2020 Isuzu MU-X scores 5-star safety rating

KUALA LUMPUR: The New Car Assessment Programme for Southeast Asian Countries, commonly known as ASEAN NCAP has awarded the 2020 Isuzu MU-X five-star safety rating. The new D-Max made its debut in Thailand a few months back and the brand has gained a lot of traction for the SUV.

2020 Isuzu MU-X safety rating

Coming to its safety rating, ASEAN NCAP first assessed the seven-seater SUV in 2016, wherein it scored a 4-star rating - both AOP and COP categories. Back then, the model’s safety result was extended from the 2014 test performed by ASEAN NCAP on the D-Max. For 2020, the MU-X AOP safety results are extended from D-Max Jan cash test scores. Why? Well, that’s because MU-X’s platform features the same restraint system and crashworthiness setup as the D-Max.
