If you are planning to buy a family car that not only offers space and comfort but also ensures top-notch safety, here’s some great news for you. The premium MPV from Maruti Suzuki, Invicto, has achieved a 5-star safety rating in Bharat NCAP crash tests. With this result, Invicto has proudly joined the list of the safest vehicles in its category.
Invicto’s Performance in Bharat NCAP
The Bharat NCAP (New Car Assessment Programme) tested the Alpha+ (7-seater) and Zeta+ (8-seater) variants of the Invicto in July 2025. The results were nothing short of impressive.
- Adult Occupant Protection: Scored 30.43 out of 32 points, among the highest in recent test rounds.
- Child Occupant Protection: Scored 45 out of 49 points, highlighting its strong focus on family safety.
The MPV performed very well in the frontal offset crash test and even secured full marks in the side impact test, proving the strength of its structure and the effectiveness of its restraint systems.
Outstanding Child Safety Ratings
Maruti Suzuki has given special attention to child safety in Invicto.
- 18-month-old and 3-year-old dummy tests: The MPV secured a full 24/24 score with rearward-facing child seats.
- Installation checks: Again achieved a perfect 12/12 score.
Though ISOFIX anchors are missing in the third-row seats, the second-row outboard seats come equipped with them as standard, ensuring safer journeys for children.
Safety Features That Stand Out
The Invicto comes loaded with a wide range of safety features, making it a reliable choice for Indian families:
- 6 airbags (front, side, and curtain)
- Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
- ABS with EBD
- Hill-hold assist
- All four disc brakes
- Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
- Electronic parking brake with auto hold
- Pedestrian protection features
These features are available as standard across all trims, giving customers complete peace of mind.
What the Company Says
Speaking on this proud moment, Hisashi Takeuchi, MD & CEO, Maruti Suzuki India Limited, said:
“Safety has always been at the heart of Maruti Suzuki’s product philosophy. We are honoured to receive the prestigious 5-star rating in Bharat NCAP for our premium strong hybrid UV, Invicto. This recognition reflects our commitment to delivering safe and reliable mobility to our customers.”
Conclusion
With this achievement, Maruti Suzuki Invicto proves that Indian buyers don’t have to compromise between comfort, style, and safety. It’s not just a premium MPV but also a trustworthy family companion, ensuring protection for every passenger.
