Verdict

The new Vito, available as of July 2024, comes equipped as standard with all of the latest safety technology, and this performs extremely well in Euro NCAP's tests. The previous Vito was rated as Silver against Euro NCAP's 2023 protocols. The new van improves hugely on this, taking it to Platinum level. The 2024 Vito represents one of the best options for van buyers to whom safety is an important consideration.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 vehicles, performance was good, tailing off only a little at higher speeds and where the target was offset to one side. Likewise, the system performed well in tests of its reaction to pedestrians. For cyclists, performance was adequate.

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. A blind-spot information system is available.

The speed assistance system uses digital mapping and a camera to determine the local speed limit. This information is presented to the driver and the speed limiter can be set accordingly.

There is a standard-fit seatbelt reminder system for both the driver and passenger seat.
