Euro NCAP: Mercedes-Benz W639 Viano crash testing
In Euro NCAP testing, a 2008 Viano – on which the Valente was based – that was fitted with a 2.1-litre turbo-diesel engine received a four star adult occupant protection rating with a score of 30.66 out of 37. The Valente, however, was further equipped with side and curtain airbags, such that ANCAP conferred an additional two points in the pole test – for a total of 32.66 points – which resulted in a five star adult occupant protection rating for the Valente.
