Tata Motors Wins Global NCAP Safer Choice Award 2024 for Harrier and Safari

Tata Motors received the Safer Choice Award 2024 from Global NCAP. Last year, the Harrier and the Safari scored the highest Global NCAP rating in crash tests of 5 stars for adult and child occupant protection.

Global NCAP today presented Tata Motors with their Safer Choice Award for the Tata Safari and Harrier – an accolade only available to automakers committing to the highest levels of safety performance for cars sold in India.

The SUVs achieved for both adult and child occupant protection the highest score in both categories. Last year, the Tata Safari and Harrier achieved a five-star Global NCAP rating for adult and child occupant protection, with the highest score in Global NCAP’s #SaferCarsForIndia campaign.

Tata Motors has since submitted the Safari and Harrier for further Safer Choice conformity tests, with the models meeting performance and volume requirements for autonomous emergency breaking (AEB), speed assistance, and blind spot detection (BSD) systems.

Global NCAP launched the Safer Choice Award in 2018 and updated its protocols in August 2024. To qualify for the award, a car model must meet all of the following requirements:

Five-star Global NCAP rating for adult occupant protection.
Five-star Global NCAP rating for child occupant protection.
Provide a speed assistance system and achieve a full score in Global NCAP’s test criteria.
Provide AEB (car to car and vulnerable road user) and meet UN regulatory performance requirements.
Provide BSD as a stand-alone option and meet Global NCAP’s performance requirements.

Mohan Savarkar, Vice President and Chief Product Officer, Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Limited, said,

“We are proud to have received the Global NCAP Safer Choice Award for our flagship SUVs, the Tata Safari and Tata Harrier. We have continued to be the pioneers in driving the safety conversation, ensuring that our commitment reflects in every vehicle we manufacture, regardless of price point. With this mission at the forefront, not only is our entire portfolio the highest star rated in their respective segment, but we have gone a step further by having the only SUV line-up in India that is completely 5-star rated, setting a benchmark for the passenger vehicles industry to follow. With this approach, we have ensured that safety now ranks as the top priority for the Indian car buyer. ‘’This recognition today underscores our unwavering commitment to safety and innovation, ensuring that our customers experience not only comfort and performance but also the highest standards of safety. We are thankful to the entire Global NCAP team for supporting us in full strength as we continue to make safer cars for India.’’
