C-NCAP has evaluated over 300 vehicle types in the past 10 years. The 2018 version of C-NCAP introduces adjustments to test protocols and evaluation methods, including changes to the chest index evaluation, whiplash test speed, and rating system. It also adds new tests for pedestrian protection and autonomous emergency braking (AEB) systems. Scoring requirements will become more stringent over time, with the minimum score needed for a 5-star rating increasing from 75% in 2018 to 85% by 2020.

16.  No effects to the existing evaluation system for conventional vehicle
 In consideration of the hazard of high-voltage in battery and circuit,
additional test to be adopted
 Compliance of vehicles after impact tests with the requirements for
electric safety to be tested
 More stringent requirements than those in Chinese standards to be
applied
 Independent mark to be applied for indicating the level of electric safety
 In case of failing to meet the electric safety requirements, only the test
results will be released and no star rating will be conducted.
