20 Jan 2016|3,406 views
The Jaguar XE sports saloon triumphed in Euro NCAP's prestigious Best in Class Cars of 2015 awards, coming first in the large family car category.
The XE has already received the maximum five star rating from Euro NCAP against 2015's highly demanding test protocols. In awarding the XE with best-in-class honours, Euro NCAP praised the high levels of active and passive safety systems fitted to the XE as standard.
Euro NCAP's 2015 test protocols brought in the new full width frontal crash test for the first time, making it harder than ever to gain a five star rating: the XE's light, stiff Advanced Aluminium Architecture and the latest advanced driver assistance systems were fundamental to meeting this challenge. As well as an excellent result for Adult Occupant protection, the XE outscored the competition on Pedestrian Protection and Safety Assist, thanks to features including the deployable bonnet and Autonomous Emergency Braking.
"We set out to develop the driver's car in the segment, but also we wanted to provide outstanding levels of occupant and pedestrian safety. By combining our Advanced Aluminium Architecture with the most advanced technology available we were able to meet all of our targets. The XE has already proven itself the benchmark for vehicle dynamics, and now this Euro NCAP award is recognition that we delivered on safety as well," said Kevin Stride, Vehicle Line Director, Jaguar XE, XF, F-PACE.
