Maruti Suzuki is often criticised by users on the internet for its poor build quality and mediocre crash test ratings. The Maruti Suzuki Brezza, however, scored a 4-star crash test rating at the GNCAP's test bed. With great results received for the Brezza, the masses were eager to know the Global NCAP crash test rating of the Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara. That said, Maruti Suzuki decided not to send their cars for tests to GNCAP. They announced to send their cars to the indigenous testing facility - Bharat NCAP. While we are still waiting for the results to be out soon, the mid-size SUV - Grand Vitara, is snapped during the tests at the Bharat NCAP facility.

Brands like Volkswagen and Skoda have also secured a 5-star rating for the Taigun and Kushaq, respectively.
