Hyundai NEXO has earned a five-star safety rating from Euro NCAP, one of the most trusted organizations for testing car safety. This achievement shows Hyundai’s commitment to making safe and eco-friendly vehicles. The NEXO now joins other Hyundai models like the IONIQ 5, IONIQ 6, and IONIQ 9, all of which also received top safety ratings.

Euro NCAP tests vehicles in four areas - adult occupant protection, child occupant protection, protection for vulnerable road users, and safety assistance technologies. The Hyundai NEXO performed very well in these tests, with 90% for adult protection and 85% for child protection.
The NEXO showed excellent results in adult protection, with the passenger area staying stable in crash tests. It also did well in whiplash protection in rear-impact tests.
For child protection, the NEXO performed well with six- and ten-year-old dummies, showing strong protection in both frontal and side-impact tests.

Hyundai NEXO comes with several advanced safety features that helped it achieve the five-star rating. These include the eCall system, which contacts emergency services automatically after a crash, and post-crash technology to prevent further damage. The NEXO is also designed to keep doors and windows working in case of submersion.
The NEXO is a hydrogen fuel-cell SUV, meaning it only produces water vapor from its exhaust, making it a zero-emission vehicle. This highlights Hyundai’s commitment to a cleaner environment and sustainable driving. The five-star safety rating proves that Hyundai is focused on both safety and eco-friendly driving.
This five-star rating continues Hyundai’s history of making safe and innovative vehicles. The NEXO’s previous generation was the first hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle tested by Euro NCAP in 2018, where it also earned a five-star rating. This new rating shows Hyundai’s continued progress in making vehicles safer and better for the environment.
