Top 13 Safest cars in India, Global NCAP Rating for Indian Cars in 2025
Manufacturers have also realised the importance of safety features, and the market has come a long way in recent years as far as safety of occupants is concerned. It is important to evaluate the safety features of your car, because safety should never be a matter of compromise.
Today, cars are rated according to how safe they are. The parameter is the Global New Car Assessment Programme (GNCAP) rating. Earlier airbags and driver assistance software were advertised as luxuries now they’re an integral part of most cars sold above a certain price point.
