Heavy SUVs and electric cars pose “safety concern”, says European crash tester
Euro NCAP – the European counterpart of local crash-test body ANCAP – has expressed concern about the growing weight of electric cars.
Customer preference for SUVs and increasingly-heavy electric cars poses a threat to other road users, according to crash-test body ANCAP's European sister organisation Euro NCAP (European New Car Assessment Program).
“This is a trend that helps neither safety nor the environment: big, heavy cars are generally less energy efficient than small, light ones, and there is a safety concern when those two types of vehicles collide or, worse, when vulnerable road users are involved.
