Bharat NCAP has released crash-test results for the new, third-generation Honda Amaze: the sedan earned the top five stars for adult occupant protection and four stars for child safety.In the frontal impact, the model demonstrated a very high level of protection, broadly in line with the previous generation. The side impact with a moving deformable barrier also brought strong marks, though a moderately increased chest compression curtailed the score in that portion of the test.The Amaze did not reach a five-star outcome for child protection, even though dynamic trials using Honda Baby & Kids i-Size seats were successful. The missing points surfaced during the “vehicle assessment” stage, and BNCAP has not disclosed the details yet. At the same time, the car provides standard ISOFIX mounts and meets current requirements for installing CRS.Even with these nuances, the Amaze’s overall rating stands among the best in its class and underscores the model’s clear progress in passive safety. Taken together, the fundamentals look solid, and the remaining gap appears more procedural than a sign of weakness in core protection.

Bharat NCAP has released crash-test results for the new, third-generation Honda Amaze: the sedan earned the top five stars for adult occupant protection and four stars for child safety.
In the frontal impact, the model demonstrated a very high level of protection, broadly in line with the previous generation. The side impact with a moving deformable barrier also brought strong marks, though a moderately increased chest compression curtailed the score in that portion of the test.
The Amaze did not reach a five-star outcome for child protection, even though dynamic trials using Honda Baby & Kids i-Size seats were successful. The missing points surfaced during the “vehicle assessment” stage, and BNCAP has not disclosed the details yet. At the same time, the car provides standard ISOFIX mounts and meets current requirements for installing CRS.
Even with these nuances, the Amaze’s overall rating stands among the best in its class and underscores the model’s clear progress in passive safety. Taken together, the fundamentals look solid, and the remaining gap appears more procedural than a sign of weakness in core protection.
