Maruti Invicto Secures 5-Star Safety Rating In Bharat NCAP

After Dzire and Victoris, the Invicto has become the third model from Maruti Suzuki to secure a full 5-star safety rating in Bharat NCAP crash tests. For those unaware, the Invicto is essentially a rebadged version of the Toyota Innova Hycross, which also secured the same crash test results in the past.
