Nissan has made a strong claim in terms of safety by launching its new compact SUV Tecton in the Indian market. Nissan Tecton has achieved full 5 star rating in Bharat NCAP crash test. This SUV is the corporate twin of Renault Duster, which is built on the same platform (RGMP). Therefore, it has similar body structure and safety equipment, due to which the same testing of Duster was applied on Tecton.<\/p>\n
Tecton scored 30.49 points out of 32 in adult occupant protection and 45 out of 49 points in child occupant protection.
