NCAP 5-Star Safety Ratings by Vehicle Id (NHTSA)
nhtsa/safety-rating
The NHTSA New Car Assessment Program (NCAP) 5-Star Safety Ratings record for one vehicle variant, by its VehicleId (find it with the NCAP variants tool): overall, front, side and rollover star ratings, the rollover probability as a fraction, whether forward collision warning, lane departure warning and stability control are standard, links to the crash-test pictures and videos, and counts of complaints, recalls and investigations for the model year. Star ratings are text, "1" to "5" or "Not Rated"; an unrated vehicle still returns a record with every rating Not Rated and a rollover probability of 0.0 that means no data. An unknown VehicleId returns an empty list. Source: NHTSA, a US federal agency whose data is in the public domain. Not an official NHTSA product.
