Tata Harrier EV Top Scores in Child Safety Assessments
The crash test report says that the safety for the driver and front passenger was always rated as ‘good’ in different types of crashes – whether it was from the front, the side barrier, or the tougher side pole impact. The strong structure of the car and how well the seat belts and airbags worked helped the electric SUV get a better adult safety score than its petrol or diesel version.
When it comes to child safety, the Harrier EV scored a very good 45 points out of 49. In the child safety tests, it got a perfect 24 out of 24 points. Also, the rear-facing i-Size seats for 18-month and 3-year-old dummies scored full marks, getting 12 out of 12. The only marks lost were in the overall vehicle checks, where the EV scored 9 out of 13.
