Mega ADAS Test: Victoris vs XEV 9S vs Safari vs Creta N Line vs Innova Hycross vs Carens Clavis EV

Welcome to the 3rd edition of autoX's Mega ADAS comparison test.

In this two-part series, we evaluate the real-world performance of Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) systems from six major carmakers in India: Mahindra, Hyundai, Kia, Tata, Toyota, and Maruti Suzuki.

In Part 1, the focus is squarely on AEB in pedestrian scenarios. Before the tests begin, we break down how AEB actually works, why it has speed and object limitations, and why many popular beliefs about ADAS are simply not true.

All six cars are then tested under identical conditions, including:

• Daytime pedestrian AEB tests
• Night-time tests with headlamps on
• Zero-visibility tests with headlamps and DRLs switched off

The results reveal major differences in how these systems are calibrated — from how early they brake, to how consistently they intervene, and how well they cope when visibility drops.

Which AEB system works best for Indian roads?
Which ones struggle where it matters most?
Watch till the end to find out!

Part 2 of this Mega ADAS test will evaluate real-world ADAS features, including adaptive cruise control, lane assistance, and expressway behaviour. Subscribe to autoX so you don’t miss it.

DISCLAIMER - All tests were conducted in a controlled environment. ADAS is a driver-assist feature and does not replace attentive driving.
