Developments: 2. The redesigned Audi Q7 has earned a five-star rating from Euro NCAP under the organization’s 2026 testing protocols. The vehicle notably became the first production model to achieve a 100 percent score in the Post-Crash Safety category. This specific assessment evaluates the effectiveness of the rescue chain following an accident. Key contributing features include the ‘Audi Connect Emergency Call’ system, which transmits data such as vehicle model, color, and location to emergency services. To prevent secondary accidents, the vehicle utilizes a ‘multi-collision brake’ that automatically applies the parking brake and activates hazard lights upon detecting a significant impact. The Q7 also demonstrated high performance regarding physical accessibility for rescuers, maintaining the ability to unlock doors and function seatbelt buckles even during low-voltage power failures. Additionally, the vehicle received a 100 percent score for essential driving controls, as the updated Euro NCAP protocols favor physical buttons and switches over digital touchscreen menus to support driver muscle memory. ## Timeline ### 2026-10-15: Audi Q7 achieves record 100% Post-Crash Safety score in Euro NCAP The Audi Q7 earned a five-star Euro NCAP rating and became the first production car to achieve a 100% score in Post-Crash Safety, highlighting advanced automated emergency response and rescue features. 8 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/audi-q7-achieves-record-100-post-crash-safety-score-in-euro-ncap ### 2026-10-13: Audi Q7 achieves five-star Euro NCAP rating with perfect post-crash safety score The redesigned Audi Q7 earned a five-star Euro NCAP rating, becoming the first production model to achieve 100 percent in post-crash safety and scoring perfectly for essential physical driving controls. 6 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/audi-q7-achieves-five-star-euro-ncap-rating-with-perfect-post-crash-safety-score --- Cite as: Audi Q7 Euro NCAP safety ratings.
