Tata Altroz Gets 5-star Bharat NCAP Safety Rating Across All Powertrains

Tata Motors Ltd. on Wednesday said its premium hatchback Altroz has received a five-star safety rating under the Bharat New Car Assessment Programme across petrol, diesel, and compressed natural gas powertrains.

“It (Altroz) has made history by becoming the first car in its segment and body style to achieve the highest 5-star safety rating under the Bharat NCAP protocol across all its powertrains,” the company said.

Altroz scored 29.65 out of 32 in adult occupant protection and 44.9 out of 49 in child occupant protection. It is also the only CNG-powered car to secure the highest safety rating, Tata Motors said.

The Bharat NCAP, launched on August 22, 2023, aims to improve road safety by raising standards for vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes in India and promote competition among automakers to build safer cars.
