The people are increasingly paying attention to the development of low-carbon and environmental protection.Under this environment，the governments in different countries have implemented increasingly stringent regulationson the vehicle's fuel emissions.As a kind of the new energy vehicles，electric vehicle is increasingly respected and valued.However，when the electric car has sprung up in the eyes of consumers，the people also have the special concerns on safety systems.In order to ensure the safe and healthy development of electric vehicles，the main production and consumption countries producing electric vehicles have issued and implemented the technical regulations for safety requirements of electric vehicles.In this paper，the establishment of safety regulations，the current situation of domestic and foreign NCAP safety evaluation，the evaluation methods and development trends are described.This paper mainly introduces the establishment of C-NCAP regulations in China，the method and basis of C-NCAP safety evaluation，and the C-NCAP safety evaluation process.C-NCAP，as the forefront of the technical indicators，will inevitably continue to advance with the development of automotive technology.With the improvement of consumer safety awareness and the accumulation of test data，electric vehicle safety evaluation methods and standards will continue to be improved further.
