Honda Amaze Joins Maruti Dzire in Getting 5-star Bharat NCAP Rating

The compact sedan has demonstrated an impressive performance in the crash test

The latest 3rd-generation Honda Amaze has bagged a full 5-star safety rating at the Bharat NCAP. Amaze is a prominent product in this popular category. Over the years, it has been able to post decent sales despite stiff competition from the likes of the Maruti Dzire, Hyundai Aura and Tata Tigor. Still, with constant updates, the Japanese car marque has been able to keep it fresh enough to entice new buyers. For now, let us take a look at the details of the crash test.

Honda Amaze at Bharat NCAP

The 3rd-gen Honda Amaze was able to secure a full 5-star safety rating at the Bharat NCAP in the Adult Occupant Protection (AOP) and a 4-star rating in the Child Occupant Protection (COP) category. Digging deeper, the compact sedan scored 28.33 points out of 32 in AOP and 40.81 points out of 49 in COP. The standard equipment list includes 6 airbags, ISOFIX child seat mounts at the rear, seatbelt load-limiter, Electronic Stability Control (ESC) (UN GTR No.8 / UNECE R140 / AIS-133), pedestrian protection (AIS-100) and seatbelt reminder (AIS-145). Together, these factors contributed to the 5 and 4 stars in the AOP and COP departments, respectively.

Talking specifically about the COP aspect, the Honda Amaze scored 14.33 points out of 16 in the Frontal Offset Deformable Barrier Test and 14 points out of 16 in the Side Movable Deformable Barrier Test.
