Tata Sierra Crash Test – Car-to-Car Collision

The last time we saw a car-to-car crash test performed was by Global NCAP in 2019 where they demonstrated the double standards of car manufacturers with Africa-spec and Euro-spec Nissan NP300 pickup truck. After that, we have seen multiple crash tests from GNCAP and BNCAP, but all of them were performed with immovable barriers.

Most car crashes happen between two moving vehicles and to simulate the same, Tata’s internal crash test for their just launched Sierra involved two two Sierras which went through a controlled head-on collision. This is the first time a carmaker operating out of India has showcased a car-to-car internal crash testing.
