The Honda Amaze 3rd-generation has officially secured a 5-star safety rating for adult occupants and a 4-star rating for child occupants under the Bharat NCAP (BNCAP) crash test program. This is the strongest safety rating the Amaze has ever received and it puts the sedan among one of the safest made-in-India cars for families.
Bharat NCAP is India’s crash-test safety system which is similar to Global NCAP and Euro NCAP. Cars tested under BNCAP undergo strict safety checks like frontal impact, side impact and child seat installation evaluation. A 5-star rating means the car can protect passengers extremely well in a real time crash.
Which Amaze Variants Were Tested?

a sedan body with two seating rows and the tested vehicle weighed 1241 kg during the crash test.
