As per GNCAP, in adult occupancy the protection for the driver’s and passenger’s head and neck was rated as good, while the driver’s chest received marginal protection and the passenger’s chest had adequate protection. Both the driver’s and passenger’s knees were well-protected. The bodyshell and footwell areas were rated stable, with the bodyshell able to withstand additional loads. The sedan also performed well in side impact tests, offering good protection for the head, chest, abdomen, and pelvis. However, in the side pole impact test, the head, abdomen, and pelvis received good protection, while the chest area showed only marginal protection.
In Child occupancy, the Maruti Dzire scored 39.20 out of 42 points. The report noted that the 3-year-old child seat, installed forward-facing with ISOFIX anchorages, prevented excessive forward movement in a frontal impact, offering full protection to the head and chest, though limited protection to the neck. The 18-month-old child seat, installed rearward-facing with ISOFIX, fully protected the head during frontal impact. Both child restraint systems (CRS) provided full protection during the crash, with successful installation in all positions.
