Global NCAP’s Post

Understanding the Complexity of Car Safety Tests: AIS, Bharat NCAP, and IIHS When it comes to ensuring the safety of passenger vehicles, various organizations around the world conduct rigorous testing. In India, we have the Automotive Industry Standards (AIS) and the newly introduced Bharat NCAP, while in the US, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) sets benchmarks for vehicle safety. Let’s dive into the complexity of these tests and understand their differences. 🚗 #AIS: These are not crash tests but a set of technical specifications for vehicles, systems, and components. AIS standards ensure that vehicles comply with regulatory safety requirements, covering a broad spectrum from crashworthiness to emissions. ⭐ #BharatNCAP: Modeled after Global NCAP, Bharat NCAP introduces a star rating system based on crash test performance. It includes frontal crash tests at 64 km/h and side impact tests at 50 km/h, with a unique scoring system tailored for the Indian automotive market. 🔍 #IIHS: Known for its comprehensive testing, IIHS conducts a variety of crash scenarios including moderate overlap front, small overlap front, side impact, and roof strength tests. They also evaluate non-crash safety features like headlight effectiveness and crash prevention technologies, offering a detailed assessment of a vehicle’s safety capabilities. Each of these testing protocols plays a crucial role in improving vehicle safety standards. While AIS sets the regulatory groundwork, Bharat NCAP provides consumers with an understandable rating system, and IIHS pushes the envelope with multifaceted evaluations.

The Tata Nexon Reigns Supreme: 5-Star Safety Rating in Global NCAP 2024! The wait is over, and the results are in! The all-new 2024 Tata Nexon has aced the Global NCAP crash test, securing a remarkable 5-star rating for both adult and child occupant protection. This impressive achievement reinforces the Nexon's position as a leader in safety within the subcompact SUV segment. Here's what makes the Nexon's 5-star rating even more significant: Tested under stricter 2023 protocols: The Nexon faced a more rigorous assessment with tougher test conditions, making the 5-star score even more commendable. Exemplary performance in both adult and child protection: The Nexon scored 32.22 out of 34 points for adult occupant protection and 44.52 out of 49 points for child occupant protection, demonstrating its all-around safety prowess. Maintaining the legacy: This achievement adds another feather to the Nexon's cap, as it had previously secured a 5-star rating in 2018, showcasing its consistent commitment to safety. This 5-star rating is a testament to Tata Motors' dedication to building safer cars for India and the world. The Nexon's success paves the way for a future where prioritizing safety becomes the norm, not the exception. #TataNexon #GlobalNCAP #5StarSafety #SafetyFirst #MadeInIndia #ProudMoment https://lnkd.in/eF4cnhnD Share your thoughts on the Nexon's safety rating and its impact on the Indian car market in the comments below!

Conspicuity is an essential element when we talk about vehicle safety and prevention of road crashes. Application of reflective tapes in commercial vehicles has been provisioned in Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 and Central Motor Vehicles Rules, 1989 which are often breached in various ways. First, many commercial vehicles ply without fitting the prescribed reflective tapes. Secondly, there is a huge market of counterfeit reflective tapes which do not comply to AIS Standards. Such tapes does not offer required reflectivity and get fade over time. Standard reflective tapes have long shelf life and offer good reflectivity therefore, are able to prevent road crashes during low visibility situations. Got a chance to test standard and non-standard reflective tapes using a reflectometer which displays the reflective index of the tape along with its colour. It is a useful device for road safety stakeholder departments and experts working in the field. #RoadSafety #AIS #MVAct #CMVR #ReflectiveTape #SaveLives #SDG2030 #Conspicuity Swatantra Kumar Lalit Bansal Harsh Udesh Bhat Pooja Bajaj Rama Shankar Pandey Dr.Sreenivaas Puppalaa B.E (Mech), M.B.A, F.I.E, Ph.D Amit Khatri Sushaant Pahalwan Shabeer Mohammad Dr. Shawon Aziz Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) Automotive Skills Development Council - India Arindam Lahiri Global Alliance of NGOs for Road Safety Navdeep Asija, Ph.D. ANURAG KULSHRESTHA 3M ORAFOL

