Global New Car Assessment Programme (GNCAP)

The Global New Car Assessment Programme (GNCAP) is an international initiative that evaluates the safety of new cars produced and sold worldwide. It conducts crash tests and assesses safety features to provide ratings that help consumers compare how well vehicles protect occupants and pedestrians in the event of an accident. GNCAP's goal is to promote safer vehicle designs and encourage manufacturers to prioritize safety, ultimately reducing injuries and fatalities on roads globally. The program also aims to raise awareness among consumers and policymakers about vehicle safety standards.
