The Slavia received a distinct 5-Star rating for adult employment after scoring 29.71 out of a possible 34 points. The sedan received a score of 42 out of 49 for kid passengers, earning it a 5-star rating for child protection. According to the newer, tougher test procedures, this makes the Slavia the safest vehicle ever evaluated by the Global NCAP.

As per the company, Skoda Slavia’s skeletal structure is laser welded. The structure comprises high strength steel, and has been built to mitigate and absorb the impact of the crash across the outer shell of the car rather than the inner cabin. 

The Slavia is a completely secure vehicle from the inside out thanks to its rigid and impact-absorbing body construction, which works in conjunction with a variety of active and inactive safety technologies.
