Tata motors ne kaafi time tak humein wait karwane ke baad finally India mein new-gen Sierra launch kar di hai. Is baar company ne sirf 11.49 lakh ki shocking introductory pricing se hi sabko surprise nahi kiya, rather ek head-to-head collision test karke bhi sabko amaze kar diya. Haan, India mein first time kisi automaker ne full scale car-to car head-on crash test kiya hai. Crash ka result kya aaya? Let's see in this article.
Car-to-Car crash test for the Tata Sierra
In the short video jo Tata morts ne Sierra ke launch event par dikhaya hai, wahan 2 screens thi jo bilkul same sequence dikha rahi thi, woh wala process jo crash test se pehle hota hai. Phir video mein kya hota hai? Both of the screens par Sierra tunnel se bahar aati hui dikhti hai.
But shock sabko tab laga jab mirror wala effect sirf screen par nahi, real life mein bhi ho gaya. Video mein dono Sierra cars seedhe head on takraati hui dikh rahi thi, first time aise car-to-car head on collision test. Yeh test basically is SUV ki real structural strength dikhane ke liye kiya gaya tha.
In this video, yeh highlight hua ki both of the SUVs ke A-pillar bilkul theek rahe or roof structure bhi collapse nahi hua. Cabin space bhi dono cars ka safe tha. Aur sabse acchi baat, damage hone ke baad bhi doors easily open ho gaye. Overall, vehicle ki safety kaafi solid dikh rahi thi.
What did Tata Motors say about this different crash test?
Launch event ke time, Tata Motors ne highlight kiya ki yeh test iss liye kiya gaya so that dekh saken Tata cars real-world situations mein kaise perform karti hai. Static wall test actual accidents forces ko properly capture hi nahi karte. Company chahti thi ki bilkul unfiltered, real crash behavior dikhaya jaye. No filters, no CGI, or India mein safety ek new benchmark set ho head-on crash test ke through.
Our opinion on the head-on crash test
Tata Motors ne jo world ko dikhaya hai, wo kaafi impressive hai. Abhi tak India mein kisi aur automaker ne aise real-world crash protection test karke actually showcase nahi kiya hai. Lakin haan, yeh yaad rakhna chahiye ki Sierra ki actual safety ratings abhi tak reveal nahi hui hai.
New Sierra ki actual crash safety rating toh tabhi pata chalegi jab Bharat NCAP ke official crash test honge. Bharat NCAP mein adult or child occupant score, body shell ki strength, ESC, braking or post crash safety sab officially reveal hote hai.
Experts ka yeh maanna hai ki Sierra easily Bharat NCAP 5-star safety rating le legi. Safety features ki baat karein toh Tata Sierra mein Level 2 ADAS, multiple airbags, ESC, ABS, EBD, blind spot monitoring or kaafi saare safety features mill jaate hai.
