The European New Car Assessment Program (Euro NCAP) has released crash test ratings for some cars. These crash test results help buyers choose the right car for themselves as well as promote a healthy competition among car manufacturers. Today we will be looking at the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The popular SUV scored 31.9 points or 84% in the adult test and 24 points or 100 % in the child occupant tests. 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee Adult Occupant Protection Result In the front impact tests, both the driver’s and passenger’s head and neck were rated as good. Additionally, all the critical areas of both the driver and passenger were rated as good. The car maker also demonstrated that the knees and femurs of the occupants of different sizes and those sitting in a different position would also be offered good protection. Further, the bodyshell was rated as stable and was capable of further loading. In the side impact as well as the side pole tests, all critical areas were well protected. However, control of the excursion - that is the extent to which a body is thrown to the other side when hit from the opposite side - was poor. The 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee doesn’t have any counter measures to mitigate such kinds of injuries. The car comes with an advanced e-Call system that alerts emergency services in the event of an accident but the SUV lacks a system to prevent secondary collisions. 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee Child Occupant Protection Result The front passenger airbag is automatically disabled when a rear facing child seat is installed in the front seat. In the front offset and the side barrier tests, good or adequate protection was offered to the critical areas of the child dummies. The 3-year old child seat was installed facing forward with ISOFIX and top tether. It prevented excessive forward movement during the forward impact and showed good protection to the head and marginal protection for the chest. The 18-month dummy too was installed with forward seats. 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee Vulnerable Road Users Result In the pedestrian impact test, the head protection was good or adequate. The bumper offered good protection to the pedestrian’s legs while the protection to the pelvis was also good. AEB system of the Jeep Grand Cherokee responded well to vulnerable users. It worked well with cyclists as well and avoided collisions in most cases. 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee Safety Assists The autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system of the SUV worked as described. It performed adequately when tested against other vehicles. A seatbelt reminder is also fitted as standard for both the front and rear occupants. The lane assist system also works to get the car back into the center of the lane and in certain critical cases intervenes as well. The speed assistance system is able to identity the local speed limit and allows the limiter to be set accordingly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?vOHQaembmk3Q Also Read - MG4 EV bags 5-star safety rating in Euro NCAP tests.
