Assessment Programme for  Southeast Asian Countries (ASEAN NCAP) safety evaluation. 

This outstanding recognition underscores Chery's unwavering commitment to delivering  superior safety and quality in its vehicles. 

The current ASEAN NCAP 2021–2025 assessment protocol encompasses four assessment  domains, with Adult Occupant Protection (AOP) covering 40.00 points of the overall score,  and Child Occupant Protection (COP), Safety Assist Technology (SA), and Motorcyclist Safety  (MS) each contributing 20.00 points of the overall score.  

The Chery OMODA 5 is the first model under the Chery brand to be evaluated by the ASEAN  NCAP. In this assessment, the OMODA 5 demonstrated a strong commitment to vehicle  safety, achieving a total score of 88.64 points and earning a prestigious 5-Star ASEAN  NCAP rating.  

The breakdown includes 36.77 points for Adult Occupant Protection (AOP), 17.36 points for  Child Occupant Protection (COP), 19.51 points for Safety Assist (SA), and 15.00 points for the  Motorcyclist Safety (MS) category. 

Highlights of the Chery OMODA 5's Safety Performance: 

• Frontal Impact: The OMODA 5 successfully passed the ASEAN NCAP frontal collision  test, which simulates a crash where the car hits a barrier at 64 km/h with a partial front  impact. In the test, dummies representing an average adult male are placed in the driver  and front passenger seats, while two child dummies—a 3-year-old and a 1.5-year-old— are secured in the back seats. This test confirmed that the vehicle provides effective  protection for the driver, front passenger, and children in the event of a collision. 
• Side Impact Test: The OMODA 5 successfully passed the ASEAN NCAP side impact  test, which evaluates how well it protects occupants during a side collision. In this test, a moving barrier hits the side of the vehicle at 50 km/h. A dummy representing an adult driver  is placed in the front seat, while two child dummies—a 3-year-old and a 1.5-year-old—are  seated in the back. The results confirmed that the vehicle provides strong protection for  the driver and child passengers in the event of a side impact collision. 

• Pedestrian Protection Test: The Chery OMODA 5 also received top score in pedestrian  protection, a critical aspect of the ASEAN NCAP evaluation, ensuring the safety of all road  users. 
• Blind Spot Detection Assessment: A critical safety feature, Blind Spot Detection  ensures areas the driver cannot see are monitored. The Chery OMODA 5 excelled in this  area, achieving a perfect score for detecting blind spots on both the driver and passenger  sides of the vehicle. 

“Achieving the ASEAN NCAP safety rating is a testament to our continuous commitment to  safety, innovation, and most of all to our customers. This rating is not just a badge of honour;  it is a promise to our customers that our OMODA 5 cars are built with your safety in mind as  our highest priority,” said Michael Chew Chery Malaysia Vice President.  

Chew added that the rigorous testing and evaluation process by ASEAN NCAP covered various aspects of vehicle safety, including adult occupant protection, child occupant  protection, safety assist technologies, and motorcyclist safety. 

“OMODA 5’s high scores across the four categories demonstrate our comprehensive  approach to safety and our dedication to continuous improvement,” said Chew during the  media announcement of the Chery OMODA 5 ASEAN NCAP in Kuala Lumpur. 

The Chery OMODA 5’s advanced safety features played a pivotal role in achieving this  recognition. These features encompass multiple airbags, advanced driver assistance systems  (ADAS), electronic stability control (ESC), anti-lock braking system (ABS), and more.  Together, they form a robust safety network designed to protect occupants and help prevent  accidents.
