EuroNcap today released its revised crash test results for the sixth-generation Volkswagen Golf. Despite the stricter and more comprehensive assessment criteria of EuroNCAP's updated crash test programme, the German hatchback gained the highest score of five stars. Since February 2009, a vehicle must receive a minimum value in all four categories (adult, child and pedestrian protection, plus safety assist) as well as in the overall assessment to gain a five star award.Additionally, in the new assessment procedure, electronic safety and assistant systems such as ESC (electronic stability control) that help to prevent accidents and avoid serious injury are also included in the evaluation.
