Perodua Bezza has received the Best Child Occupant Protection (COP) for small family car category and the Best Adult Occupant Protection (AOP) for small family car category at the recent ASEAN NCAP Grand Prix Awards.

“These two awards are a recognition of our efforts to always place our customers’ safety and comfort in our products,” Perodua President and Chief Executive Officer, Datuk (Dr) Aminar Rashid Salleh said.

On 16th July 2016, the Perodua Bezza was certified with a 5-star rating by ASEAN NCAP, making it the first 5-star EEV national sedan.

The Perodua Bezza 1.3L Advance variant comes equipped with a Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) which is a safety function that detects and reduces skidding hence allowing the driver to maintain stability while driving. On top of that, this variant also comes with Traction Control (TRC) and Brake Assist (BA) which allows the driver to maintain traction on a slippery road. Hill Start Assist (HSA) that prevents the car from rolling back on slopes when the brakes is released, giving the driver time to switch to the accelerator pedal is also available as a standard feature in the Bezza 1.3L Advance.

In addition to all these safety features, all Perodua Bezza variants come equipped with ABS, EBD and also intermittent operated windshield wiper which changes speed in-line with the vehicle’s acceleration (speed sensing wiper). This will further improve the car’s safety features as it improves visibility when driving in the rain.
