Tata Tiago has scored a 4-star rating adult protection in the Global NCAP crash tests under Safer Cars for India initiative
A Tata Tiago owner has crashed head-on into a brick wall similar to what happened with an Altroz a few months ago. The impact has been so huge that the car has broken through the 8-inch thick brick wall of a house. We have already seen several examples of strong build quality of Tata cars before and the recent crash is in line with those. But it’s still surprising to see the Tiago totally intact even after making its way almost through the brick wall.

As seen in the video above, you can see a Tata Tiago hanging out of a thick boundary wall. As seen in the visuals, a thick piece of wall can be seen lying broken below but the car has suffered almost no damage at all. Pretty unsurprisingly, even the occupant is completely fine. It’s not clear how this accident happened but it’s being guessed that the driver was a newbie who was just learning how to drive well. He seemed to have misjudged accelerator pedal for brake pedal and ended up hitting the wall head-on. The latest crash serves as another This testament to the great build quality of the most affordable product in the Indian carmaker’s lineup.
Many owners of Tata Motors products have shared their experiences of how their vehicles have kept them totally safe in such unfortunate accidents. Tata has already established itself well as the manufacturer of some of the safest cars on sale in the country today. These vehicles not only boast of top scores in Global NCAP crash tests but even prove their crash-worthiness in real-time scenarios such as the one seen above. The Tiago has scored a 4-star rating in Global NCAP crash tests, which makes it the safest product in its segment. Apart from this, the Nexon, Altroz and Punch have scored a 5-star rating in Global NCAP crash tests but they’re substantially costlier than the Tiago.
