Latest Euro NCAP results - Introduction

The latest batch of Euro NCAP crash tests have found weaknesses in ISOFIX child seat mounts and airbags - but only one manufacturer is improving cars already sold to motorists.

In the Nissan Note's trials, an ISOFIX bracket failed, while front airbags fired too late in the Toyota RAV4 tests.

Nissan says it has modified and improved the design of its bracket and will recall cars already with owners to replace the part. Toyota has also adapted its design, but has told Euro NCAP that it won't modify cars that have already been sold.

Euro NCAP's chairman Claes Tingvall said: 'It is worrying that test revealed potential problems in cars which were already in production and on sale to the public.

'Nissan is to be congratulated for modifying cars already sold. We believe that all customers should expect to get their cars modified when such weaknesses have been discovered.'

A statement from Toyota Europe is expected this afternoon on the issue. Meanwhile, the company said it was proud of the four star verdicts it received overall and for child protection, and the three-out-of-four star result it earned for pedestrian protection.

As well as the RAV4 and Note, Euro NCAP has put the Chevrolet Kalos and Land Rover Discover through its trials. Read on to see how they all fared.
