You'd be surprised. Two Chinese models have got four stars on the EuroNCAP. Early 2012 saw the Chinese NCAP standards raised to the same 64 kmh as EuroNCAP. Expect all 2013 models that get good Chinese NCAP ratings to actually be decent everywhere else.
I've been road testing new Chinese cars for several years at work. And while would not buy one, as yet, the improvement from year to year has been incredible. I give them less than ten years to be where Hyundai and Kia are at, rigt now, as long as the Chinese economy holds out.
