Euro NCAP Pre-testing and Consultancy

Pre-testing and consultancy by TRL's experts will provide you with accurate vehicle performance data and targeted recommendations on how to improve your future ratings.

What is Euro NCAP?

Euro NCAP is Europe's leading vehicle safety testing programme. Its aim is to provide consumers with an independent assessment of the safety performance of vehicles sold in Europe by rating them from 1 to 5 stars. From January 2009, new assessment methods were introduced and the way vehicles are rated changed.

Why TRL?

TRL is an officially accredited testing laboratory and works with Euro NCAP to develop the testing and assessment protocols, so fully understands all the requirements. Not only can we test your vehicles - we can also conduct post-test vehicle inspections with our Euro NCAP-accredited vehicle inspector.
