The only public collision test in Europe is the Euro NCAP Consortium.The Euro NCAP has announced eight categories with the best safety of about 40 units that conducted a collision test in 2015.

In order to obtain the highest 5 -star evaluation in the Euro NCAP, more than 80 % for "adult crew protection performance", 75 % or more for "child crew protection performance", and more than 65 % for "pedestrian protection performance".The condition is to earn more than 70 % of the auxiliary device.Even one of the four items is less than the standard point, and if it is less than 4 stars, it will not be recognized as 5 stars in the overall evaluation.In order to obtain 5 stars in the overall evaluation, more than 75 % of points are required.

The test result of Jaguar's new sedan, XE, has 35.3 points (92 %) of adult crew protection performance, clearing the conditions of 5 stars.Children's crew protection performance is 40.5 (82 %), which satisfies 5 star conditions.The pedestrian protection performance is 29.4 points (81 %), which corresponds to 5 stars.The safety auxiliary device was 10.7 points (82 %), exceeding the 70 % needed for five stars.

As a result, Jaguar XE's overall evaluation is the highest 5 stars.The Euro NCAP was recognized as the safest car in the large family car category.Jaguarkers commented, "XE has already become a benchmark in terms of power performance, and now the euro NCAP has been superior to safety."
