Farizon SV Electric Van Earns Five-Star Euro NCAP Rating and ANCAP Platinum Grading: The Complete Safety Picture for Brisbane

The Farizon SV has achieved a five-star Euro NCAP commercial van safety rating and an ANCAP Platinum safety grading with an overall score of 84 per cent. Together, these two independent assessments provide the most complete picture available of the Farizon SV's safety credentials, drawing on testing conducted in both Europe and Australia.

For Queensland businesses, fleet operators, and owner-operators evaluating a battery-electric commercial van, this combined result makes the Farizon SV one of the most thoroughly validated options in the segment. The full range is available now through Barton Motor Group.

Understanding the Two Assessments

Before reading the scores, it is worth understanding what each program tests and why both results are relevant to Australian buyers.

Euro NCAP's Safer Trucks and Vans programme is the most comprehensive commercial van safety assessment available globally. It evaluates commercial vans across three areas: Safe Driving (the in-cabin systems that support the driver), Crash Avoidance (the active systems that prevent collisions), and Post Crash Safety (what happens after an incident). Euro NCAP awards one to five stars. The Farizon SV earned five stars in the 2025 assessment, placing it amongst the highest-rated vans in the programme.

ANCAP's Commercial Van Safety Comparison is a separate Australian and New Zealand programme that focuses specifically on the fitment and performance of active collision avoidance systems. It awards gradings (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum) rather than stars and is conducted independently of Euro NCAP. The Farizon SV earned a Platinum grading at 84 per cent in ANCAP's assessment.

Neither programme is a traditional passenger car star rating. They assess commercial van safety technology, not occupant crash protection through physical impact tests. This means the results cannot be directly compared to a five-star passenger car result, but they provide an independently verified, standardised benchmark for evaluating the active safety capability of the van.

Euro NCAP Five-Star Rating: The Full Scorecard

The Farizon SV (tested model: 200 kW, 66 kWh, H3L2 body configuration) achieved the following results in Euro NCAP's 2025 Safer Trucks and Vans assessment:

The five-star rating applies to model year 2024 onwards.

ANCAP Platinum Grading: The Full Scorecard

The Farizon SV (all Australian variants, built from January 2025) achieved the following results in ANCAP's Commercial Van Safety Comparison, assessed in 2024:

Safe Driving: 60% (Euro NCAP)

Occupant Monitoring and Driver Engagement: Full Marks

The Farizon SV scored the full 25 out of 25 points for occupant monitoring, covering seat belt reminders for both the driver and front passenger, fitted as standard. Driver engagement scored the full 25 out of 25 points, reflecting the standard-fit driver monitoring system that can detect fatigue-related driving patterns and alerts the driver accordingly.

These two sub-categories represent a strong baseline. Both seat belt reminders and driver monitoring are standard across all variants.

Vehicle Assistance: 10 out of 50 Points

This is the area where the Farizon SV's Safe Driving score is held back, and it reflects three specific gaps in the Australian specification.

Speed Assistance (10 out of 30 points): The Farizon SV is fitted with a camera-based system that reads local speed limit signs and displays the current limit to the driver. However, the van does not include a speed control function that actively limits vehicle speed to the posted limit. Euro NCAP's methodology awards maximum points for active speed limiting capability. Without this function, the SV scored 10 out of 30, representing only the points awarded for the information display.

Adaptive Cruise Control (0 out of 15 points): ACC has not been assessed as part of the current Euro NCAP rating and scored zero. This does not necessarily mean it is not available on the van, but it was not included in the assessed specification.

Steering Assistance (0 out of 5 points): Steering assistance is not available on the Farizon SV.

The 60 per cent Safe Driving score is directly a product of these three gaps. The occupant monitoring and driver engagement systems themselves are fully capable; it is the vehicle assistance package that drives the lower category result.

Crash Avoidance: 85% (Euro NCAP) and Good Across All Forward Categories (ANCAP)

Frontal Collisions: Car AEB

The Farizon SV's car-to-car AEB system returned 38.20 out of 40 points in Euro NCAP's frontal collision testing. Performance against stationary vehicles was good across all offsets and consistent at most test speeds, tailing off only slightly at the highest speeds. Against slower-moving and braking vehicles, the SV scored full points. Both the Euro NCAP and ANCAP assessments rated car-to-car AEB performance as good.

The AEB system operates from highway speeds down to low urban speeds, covering the full range of conditions relevant to commercial van operators.

Frontal Collisions: Pedestrian and Cyclist AEB

Pedestrian and cyclist AEB scored 22.20 out of 25 points in Euro NCAP testing, with collisions avoided in most scenarios. Both the Euro NCAP and ANCAP assessments rated pedestrian and cyclist AEB as good.

Lane Departure Collisions: Maximum Points

The Lane Support System (LSS) scored the full 25 out of 25 points in Euro NCAP's lane departure collision testing, a perfect result. The LSS gently steers the vehicle when it drifts out of lane, intervening more aggressively in critical situations to prevent the van leaving the road. Lane departure warning and blind-spot monitoring are both standard. ANCAP's assessment also rated lane support as good.

Low-Speed Collisions (Backover): Not Available

The Farizon SV does not have low-speed backover AEB, scoring 0 out of 10 in this Euro NCAP sub-category. ANCAP's assessment similarly noted the absence of AEB Backover. For operators who regularly reverse in tight loading areas, pedestrian zones, or busy car parks, this is a practical gap to plan around.

Post Crash Safety: 80% (Euro NCAP)

Rescue Information: 80 out of 90 Points

The Farizon SV scored 80 out of 90 points for rescue information, covering the rescue sheet and guide for first responders. This is a strong result in this sub-category.

Advanced eCall: Not Available

The Farizon SV does not have an advanced eCall system, scoring 0 out of 5 in this element. eCall automatically alerts emergency services in the event of a serious crash. For operators who value connected emergency response, this is worth noting.

Occupant Extrication: Not Available

Occupant extrication assistance scored 0 out of 5. This feature relates to post-crash support systems for emergency responders.

What Comes Standard on the Farizon SV

The following active safety features are standard across all Australian Farizon SV variants:

• Autonomous emergency braking: car-to-car, pedestrian, and cyclist (forward scenarios)
• Lane support system: lane departure warning (LDW), lane keep assist (LKA), and emergency lane keeping (ELK)
• Blind spot monitoring (BSM)
• Driver monitoring system (DMS): fatigue detection and alert
• Seat belt reminders (driver and front passenger)
• Speed limit information function (SLIF): camera-based display, read-only

Not available on any Australian Farizon SV variant: AEB Backover, active speed control function, steering assistance, advanced eCall, occupant extrication support.

The Combined Picture: What the Two Assessments Tell Us

Taken together, the Euro NCAP five-star rating and ANCAP Platinum grading give Queensland buyers a clear view of where the Farizon SV is strong and where its limitations lie.

Strengths: Car-to-car AEB performs well at all tested speeds. Pedestrian and cyclist AEB is effective in most forward scenarios. The lane support system achieved maximum points in Euro NCAP testing. Driver fatigue monitoring and seat belt reminders are both fully capable and standard.

Limitations: No active speed limiter, which affects the Euro NCAP Safe Driving score and the ANCAP speed assistance result. No backover AEB. No eCall. The absence of these features is consistent across both programmes and reflects the current Australian specification of the van.

For businesses building a case for electric van adoption, the combined result is meaningful evidence that the Farizon SV's active safety technology performs at a high level, validated by two independent programmes on two continents.
