New Euro NCAP crash test results show that the latest generation of the Volkswagen Tiguan has scored five stars. Using accident prevention technologies in the new Tiguan helped it achieve a score of 83% for adult occupant protection, 88% for child occupant protection and 84% for keeping vulnerable road users safe.
The VW Tiguan is the third generation model in the international market and features several electronic aids along with a series of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). There is an exit warning system that prevents the passenger from opening the door when it detects a bicycle, scooter or any other vehicle approaching from behind. Next, the SUV is equipped with side airbags to improve the safety of the rear passenger compartment.
The near-perfect scores in the Euro NCAP crash tests are commendable as the revised tests enforced last year are more stringent. The Tiguan meets all the safety requirements and it will be interesting to know when this third generation car will arrive in India. The previous generation is currently on sale in India as a petrol model and the new generation will remain the same. It will come to the country via the locally assembled route and will be one of the safest cars in its class.
