- Hyundai's next-generation hydrogen fuel-cell electric SUV earns top scores across all major safety categories
- Achieves outstanding results in Adult and Child Occupant Protection, securing maximum points for adult whiplash protection in rear impacts and for six- and ten-year-old child dummies in frontal and side impact tests
- Continues Hyundai's five-star streak following IONIQ 5, IONIQ 6 and IONIQ 9
- Reinforces Hyundai's long-standing commitment to safety leadership and zero-emission mobility innovation
SEOUL, South Korea, Dec. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Hyundai Motor Company announced that the all-new Hyundai NEXO has achieved the highest possible five-star rating in the latest Euro NCAP safety assessment, reaffirming the company's dedication to delivering class-leading safety across its electrified lineup.
As Hyundai's next-generation hydrogen fuel-cell electric SUV, the NEXO emits only water vapor and exemplifies the company's vision for zero-emission mobility. Its top rating adds strong validation to Hyundai's pursuit of safety excellence, following previous five-star Euro NCAP results for the IONIQ 5, IONIQ 6 and IONIQ 9.
Hyundai continues to demonstrate that safety is central to every vehicle it develops — not only for customers but for all road users. The NEXO's latest recognition underscores Hyundai's consistent performance in crash protection and its extensive suite of advanced safety and driver-assistance technologies.
Outstanding Occupant Protection Across Adult and Child Categories
Euro NCAP (European New Car Assessment Programme) — Europe's most trusted independent organization for evaluating vehicle safety — assesses new vehicles across four categories: adult occupant protection, child occupant protection, protection of vulnerable road users, and safety assistance technologies.
The all-new Hyundai NEXO achieved exceptional results across all four areas, including 90 percent in Adult Occupant Protection and 85 percent in Child Occupant Protection.
Building on Hyundai's proven safety leadership
This achievement further highlights Hyundai's long-term commitment to hydrogen technology and safety innovation. The previous generation NEXO became the first fuel-cell electric vehicle ever tested by Euro NCAP in 2018 — and earned a five-star rating under the evaluation standards at that time.
The new five-star result underscores Hyundai's continuous advancement in fuel-cell engineering, crash protection and customer-focused safety technology, setting a benchmark in the global FCEV segment.

All-new Hyundai NEXO Achieves Maximum Five-Star Rating in Euro NCAP Safety Assessment

LOS ANGELES, March 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- CASEKOO, a leader in innovative mobile lifestyle accessories, today announced the launch of LinKOO, a groundbreaking phone case featuring the world's first open clasp system. Celebrating the vibrant energy and happiness of Spring, LinKOO is designed for the season's getaways, outdoor adventures, and everyday moments of delight.
The magic of LinKOO happens when the chain comes off. Engineered with a patented clasp at the base of the case, it securely holds a chain or wristlet to complement any spring look. But the true innovation? The clasp folds completely flat against the phone when not in use—instantly transforming from a statement accessory into a sleek, pocket-friendly case built for life in motion.
"Spring represents a time of renewal and reconnection, so we designed LinKOO to be the perfect companion for the season's adventures," said Ralph, founder of CASEKOO. "We've engineered a clasp that simply 'disappears' when you don't need it—giving our community the freedom to move seamlessly from a morning run to an afternoon of shopping, all while keeping their style and their phone protected. But what truly excites us is how LinKOO sparks curiosity. It's designed to be noticed—inviting others to come closer, to ask what it is, and to start a conversation. Because the best connections happen when we're open to them."
A Joyful, Adventure-Ready Design
Just as the season calls for versatility and a touch of whimsy, the LinKOO case is built to adapt. Key features include:
World's First Open Clasp System: A unique, hinged clasp that opens to hold a chain and closes to lay flush against the case, offering a clean, uninterrupted profile.
Transformative 2-in-1 Design: Effortlessly switches between a secure chain-carry mode for hands-free convenience and a compact traditional case for slipping into a pocket or bag.
Spring-Ready Style & Protection: Constructed with a durable, impact-resistant frame and available in a range of fresh, seasonal colors and finishes to match any spring wardrobe.
Interchangeable Chain Compatibility: Works seamlessly with CASEKOO's collection of chains and straps, allowing users to mix and match for a personalized look that fits every spring adventure.
Playful Extras & Availability
Embracing the spirit of discovery, the LinKOO launch invites users to refresh their style for the new season. The CASEKOO LinKOO case is now available in Vital Orange for the iPhone 17 Pro Max, with a full range of colors and finishes rolling out in late May. To inspire endless mix-and-match possibilities, complementary straps are currently included with every LinKOO case purchase.
