Three Star Cars in Global NCAP Crash Tests

The Global NCAP has been testing Indian cars for a short time now under its #SafeCarsForIndia campaign. While there are disappointing leads to the past, cars sold in India have upped their safety game in recent years. The Tata Altroz, as an example , got a 5-star rating earlier this year. Here may be a list of other made-in-India cars that have received an honest rating (more than 3 stars) within the Global NCAP crash test.

All the cars here have a 3-star rating in adult safety but it’s the Aspire that has the very best score.

Ertiga has the very best score in child occupant safety. While the Aspire and Seltos scored 15 points out of 49, the Duster scored 17.75. The Ertiga has the very best score since it’s the sole car here to supply ISOFIX child seat anchors as standard.

Head protection in Aspire and Ertiga is rated good for both the driving force and co-driver. However, it’s surprisingly rated adequate for the foremost expensive car here, the Seltos. The Duster, though, may be a assortment with adequate protection for the driving force and good for the co-driver.

Neck protection altogether the cars is rated good for both the driving force and co-driver.

Chest protection is rated marginal for the driving force and good for the co-driver in both the Seltos and Ertiga. it’s rated weak for the driving force and marginal for the co-driver within the Duster and therefore the Aspire.

Thigh protection is rated marginal for all the cars during this comparison.

The bodyshell and footwell of all the cars here are rated unstable.
