Chery UAE Proves Safety Excellence in Latest Crash Test Evaluations
Chery UAE, in partnership with AWR Group, has reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to driver and passenger safety with the exceptional performance of the Chery TIGGO 9 in recent Euro NCAP-standard crash testing. The results underscore the brand’s philosophy that safety is a fundamental promise not just another feature.
In a full-frontal rigid barrier crash test conducted at Chery’s state-of-the-art safety lab in China, the TIGGO 9 impacted a solid wall at 50 km/h, simulating one of the most severe real-world accident scenarios. The outcome: flawless structural integrity, no deformation of the A-pillar or door areas, and full deployment of the restraint system, including airbags and seatbelts. Both front and rear crash test dummies showed no critical injuries, attesting to the vehicle’s superior occupant protection systems.
TIGGO 9’s performance is not limited to frontal collisions. It has previously undergone and passed Euro NCAP’s mobile progressive deformable barrier (MPDB) and side mobile deformable barrier tests at 50 and 60 km/h respectively. These tests mirror complex crash conditions from varying angles, and Chery’s flagship SUV excelled in all, solidifying its five-star safety standing.
This safety record is underpinned by cutting-edge engineering. The TIGGO 9 is built with a “cage-style energy-absorbing space capsule” design, utilizing high-strength steel in 85% of its body, including 21% hot-formed steel with a tensile strength of 1300 MPa. An ultra-wide 1500mm front crash beam covers 78% of the vehicle’s width, supported by three high-efficiency crash boxes. These enhancements ensure remarkable energy absorption and structural resilience under impact.
