有關一些正被爭議的問題，NCAP的OFFICIAL FAQ實際上給出了相應的答複，摘抄幾條：

有關速度

4.       Why have you chosen such a high front impact test speed?  

By carrying out frontal impact tests at 64km/h (about 40 mph) we are simulating a car to car impact where both cars are travelling at about 55 km/h, a speed shown by accident studies to address a high proportion of fatal and severe injury accidents.

有關目的

11.  What is the main purpose of Euro NCAP?  

Firstly, it makes information about a car’s comparative safety rating in its class available to car buyers.
Secondly, it acts as an incentive for manufacturers to improve the safety of their cars. This would represent a significant benefit in injury reduction for both car occupants and vulnerable road users.

有關和相應強製性安全法規的關係

12.     Why not use legislation to improve safety?  

Legislation sets a minimum compulsory standard whilst Euro NCAP is concerned with best possible current practice. Progress with vehicle safety legislation can be slow, particularly as all EU member States’ views have to be taken into account. Also, once in place, legislation provides no further incentive to improve. Euro NCAP provides a continuing incentive.

有關與廠家的關聯

17.     Are manufacturers involved in the tests?  

Each manufacturer is told of the choice of car, variant and options. Preferably vehicles for the tests are acquired anonymously but if this is not possible they are randomly selected. Manufacturers are asked to provide test set up information, to recommend child seats and to make any general comments. They are invited to witness the tests and to say whether they are satisfied with the way the test is run. After the test, they are given the test results and invited to comment on any anomalies when compared with their own data.

(感到非常奇怪的是，如果江鈴此次沒有獲得事先和事後的測試情報的話，這是一個最大的反擊武器。為什麽沒有在這上麵做文章呢？還是實際上是事先知道並參與的？)

有關重量問題

20.     Are large cars safer than small cars?  

In frontal impacts between cars, the occupants of the heavier car or the one with higher structures tend to fare better than those travelling in lighter lower cars. As these effects are currently impossible to overcome, Euro NCAP only makes comparisons within size categories. The rating of a car within its size category is a function of the quality of its safety design.

除此之外，NCAP裏好象沒有提到有關重量限製的問題。而且，按照上述說法重的車比輕的車相應安全(！)

因此NCAP隻在同一重量等級內進行比較。

 

ADAC的測試本來就是非官方的，非強製性的檢查，但是NCAP很有權威性。
