 We know losses are a common thing in driving. There are many reasons for accidents that end in casualties or life-altering injuries. There is so much traffic on Indian roads. It is necessary to purchase new vehicles with safety features. We need the safest cars for better functioning.

Global NCAP started testing Indian cars in 2009, so safety has made some strides forward in India. Several new safety regulations have been implemented, including the necessity for dual airbags and ABS, with more to come.

They tested vehicles through collisions with offset and side effects.
