How Safe Is the BYD ETT 44 Electric Truck

Electric Vehicles Are Coming

The 2026 BYD ETT 44 electric truck has earned a maximum 5 star Euro NCAP safety rating and the CitySafe award. See how BYD’s electric 4x2 tractor unit performed across driving safety, crash avoidance, visibility, and post crash protection.  The BYD ETT 44 achieved 89% for Safe Driving, 73% for Crash Avoidance, and 80% for Post Crash Safety. One of the truck’s strongest areas was visibility, helped by its low cab layout, lower door window, and available digital mirror technology.  Euro NCAP testing also examined the truck’s ability to help avoid collisions with cars, pedestrians, and cyclists. While the ETT 44 performed particularly well in several vulnerable road user scenarios, the results also revealed areas where its collision avoidance and lane departure assistance could improve.  This video takes a closer look at the Euro NCAP testing of the BYD ETT 44 and shows why this battery electric heavy truck earned the maximum overall safety rating and CitySafe recognition.  What do you think about the BYD ETT 44 and the future of electric heavy trucks?

00:00The 2026 BYDETT44 has made a strong entrance into Euro NCAP's commercial truck safety program,

00:08earning a maximum five-star rating along with the CitySafe Award. The electric 4x2 tractor unit

00:16stood out for driver visibility, occupant monitoring, and technology designed to protect

00:23vulnerable road users. In Euro NCAP testing, the ETT44 scored 89% for safe driving, 73% for crash

00:35avoidance, and 80% for post-crash safety. One of its biggest strengths was visibility from the cab.

00:45Its low seating position, lower door window, and available digital mirror system helped the driver

00:51see pedestrians and cyclists around the massive truck more clearly. The BYD also performed well

00:59with safety systems aimed at preventing collisions involving pedestrians and cyclists. However,

01:07the results showed room for improvement in some vehicle collision and lane departure situations,

01:13meaning its assistance technology is not equally strong in every scenario. What makes this result

01:21especially interesting is that the ETT44 brings battery electric power into the long-haul truck

01:28segment while achieving Euro NCAP's highest overall safety rating. For BYD, it is an important demonstration

01:37of how electric-heavy trucks can combine zero-emission driving with advanced safety technology for

01:44European roads.
