Global NCAP has reached the 50 model milestone for cars tested in the Indian market with the announcement of the latest crash results.
Four cars are included in the latest phase of the #SaferCarsforIndia campaign, the Nissan Magnite, Renault Kiger, Honda Jazz, and the Honda City (4th Gen).
“This is an important milestone moment for our crash testing in India, with fifty models tested to date,” said Alejandro Furas, Global NCAP Secretary General.
“There has been significant progress on vehicle safety design since we began our tests in 2014 but, as we see from our latest results, there is still more to be done to achieve the high safety standards that consumers in India rightly demand.”
The Nissan Magnite and Renault Kiger both scored four stars for adult and two for child occupant protection.
The Honda Jazz achieved four stars for adult and three stars for child occupant protection and the Honda City (4th Gen) achieved four stars for both adult and child occupant protection.
The full crash test results can be read on the Global NCAP website.
Global NCAP’s #SaferCarsForIndia project currently tests frontal crash protection for occupants only. Side impact, ESC and pedestrian protection assessments will form part of Global NCAP’s updated assessment protocols in India as from July 2022.
