• Adult occupant protection – The car’s ability to protect drivers and passengers from frontal, lateral, or rear impact as well as whiplash is the basis for the Adult Occupant Protection score.
• Child occupant protection – This evaluation judges the basis of whether the vehicle is compatible with various child restraints of various sizes and designs such as CRS installation score. It also makes sure that it has ISOFIX anchorages for child seats.
• Safety features – It is checked whether the vehicle possesses the required safety features to prevent any kind of incident. These features include ESC, ABS, etc.
