India's journey towards vehicle safety started off in 2014, when the first ever made in India cars were crash tested by Global NCAP. The first few cars did not fare well, but fast forward five years, we already have the Tata Nexon as the first ever, made-in-India car to get a 5 star rating from Global NCAP, which has perhaps the most stringent crash test safety norms. With Tata Motors opening the score, Mahindra is not far behind, with its Marazzo getting a 4 star rating. More and more automotive manufacturers in India have started putting in solid efforts towards making safer cars in India and exporting them to other markets as well.
