New Delhi. The new Honda Amaze 3rd generation has been crash-tested under the Bharat New Car Assessment Program (Bharat NCAP) and the results have shown significant improvement in safety performance. This compact sedan, tested in October 2025, has performed well in both Adult Occupant Protection (AOP) and Child Occupant Protection (COP) categories. According to the official test report, the Amaze 3rd generation has scored 28.33 out of 32 in adult occupant protection and 40.81 out of 49 in child occupant protection. The 3rd generation Amaze has performed well in both the key crash assessments:
• Frontal offset deformable barrier test: 14.33 out of 16
• Side Movable Deformable Barrier Test: 14.00 out of 16
Safety Features
It has been reported that this sedan has been provided with standard frontal airbags, belt pretensioners and load limiters for both the driver and front passenger. Side head curtain airbags are also standard, significantly increasing side-impact protection. Safety assist features like ESC (Electronic Stability Control), seat belt reminders and pedestrian protection are standard across all variants.
• Child Occupant Protection – 40.81 out of 49
• Dynamic Tests: 23.81 out of 24 • CRS Installation: 12 out of 12
The sedan comes with ISOFIX child-seat anchors on the second-row outboard seats and supports i-Size-compatible child restraint systems, which perform very well in frontal and side-impact tests. Crash-test dummies, representing an 18-month-old baby and a 3-year-old child, were effectively protected, and the CRS systems maintained stability and prevented excessive forward movement.
Bharat NCAP crash test results so far
With the latest Bharat NCAP results, the newly tested Honda Amaze 3rd generation has entered at the 22nd position in terms of adult occupant protection. The compact sedan has scored 28.33 out of 32 for adult safety and 40.81 out of 49 for child safety, making it a strong performer among crash-tested cars in India. The top positions are still held by models like Tata Harrier EV, Mahindra XEV 9e and Mahindra BE 6, which have scored a perfect score of 32/32. At the same time, Amaze has left behind many popular mass-market models like Citroen Aircross, Maruti Baleno and Citroen Basalt. Its entry in the list further strengthens Honda’s increasing focus on safety in the compact sedan segment.
