NATRiP Vehicle Safety Testing Facilities To Be Operational Soon
The
National
Automotive
Testing
and
R&D
Infrastructure
Project
(NATRiP)
will
set
up
seven
new
automotive
design
and
testing
centers
as
per
the
best
global
standards.
This
project
is
said
to
be
fully
operational
by
December
2016.
NATRiP will be setting up its seven new facilities at Maneshwar, Bangalore, Rai Bareli, Silchar, Indore, Pune, and Chennai. These centers will be carrying out the front and side crash tests for the vehicles. With NATRiP centers being fully operational, the government is hoping for the test facility to favor manufacturers in producing safer cars.
"NATRiP's centers will be all ready by the year end. The infotronics laboratory and crash testing labs will be operational by June this year and the high-speed testing track will come up in two years", said Sanjay Bandopadhyay, CEO of NATRiP.
Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) has already set October 2017 as the deadline for mandatory crash test for new models and October 2019 for existing cars.
