Verdict

The Farizon SV, from Chinese giant Geely, is the newest and most futuristic offering in this segment and, as might be expected, it comes with most of the latest safety technologies. These perform well in Euro NCAP's tests, and the van's Platinum rating places it amongst the best options for those looking for safety.Autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system is standard equipment throughout Europe. The system combines AEB with Forward Collision Warning (FCW) that detects vulnerable road users like pedestrians and cyclists as well as other vehicles. In Euro NCAP's tests of the system's reaction to stationary vehicles, performance was good, tailing off only a little at the highest test speeds, and was consistent across all offsets (where the target is not in line with the centreline of the test vehicle). Against a slower-moving vehicle and a vehicle in front which is braking, the SV scored full points. Likewise, the system performed well in tests of its reaction to pedestrians and to cyclists, with collisions avoided in most cases.

The standard-fit Lane Support System (LSS) gently steers the vehicle if it is drifting out of lane and intervenes more aggressively in some more critical situations to prevent the van from leaving the road. The system scored maximum points in Euro NCAP's tests. Lane departure warning and blind-spot warning are both standard.

Speed assistance is the only area where the Farizon did not excel. The van uses a camera-based system to identify the local speed limit. This information is presented to the driver. However, the system does not include a speed control function to actively limit the vehicle speed, and the van lost points for this.

There is a standard-fit seatbelt reminder system for both the driver and passenger seat. A system issues an alert if it recognises a driving pattern that is characteristic of a fatigued driver.
