The Fiat Croma has been awarded the prestigious Euro NCAP 5-star rating, which puts the car at the top of its segment where safety is concerned.

It is an important acknowledgement, underlining the attention that Fiat Auto pays to every aspect of the protection of drivers and passengers.

To achieve these excellent results, the designers took into consideration every possible type of accident: head-on and side-on collisions, overturning, rear collisions and fire. They also analysed the different speeds at which impact may occur, the different types of obstacle and the protection of occupants with very different physical features.

In total, the testing added up to:

- 18,000 hours of calculations
- 120 crash tests
- 100 crash simulations on HyGe sleds
- 200 tests on components and subsystems
- 10 new types of performance specifications and test procedures
- 8 co-design suppliers of specific structures for passive safety (2 of which were involved exclusively in the planning and development of safety devices).

There’s no doubt that the Fiat Croma is a car designed and built to achieve the highest levels of quality, interior reliability, technological innovation and safety, as the Euro NCAP rating now confirms.

The Fiat Croma will cost-effectively retail from R215 000-00.
