The Maruti Suzuki Victoris has scored a five star result for both adult and child occupant protection, the second new model from Maruti to attain five star Global NCAP status after the Dzire was launched at the end of last year.
The Victoris has been voluntarily tested according to the requirements of Global NCAP’s new protocols. More information on the new test requirements can be found on the Global NCAP website.
Richard Woods, Chief Executive Officer, Global NCAP, said:
“The five star Victoris clearly demonstrates Maruti Suzuki’s commitment to improved safety for its new models. It continues the trend set by the Dzire launched last year which also achieved five stars.
“We warmly welcome Maruti Suzuki’s engagement with the requirements of Global NCAP’s new protocols. The result is a significant vehicle safety victory for motoring consumers in India.”
