ANCAP ratings

Main source categories
Recall notices
Used for recall search and recall interpretation articles. The current local CSV runs through 29 January 2026. The planned September 2026 refresh remains outstanding. A replacement completion date has not been confirmed; notices after the snapshot date may be missing. Recall count is not treated as a direct quality score.
Specs, pricing and ownership costs
Used for model pages, comparisons and the ownership-cost estimate. Model v1.4 exposes source classes, confidence, uncertainty ranges and editable assumptions. Always replace illustrative defaults with current dealer, insurer and registration quotes.
Update standard
Snapshot datasets
Recall and ANCAP tables state their coverage period. Their date describes the dataset, not necessarily the date you are reading the page. “Page updated” records content or navigation edits; it does not mean that the underlying specifications or dataset have been rechecked. Use the dated source notes for that information.
Fast-changing information
PHEV status, pricing, availability and announced specifications are reviewed more often and carry a visible checked date where they affect the buying conclusion.
Status language
Models are labelled on sale, incoming or watchlist. Announced figures are kept separate from confirmed Australian production specifications.
Corrections
Material corrections update the affected page and are recorded in the public update log so readers can see what changed.
How to read the site
Scores are shortlist tools
Scores and rankings are designed to structure research, not replace inspection, test drives, finance checks, insurance quotes or professional advice.
PHEV claims need extra caution
Battery range, towing and payload are especially sensitive to test cycle, grade, load, accessories and driving pattern. Concept-stage models such as Chery KP31 should be treated as watchlist information until final Australian specifications arrive.
AI assistance does not replace review
AI may assist with drafting, structure and comparison prompts. The site editor remains responsible for checking material claims, source links, status labels and limitations before publication. These pages are not road tests conducted by AutoScore360.
Corrections are welcome
If a source, specification or link is outdated, use the contact and corrections page so the site can be updated cleanly.
