Global NCAP crash tests have been very instrumental in giving us a complete picture of which car is the safest on the roads. They have also updated their crash test protocol, and as per the results from these crash tests, here are some of the top safest cars on Indian roads.

The Ferrari F142 Type 458 Italia was among the assets recovered from criminals by Czech authorities. The supercar will have nationwide jurisdiction and will be driven only by specially-trained police officers.

The non-sunroof (NSR) Style trim is another new element. It falls between between the present Ambition and Style variations. The NSR Style is a variation of the 1.0 TSI Style.

The Virtus is built on the MQB A0 IN platform, which was developed specifically for India. It will replace the long-running Vento in Volkswagen's Indian portfolio. Virtus' underpinnings are shared with other Volkswagen Group cars. Skoda Slavia, Skoda Kushaq, and Volkswagen Taigun SUV are just a few examples.

The India-spec SUV, on the other hand, receives some distinctive features, such as new all-LED headlights with integrated LED DRLs, new alloy wheels, and updated bumpers. This seven-seater SUV has measurements of 4,769 mm in length, 1,859 mm in width, and 1,698 mm in height. It had a 2,782 mm wheelbase.

The Skoda Slavia 1.5 TSI is only available in the top-tier Style trim and it includes features such as a 10-inch touchscreen, a fully digital instrument cluster, automatic air conditioning, rear AC vents, ventilated front seats, sunroof, cruise control, automatic headlamps, keyless entry, tyre pressure monitoring system, and more.

The car will compete on the tarmac with vehicles like the Volkswagen Tiguan and the Hyundai Tucson.

The SUV returned to the nation after a nearly two-year absence; the Czech carmaker discontinued sales of the Skoda Kodiaq SUV in India after the country switched to tighter BS6 emission regulations.

Skoda Auto India grew by 130 per cent in 2021, from 10,387 vehicles sold in 2020 to 23,858 units sold in 2021. Skoda Auto India intends to increase its 2021 sales volume in 2022 while maintaining its mid-term objective of 100,000 vehicles for 2025.

Select automotive dealerships have already begun accepting pre-orders, and Skoda is expected to release pricing on January 10.

Skoda Rapid has done well for the brand, particularly in India. However, the automobile has aged, and here's why Skoda released Skoda Slavia, which will be on sale in India next year. 

The mid-size SUV may come with a 1.5-litre petrol engine with a 5-speed manual and CVT automatic gearbox.

Kia Motors sold 10,488 mid-size SUVs last month, while Hyundai Creta sold 6,455 units, Volkswagen sold 2,551 Taiguns, and Skoda delivered 2,413 Kushaqs.

The Slavia is built-in Pune and is based on the MQB-A0-IN version of the Volkswagen Group's Modular Transverse Toolkit, which Skoda Auto has particularly modified for the Indian market.

The mid-size car was supposed to be presented towards the end of this year, but it has now been claimed that the debut might take place next month.
