The Nissan Dualis, a new compact crossover vehicle, has been awarded the maximum five-star rating for adult occupant protection from the European New Car Assessment Programme (EuroNCAP), with the highest ever recorded score for any vehicle. Dualis was awarded 36.83 points out of a maximum 37 points by the independent crash test organisation, receiving almost full scores in Euro NCAP's strict front and side impact tests, as well as a full score for seatbelt reminders. Euro NCAP's Secretary General Adrian Hobbs said "Congratulations Nissan! This is a particularly impressive result for this manufacturer since the Dualis is a new vehicle in this category." In pedestrian protection, the vehicle received two stars, only 0.38 point short of three stars. Currently no vehicle in the small family category has received the maximum four. Dualis is produced at Nissan's Sunderland plant in England and has been developed for markets around the world. It will go on sale in Japan this week and due to arrive in Australia in late this year. | |||||
