3 About Euro NCAP Our goal is to help eliminate road trauma by encouraging safer vehicle choices MESSRING GmbH & Euro NCAP

4 Overall Rating The star rating captures the essence of Vision Zero and promotes: Standard fit Top performance Best practice MESSRING GmbH & Euro NCAP

5 Evolution of 5-Stars First results published under overall star rating MESSRING GmbH & Euro NCAP

6 Market Coverage Aspiring to be 5 star remains an important driver of the safety of new cars on the market 71% sold 16% sold 7% sold 6% sold Unrated MESSRING GmbH & Euro NCAP

7 Strategic Planning Keeping up with developments in the automotive industry Roadmap 2020 Roadmap Roadmap Overall Rating 2017 Scheme MESSRING GmbH & Euro NCAP

8 Recent Rating Updates Advanced restraints for rear seat occupants New provisions for child passengers Cyclist detection Pedestrian detection Rear-end collision mitigation Intelligent Speed Assistance MESSRING GmbH & Euro NCAP

9 Availability of Safety Technology MESSRING GmbH & Euro NCAP

10 Roadmap 2025 Euro NCAP will continue to challenge vehicle manufacturers to offer the best possible safety as standard in all car segments and markets, protecting car occupants of all ages, gender, and sizes and to also look out for the other road users in traffic. Overall Safety Rating New and improved safety technology Automated Driving Consumer information about AD functions Other Road Users Safety of trucks, PTW, etc. In Pursuit of Vision Zero MESSRING GmbH & Euro NCAP
