How safe is your car: India's best selling vehicles which failed crash test (Updated)
Maruti Suzuki Swift
May 22, 2016, 12:08 ISTIn November 2014, India’s one of the top four selling cars was tested by GNCAP.
This hatchback lacked airbags and received Global NCAP’s lowest rating of zero stars (out of a possible five) for occupant protection in an offset frontal crash at 40 mph — a test that nearly all models in North America, Europe, Japan and Australia ace.
Injury measures taken from driver dummies indicated high risk of life-threatening injuries.
From November 2015, Maruti Suzuki introduced dual airbags as an option across all variants of Swift and Swift Dzire. So far it is made available only on the top trims.
