This is why Mahindra Scorpio-N got zero rating
Mahindra Scorpio-N got a poor rating in Australia because ANCAP gives 0-star to all vehicles without advanced driver assist systems. Whether this platform takes into account anything else or not, if the vehicle does not have Advanced Driver Assist System (ADAS), then it gives 0-star by default in terms of safety rating. For your information, let us tell you that currently ADAS feature has not been added to Mahindra SUV N.
ANCAP test report
According to this report, the SUV has got a score of 14.27 out of 16 in the child occupant protection test, and 8 out of 8 in the side dynamic test. The only requirement for ANCAP vehicles is that they be equipped with ADAS feature, this was updated on January 1, 2023, currently ANCAP has given this SUV a score of 0 out of 18 for not being equipped with ADAS feature.
Features like Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) like Autonomous Emergency Braking System (AEB) and Lane Support System (LSS) are not provided in the Australian Scorpio-N.

Company’s response to 0-star rating
After receiving this rating from ANCAP, the company replied that Mahindra’s dedication to providing safe, reliable SUVs to its customers is unwavering. Scorpio-N was given a 5-star safety rating by Global NCAP on July 1, 2022 in the new crash test protocol. This SUV became India’s first body-on-frame SUV to achieve 5 star rating.
According to the specific requirements of ANCAP, the company is preparing to meet these safety rules and requirements for Australia as part of its product mid-cycle update. The upcoming SUV will be updated and will also meet the latest ANCAP safety norms.
