Update 2024: The Mercedes-Benz G-Class EQ is a variant of the G-Class. Some additional tests and checks have been done to ensure that the rating of the G-Class, tested in 2019, applies to the electric variant.
Euro NCAP performs a series of crash and safety tests on car models:
- a frontal impact test, the car impacts a rigid barrier
- an offset frontal impact test, 40% of the width of the car is striking a deformable barrier
- a pole test, the tested car is propelled sideways into a rigid pole
- a side impact test, a mobile deformable barrier impacts the driver's door.
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.
Active safety is tested based on the car’s equipment: autonomous emergency braking systems (car to car, with a pedestrian and a cyclist target), lane support and speed assist technologies, and seatbelt reminders.
