TATA nexon Indian's first 5 star rated car by NCAP

Tata motors was always famous for their robust build since they are in this business. But they were not having a relevant proof for this. People usually appreciate tata's build quality when they meet some accidents. Tata have tested their previous cars like Zest and Nano who scores 4 and zero stars respectively. The nano score Zero due to absence of safety features like airbags,ABS,pretensioners seat belts,etc. But recently tested Nexon the sub 4 meter suv has scored 5 stars in NCAP crash test for adult occupant by scoring 16.06 points out of 17 and 3 stars for child occupant by scoring 25 points out of 49. By this results the Nexon has become the first car to score 5 stars which is completely made in india.

This is the 2nd time the Nexon has been tested by NCAP, earlier when it was tested, it scored 4 stars in adult safety and 3 stars in child safety. So what really changed in the Nexon to get 5 stars now? Well, the recently tested nexon is all same as the previous one. But the only change that is there in new nexon is the introduction of co-passengers seat belt warning system and in addition to this the nexon also tested for it's side impact this time and became the first indian car to be side impact tested.

NCAP also mentioned further that the body shell is stable during both, front and side impact tests and can sustain more force. Although the 5 star rating is applicable to the Nexon models manufactured from dec 2018 and all the cars manufactured before that will be having a 4 star ratings.

That day is not far when people will ask kitna bachati hai instead of kitna deti haišŸ¤£ thanks to tata, because I feel the customers in india should me more focused on their safety rather than mileage.
