Euro NCAP has just announced that its Board of Directors met to elect its new President Céline Vallaude, Head of Expertise & Vehicle Regulation at UTAC is currently the representative for the French Ministry of Ecological Transition at the Euro NCAP Board of Directors.
“Euro NCAP has played a pivotal role in the implementation of safety systems in new vehicles sold in Europe for more than 25 years, becoming a flagbearer for safety worldwide. This safety leadership can be attributed to its ability to continuously update its requirements, encouraging industry to achieve the highest possible standards in a cost-effective manner. I intend Euro NCAP to continue to maintain this agility and level of expertise to support its growth. My aim will also be to ensure that Euro NCAP continues to manage its diverse testing programmes within an effective business model, maintaining financial sustainability whilst upholding the quality and independence of its assessment.”

About Euro NCAP
Euro NCAP organizes crash & safety tests on new vehicles and provides motoring consumers with a realistic and independent assessment of the safety performance of some of the most popular cars sold in Europe. Established in 1997 and backed by several European Governments, motoring, consumer and insurance organizations, Euro NCAP has rapidly become a catalyst for encouraging significant safety improvements to new car design.
Euro NCAP ratings strictly apply to vehicles of the specifications offered in Europe. The ratings do not necessarily apply to models offered in other regions, even when sold under an identical name, as production specification and equipment may vary.
