Bharat NCAP 2.0, an enhanced version of India’s car safety assessment program which will primarily aim to incorporate the evaluation of Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) capabilities with global benchmarks is being developed by The Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI).

Bharat NCAP 2.0 - To Revamp Safety Standards, ADAS testing to be part of the assessment
The Bharat NCAP was launched on October 1st, 2023, in India to assess vehicle safety. This crash test safety rating follows the Global NCAP standards and grades. Now important changes are underway with the Bharat NCAP 2.0, which is being considered for the future.
The confirmation comes from Ujjwala Karle, deputy director and head of ARAI’s Technology Group. “We are working towards creating this new version [of Bharat NCAP], with work already in progress,” Karle stated at the second iteration of the ADAS Show in Bengaluru.
Karle also added that both ADAS features, and ADAS testing have to be localised for the emerging technology trend to achieve the intended objective of safer mobility. ARAI is in the process of setting up a dedicated ADAS test track over an 18-acre plot on the outskirts of Pune.
The implementation of Bharat NCAP 2.0 positions India alongside nations prioritizing active safety technologies to minimize accidents and fatalities.
In the rapidly evolving world of automotive technology, the rise of ADAS system in cars marks a significant leap forward in ensuring road safety and efficiency.
Moreover, Bharat NCAP has tested 15 vehicles including models like Tata Curvv, Curvv EV, Mahindra XEV 9e, and BE 6e that offer ADAS. All models mentioned above have been awarded a 5-star safety rating.

Importance of ADAS

Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) are revolutionizing road safety by mitigating human error, the leading cause of traffic accidents. These systems enhance the driving experience through automation, providing features like lane departure warnings and automatic emergency braking.
ADAS helps to minimize the incidence and severity of automotive accidents that one cannot avert to prevent deaths and injuries. Nearly all automobile collisions are caused by human error. One may prevent this by employing modern driver aid technologies (ADAS).
These devices may take over control from humans on identifying danger, performing simple tasks (like cruise control), or challenging maneuvers (like overtaking and parking).
The widespread use of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) in contemporary automobiles has significantly altered the state of traffic safety. Although the main goal of ADAS is to improve driving ease and comfort, there are significant and varied safety concerns.
