New-Gen Volkswagen Tiguan scores 5-star rating in Euro NCAP Crash test.
The new generation of the Volkswagen Tiguan has achieved an impressive five-star rating in the latest Euro NCAP crash tests. This top rating underscores the SUV’s commitment to safety, made possible through advanced accident prevention technologies.
Impressive Safety Scores
The Euro NCAP tests, known for their stringent safety standards, highlighted the Tiguan’s outstanding performance:
- Adult Occupant Protection: 83%
- Child Occupant Protection: 88%
- Vulnerable Road Users Protection: 84%
These scores reflect the effectiveness of the Tiguan’s comprehensive safety features, which include a variety of electronic aids and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS).
Volkswagen Tiguan Advanced Safety Features
The third-generation VW Tiguan boasts a range of high-tech safety features designed to protect both passengers and pedestrians. One notable feature is the exit warning system, which alerts passengers if a bicycle, scooter, or any other vehicle is approaching from behind before they open the door. This significantly reduces the risk of accidents in busy urban environments.
Additionally, the Tiguan is equipped with side airbags that enhance the safety of rear passengers, providing extra protection in the event of a side collision.
Tougher Tests, Stronger Performance
The nearly perfect scores are even more impressive considering that Euro NCAP’s testing protocols were revised last year to be more rigorous. The Tiguan has met and exceeded these tougher standards, reinforcing its reputation as one of the safest SUVs on the market.
Awaiting the Indian Market
While the new Tiguan is making waves internationally, it is yet to arrive in India. Currently, the previous generation of the Tiguan is available in India as a petrol model. The new generation is expected to continue with the petrol engine and will be assembled locally. When it does arrive, it promises to be one of the safest options in its segment, appealing to safety-conscious consumers.
Volkswagen’s commitment to safety and innovation is clear with the new Tiguan. As it prepares to enter the Indian market, it brings with it the promise of cutting-edge safety features and robust performance, setting a new standard for SUVs in its class.
