The list is dominated by cars from Indian automakers, namely Tata and Mahindra, with a major share being SUVs
Bharat new car assessment programme (BNCAP) began its operations in October 2023. Since then, the organisation has tested several cars, most of which are from Indian brands like Tata and Mahindra. Many of these cars tested by BNCAP have achieved an impressive 5-star safety rating. Let’s take a closer look at each of them and how they performed.
Mahindra XUV 3XO
Price Range: 7.79 lakh to Rs 15.49 lakh
Adult Occupant Protection |
5 star (29.36/32) |
Child Occupant Protection |
5 star (43/49) |
The Mahindra XUV 3XO got a midlife update in April 2024, with which it not only received a fresh design and features, but also an improved safety package. The XUV 3XO was recently crash tested by Bharat NCAP, and it received full 5-star safety ratings in both adult and child occupant protection.
The safety features on the XUV 3XO include 6 airbags (as standard), a 360-degree camera with blind view monitor, electronic stability control (ESC) with hill hold and hill descent control, traction control, and roll-over mitigation. It also gets 3-point seatbelts and seatbelt reminders for all seats, and all-wheel disc brakes, and a full suite of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) features like adaptive cruise control, autonomous braking, and lane keep assist.
Tata Nexon
Price Range: 8 lakh to Rs 15.50 lakh
Adult Occupant Protection |
5 star (29.41/32) |
Child Occupant Protection |
5 star (43.83/49) |
The next SUV in line is XUV 3XO’s direct rival, the Tata Nexon. The Nexon has always been known for its safety and strong build quality, and it proved its mettle once again when it was crash tested by Bharat NCAP. The Nexon received an impressive 5-star safety rating in both adult and child occupant protection.
Passenger safety is taken care of by 6 airbags, electronic stability control, ABS with EBD, ISOFIX child seat anchorage, rear parking sensors (as standard). The higher-spec variants also offer a 360-degree camera with a blind view monitor, front parking sensors and a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS). However, unlike the XUV 3XO, the Nexon misses out on ADAS.
Tata Punch EV

The Tata Punch EV was launched in early 2024, with better equipment than the regular Punch’s safety kit. The all-electric Punch not only got a full 5-star safety rating by Bharat NCAP in both adult and child occupant protection, but it also has the highest safety scores, making it the safest car on this list.
The safety features include six airbags (as standard), a 360-degree camera, ESC, and an electronic parking brake with auto hold. Its safety net also includes a blind spot view monitor, hill hold control, and hill descent control.
