The tests included head-on (frontal) and side crash trials that are similar to real accidents. The Aircross kept its inside space solid during these tests and protected everyone inside, scoring 27.05 out of 32. Even at high crash speeds, the car’s body bent very little, which helped the Aircross meet the highest safety marks and gave strong safety to drivers and passengers.
Bharat NCAP also looked at how well the Aircross kept children safe. The SUV did well when experts checked how child seats are fitted and how safe they keep young kids. The car scored 40 out of 49 in the child occupant protection. All versions of the Aircross have ISOFIX mounts, making it easy for parents to fix child seats quickly. For Indian families, this means more peace of mind and easier safety for young passengers. The Aircross’s strong safety record also comes from its features like airbags, ABS, and stability control, all of which come as standard.
