On October 15th, the 2025 New Car Assessment Program (NCAP) World Congress opened in Shanghai. This is the second time the summit has been held in China, demonstrating China’s growing influence in the global automotive safety field. Yanfeng, as a participant and innovation driver, discussed with global authorities, industry leaders, and technical experts to explore the future of automotive safety.
During the afternoon session of the congress, Yanfeng delivered a keynote speech on "Yanfeng's Research on Safety Protection for Zero-Gravity Seats." It shared innovative paths and systematic solutions for passengers’ safety protection in smart cabin environments. Yanfeng first proposed the "in-vehicle zero gravity" concept, redefined the comfort and safety boundaries of smart mobility, and deeply participated in relevant industry standard-setting. Notably, Yanfeng is the world’s first automotive component company to launch zero-gravity seats with complete safety protection measures, achieving a breakthrough from concept to mass production. This provides implementable Chinese solutions for passive safety in smart cabin, marking the transition of Chinese companies from participants to leaders in the international automotive safety field.
At the summit site, Yanfeng comprehensively showcased its complete passive safety product line, as well as its system-level supply capabilities and technological innovation strength. Several core products, including SAFE UNIT Seating Integrated Safety Technology, intelligent airbag systems, and ClickRim Modular Steering Wheel, attracted attention.