Subject: The Critical Role of Crash Tests in Enhancing Vehicle Safety and NCAP Ratings As we navigate the bustling roads of progress, the safety of our vehicles remains a paramount concern. Crash tests, a rigorous evaluation of a car's safety response in collision scenarios, are not just a regulatory hurdle but a cornerstone in the development of safer vehicles. 🚗💥 These tests, essential for restraint development, ensure that seat belts, airbags, and other safety mechanisms perform optimally, safeguarding passengers during an impact. But beyond the immediate safety benefits, crash tests serve a broader purpose. They are the backbone of New Car Assessment Programs (NCAPs) like Global NCAP, Bharat NCAP, and Euro NCAP, which provide consumers with an understandable safety rating system. ⭐️🔒 Each crash test is a meticulous dance between engineering and physics, revealing the resilience of a vehicle's design under duress. The data collected informs not just the NCAP safety ratings, but also plays a critical role in homologation—the certification process that allows vehicles to be sold in various countries. 🌍📊 As we strive for a future where road accidents see a significant decline, the insights from these crash tests are invaluable. They drive innovation, compel manufacturers to elevate safety standards, and empower consumers with the knowledge to make informed decisions. 🛡️🚀 Let's champion the relentless pursuit of vehicle safety and applaud the advancements that crash tests and NCAP ratings have brought to our roads. Share your thoughts on how we can further improve vehicle safety standards and keep this conversation going! #VehicleSafety #CrashTests #NCAPRatings #AutomotiveInnovation #RoadSafety #CarSafety #RestraintDevelopment #Homologation #DriveSafe [#MarutiSuzukiIndiaLtd]

○ The below depicted driving situation arised due to driver not paying attention on driving and busy doing something else rather than prioritizing driving while the vehicle is in constant motion. ○ Multitasking during driving is a very risky task and can lead a driver to fall in an uncontrollable driving situation. ▪︎ During an emergency task, stop the vehicle on the side of road and complete the task one at a time and then continue driving. ▪︎ This accidental driving scenario could have mitigated using #ADAS technology implementing features like • Driver Monitoring System (DMS) • Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) • Lane Keep Assist (LKA) • Forward Collison Warning (FCW) #roadsafety #accidentprevention #mitigationstrategies #passengersafety #futuremobility #saferroads #zeroaccidents #roadaccidents #pedestriansafety National Highways Authority of India Ministry of Road Transport & Highways - India Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) SAEINDIA

"Any Automobile Industry 🏎 Pricing Strategy stands and falls with the ability to measure the customers' willingness to pay correctly 🤑 ". To Strengthen the stands and increase the customer's willingness to pay correctly India has launched its Car testing facility and became the 5th country to do this! Until recently, Indian automobile manufacturers tested their vehicles under the Global NCAP 🌍 (New Car Assessment Programme).  Indian firms were spending roughly 2.5 crores 💸 to test a single car, but now that we have our testing centre, they will only be spending 60 lakhs to test a single car.  Global NCAP assessed two essential safety domains: 1. Adult Occupant Protection and 2. Child Occupant Safety.  However, Bharat NCAP has added Safety Assistant Technologies and Pole Side Impact, which shows the outcomes if a car collides with a pole at 29 mph. Recently, the Tata Company tested its two models, the SUV Harrier and the New Safari, under the Bharat NCAP, and both vehicles achieved a 5-star rating. By taking this step, the Indian government demonstrates its development in the automobile sector and its concern for public safety. Additionally, Indian automakers will produce the highest-quality vehicles and conduct these tests to obtain positive commercial ratings. I hope you are healthy and hustling daily!!! #automobileindustry #development #tatamotors #safetyfirst
