Misconceptions about GNCAP
In no particular order, here are some of the misconceptions I ve seen around the social media. Comparison of Safety scores
Kia Seltos barely managed to get a 3 star rating. That would make it comparable to a 2 Star Swift/WagonR/Santro yes?
Tigor scored a 4 star rating, so I m being given a car with safety of a Mahindra Marrazo/Thar because they scored 4 stars right?
Unfortunately, No.
Firstly as I ve explained, the crash test simulates a collision with a car of the same weight, which is another reason why cross comparing car ratings between different segments is meaningless.
