In this piece of Droom Discovery Advisory (DDA), checkout the top five safest cars in India in 2021
Safety of occupants as well as drivers while on the move is paramount while also being one of the deciding factors in the purchase of any car or SUV in India. The reasons for this are pretty obvious: a) India ranks on the top position in road accidents, b) the woeful condition of roads, and c) the lack of basic safety features in several cars. Though, the Indian automobile industry has undergone a radical change in recent years with the focus turning towards safety and security aspects, all thanks to the Global New Car Assessment Program (GNCAP). For those asking, it is the regulatory body for the safety assessment of new cars internationally. The Global NCAP launched a #SaferCarsForIndia program and as a part of it, several made-in-India cars were tested by this agency. It gave ratings to these cars and SUVs on the basis of their performances in the frontal and side crash test. Hence, in this piece of Droom Discovery Advisory (DDA), we are presenting the top five safest cars in India 2021:
