For cars, in addition to excellent design, rich configuration, and excellent performance, safety must be the most concerned by consumers. Without security, then everything will be zero. As the "safety leader of China's independent car", Besturn always puts the safety of the car first. In the latest batch of C-NCAP model evaluation results for 2022 released by the China Automotive Technology and Research Center on March 1, the new third-generation Besturn B70 won the C-NCAP five-star safety certification with a comprehensive score rate of 90.3% in the same class, and performed well in occupant protection, pedestrian protection and active safety evaluation items.
What is C-NCAP?
NCAP is the first systematic evaluation procedure on automobile safety in China established by China Automobile Evaluation, which allows people to intuitively see the safety factor of a car through multi-dimensional crash safety performance test. As one of the most authoritative and open automotive safety evaluation standards, C-NCAP continues to promote the great leap forward of China's automotive technology through independent, impartial and all-round evaluation projects and more stringent test requirements, which can be described as the "touchstone" of automotive safety and quality. Therefore, if it can be awarded a five-star rating in the rigorous C-NCAP test, then the safety of this car is undoubted.
How good is the Pentium B70?
In the "crew protection" item that everyone cares about the most, the third-generation Pentium B70 scores 92.08%! Among them, the complete frontal collision test score was 19.04 out of 20 points, the frontal 40% bias collision test score was 16.259 (out of 20 points), the side collision test score was 19.876 points (out of 20 points), and the whipping test score was 4.278 out of 5 points. In the "pedestrian protection" major, the third-generation Pentium B70 scored 11.225 points (out of 15 points), with a scoring rate of 74.83%. It is worth mentioning that in the "active safety" event, the third generation of Pentium B70 scored 14.601 points (out of 15 points), and the scoring rate was as high as 97.34%!
You know, it's not difficult for a car to do well in one or more of the items, but models like the third-generation Pentium B70 that have almost no shortcomings in terms of safety are definitely very rare. It not only achieves "hard iron itself", but also can "prevent problems before they occur", so that safety has no dead ends.
What efforts have been put into the Pentium B70?
In order to achieve the purpose of all-round safety, the engineers of the third generation of the Pentium B70 have done a lot of work. The most noteworthy is the "double E" ring body with independent intellectual property rights. Among them, thermoformed steel accounts for up to 22%, the vehicle high-strength steel accounts for up to 76%, and the yield material strength is greater than 1500MPa. Therefore, when the car collides, the collision force can be effectively dispersed to the engine compartment, and the body parts of the engine compartment are deformed to absorb the energy during the collision, so as to ensure that the vehicle body has a high level of torsional stiffness and bending stiffness of the skeleton, and to maximize the safety of the members of the car.
In terms of active safety, the third-generation Pentium B70 has also achieved the ultimate. The new 3rd generation Pentium B70 is equipped with up to 14 ADAS functions including lane departure warning system (LDW), adaptive cruise (ACC), front collision warning (FCW), automatic emergency braking (AEB), etc., to achieve L2.5 automatic driving level. Not only far exceeds other models in the same class, but also brings a safer experience to users.
It is with this "spirit of ingenuity" that the third generation of the Pentium B70 has excellent results in terms of safety. It not only performs prominently in the most authoritative C-NCAP crash test, but also provides a safety guarantee for the majority of car owners. In addition, for Chinese brands, better security is of great strategic significance to pull the independent brand camp to challenge the joint venture to achieve a breakthrough.
