Maruti Suzuki may be the largest car seller in India, but when it comes to safety, Maruti cars lag behind other companies including Tata, Mahindra, and Hyundai. There have been reports for a long time that Maruti will improve the safety features in its cars and in this effort, models like the new Swift, Dzire, WagonR, and Alto K10 as well as Celerio were introduced with 6 airbags as standard features.
Features like Electronic Stability Control and ABS were also kept, but still, most models only had 2 airbags as standard. In such a situation, Maruti Suzuki is planning many special things in the coming time, which will remove the complaints of the customers. This new emphasis of Maruti on safety is a big relief for the customers.
There can be a big bang this year
If media reports are to be believed, Maruti Suzuki is preparing to introduce its entire lineup with 6 airbags as standard and this is a big update related to safety! However, it is not yet decided what will be launched and when, but it is believed that in this financial year, 6 airbags will come as a standard feature in all variants of all cars sold at Maruti Suzuki’s Nexa and Arena dealerships! Some other safety features can also be added to these, which seem very important in the present times. This important step will make Maruti’s cars even stronger in terms of safety.
Affordable cars will also be great for safety
Let us tell you that in the coming time, all variants of top-selling cars like Baleno and Fronx as well as affordable cars like Ignis and S-Presso can also be seen with 6 airbags and this is a big deal for the customers. Certainly, with this feature the passenger will get better safety inside the car.
Let us tell you one more thing here currently, Maruti Suzuki’s new Dzire is the only car that has a 5-star safety rating. Now with better safety in other popular and affordable cars, the trust of the customers will be strengthened even more.
Preparation to bet on a 5-star safety rating
It is believed that in the coming time, many more cars of Maruti Suzuki can achieve a 5-star safety rating. Recently, pictures of the crash test of Maruti Suzuki’s upcoming electric SUV E-Vitara were also leaked and it is expected that it can get a 5-star safety rating. Improved safety features can be good news for customers, but there are also expectations of an increase in its prices, which can disappoint customers a bit. However, paying a little more at the cost of safety can also be a wise decision, because life is everything! This big bet of Maruti Suzuki on safety will strengthen the company’s image even more.
