Farizon SV sets new safety standard with Euro NCAP Platinum rating

Published on 22 Dec 2024 • 3 min read

Euro NCAP score of 85 points places Farizon SV among the safest vans ever tested.

The Farizon SV, the electric commercial van from Farizon Auto, received a Platinum safety award from Euro NCAP (European New Car Assessment Program) with a score of 85 points, placing it amongst the best options for safe and reliable commercial vehicles. The award also makes Farizon the top-ranked Chinese electric commercial vehicle brand in the Euro NCAP ratings.

As one of the most rigorous and authoritative car crash testing organizations in the world, Euro NCAP’s results provide crucial reference points for global consumers. Although the upgraded Euro NCAP rating standards present a tough challenge for vehicle manufacturers, they ensure that new vehicles deliver the best safety protection for consumers. Farizon SV comes with the latest safety technologies, which has helped the vehicle perform well in Euro NCAP’s tests and showcases Farizon’s consistency on its user-based brand philosophy.

Since 2021, when Euro NCAP extended its ratings to include commercial vans, the organization has assessed over 95% of the vans and commercial vehicles available in the European market to date. In the AEB active braking function test, one of the key ADAS safety domains, the Farizon SV achieved a single score rate of 95% for conditions such as stationary, low-speed driving and other related driving conditions. At the same time, the recognition and response to pedestrian and bicycle crossing and longitudinal driving conditions are also precise and swift, and the maximum longitudinal speed reaches 80 km/h. In addition,the Farizon SV received perfect scores for both Lane Support Systems (LSS) and Occupant Status Monitoring (OSM), fully demonstrating its active safety performance.

The Farizon SV is being introduced to the UK by Jameel Motors, a leading provider of mobility solutions and partner of choice to top automotive brands seeking a global platform for growth, after it joined forces with Farizon Auto, the commercial vehicle division of Geely Holding Group, to distribute new energy commercial vehicles in the United Kingdom.

“The Farizon SV was designed and engineered to meet or exceed European standards in every regard, including safety, and this result is testament to the rigorous testing and development process undertaken by the Farizon team,” explains Andy Carroll, Country Manager, Jameel Motors Farizon Auto. “Van users and fleets of today and tomorrow can choose the Farizon SV with utmost confidence. Not only is it setting new benchmarks in safety, but several world-first advanced technologies, including its born-electric and drive-by-wire platform, means it offers more cargo space, greater range and a more convenient and comfortable driver experience.”

From its launch in the first half of 2025, three vehicle lengths and three heights will be offered in the UK, along with two battery sizes: 67 kWh and 83 kWh. A 106-kWh battery option will follow. Full UK specification and pricing will be announced in due course, along with a date for start of sales.
