With existing five-star safety ratings from both E-NCAP and A-NCAP — two of the most globally authoritative and stringent new car safety certifications — the brand’s OMODA C5 has been recognised for its exceptional standards of safety with a newly earned five-star safety rating from the ASEAN NCAP.

After undergoing several safety tests to gain the certification, OMODA C5 achieved a total score of 88.64 points, with “perfect” ratings in 11 out of 18 tests, including the Adult Occupant Protection (AOP), Child Occupant Protection (COP), and Safety Assist (SA) tests. With this certification, OMODA C5 has set a strong standard for all models of its class, achieving the highest score overall.

Commenting on this latest accolade, Shawn Xu, CEO of OMODA & JAECOO Automobile International, said: “This accomplishment reflects the meticulous engineering and advanced safety technologies integrated into the OMODA C5, setting a new benchmark for protection in its class.

OMODA C5: Robust Safety Features and Innovative Design
Most notable from the tests conducted for the ASEAN NCAP certification are the OMODA C5’s advanced Adult Occupant Protection (AOP) and Safety Assist (SA) capabilities. Boasting a 78 per cent high-strength steel body composition, with a tensile strength of 1500 Mpa, the car was revealed to be highly effective at maintaining stability and overall cabin safety throughout impact tests of several strengths. Combined with a comprehensive technological system of 16 intelligent safety features, the car promises safe driving that is both intuitive and effortless on UAE roads.
OMODA C5 was officially awarded the 5-star ASEAN NCAP rating during a media press conference held in Kuala Lumpur, where representatives from MIROS presented the certificate to OMODA & JAECOO.
