"Safety for All" as Tayron gets five-star Euro NCAP rating

The new Volkswagen Tayron's five-star rating in the latest Euro NCAP test underlines the outstanding safety equipment of the new model and, at the same time, the high standards of Volkswagen.

The Tayron was judged on four criteria: Adult Occupant Protection, Child Occupant Protection, Vulnerable Road User Protection (e.g. pedestrians, cyclists, etc.) and the safety support provided by driver assist and accident prevention systems. Thus, the first-class results achieved by the SUV reflect not only the continuous improvement of safety standards, but also the excellent equipment featuring assist systems for accident prevention as standard.

Under the guiding principle of "Safety for All", Volkswagen has been continuously working on innovations for decades to further increase road safety

The Tayron's entry-level version is equipped with assist systems such as autonomous emergency braking (front assist) with pedestrian and cyclist monitoring, a lane keeping system, lane change system side assist, and front cross traffic assist, among others.

Other standard safety-relevant features include a front airbag for  thedriver and front passenger (with front passenger front airbag deactivation), safety-optimised head restraints at the front and rear, a three-point automatic seat belt with belt tensioner for the outer rear seats, and both acoustic warning and warning lamps for both front and rear unfastened belts.
