Maxus eDELIVER 9
Electric
Commercial Van Safety 2025 – 5 stars
Verdict:
The 2025 MAXUS eDeliver 9 is very well equipped with safety features, both passive and active. For crash safety, driver and passenger airbags, and a side curtain airbag are standard throughout Europe. And the van also has all of the main active safety technologies too. The eDeliver 9 emerges from Euro NCAP’s tests with a five-star rating, an improvement over its previous assessment, putting it amongst the best choices for those wanting safety from their commercial van.
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, the eDeliver 9 scored maximum points, with collisions avoided in all test scenarios.
The standard-fit Lane Support System (LSS) gently steers the vehicle if it is drifting out of lane. The system intervenes more aggressively in some more critical situations to prevent the van from leaving the road. The 2025 system is a significant improvement over earlier ones, with good performance where it was previously lacking. A blind-spot information system is standard equipment.
The speed assistance system uses digital mapping and a camera to determine the local speed limit. This information is presented to the driver who can set the speed limiter accordingly. The 2025 system is improved over earlier systems.
There is a standard-fit seatbelt reminder system for both the driver and passenger seat.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) has not been assessed as part of the current rating.
