  • Expect 5-star rating in Global NCAP Test.

New Delhi. Maruti Suzuki is preparing to launch its first electric car in India. Even before the launch of this car, there has been a lot of creation in the market. Customers are eagerly waiting for this car. It is believed that the competition is going to intensify after Maruti's entry in India's electric car market. Because, this company has the largest customer base in terms of cars with petrol and CNG powertrains. Now interesting is that the crash test of Maruti E Vitara has been done by this Maruti's first electric car.

The crash test of this car is also interesting because questions are often raised about safety on Maruti's cars. Now it has to be seen what score this car gets in the crash test. The crash test score of this car has not been revealed yet. The reason for this is that it was probably the company's internal crash test and not Global NCAP or Bharat NCAP crash test.

5 star safety rating expected
However, the crash test score of this car Global Encap or India Encap is going to be very interesting. After continuous criticisms, Maruti is also increasing its safety standards.
The latest example is the Dzire of 4th generation which was launched in November 2024. The latest model of the sub-4 meter sedan received the Global NCAP crash test 5-star rating, the first time for any Maruti model. If Global NCAP or India NCAP performs this car crash test, E Vitara is expected to get good safety ratings as it will be sold not only in India but also in many international markets including Europe.

You will get 7 airbags
Talking about safety features, E Vitara 7 Airbags, Tire Pressure Monitoring System (ADAS), EBD with ABS, EPB, AVAS, 360-Digry camera and front and front and rear parking sensors are equipped with features. Apart from this, there will also be the first Maruti with E Vitara Level 2 Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) with all safety features including Automatic Emergency Breaking, Lane Keep Assist, Adaptive Cruise Control, Rear Cross-Trefic Alert.
