new Delhi. The year 2022 is about to end, this year there was a boom of some big luxurious cars. These cars made their place in the middle class families in the automobile industry. But in today’s time, while buying a car, customers pay a lot of attention to the safety features of the car along with the look features. This is the reason why crash tests have become very important in today’s time. Often people also finalize the car on the basis of these crash tests. In the year 2022 also many flagship cars have gone through this global cash test. Many cars have passed it, but there are many cars which have not been able to pass the cash test result. India TV Paisa team today brings 5 such cars which despite being famous have failed in crashes this year.
Maruti S-Presso
Let us tell you that Maruti’s S-Presso scored 20.03 points for adult passenger protection and only 3.52 points for child occupant safety. The child seat was not able to prevent forward head movement during a frontal impact test for a 3-year-old child. However, for an 18-month-old child, the child seat provides good head protection and poor chest protection.
Maruti Swift
Maruti’s Swift is the biggest name in budget cars in India. The Swift scored 19.19 points for adult passenger safety and 16.68 points for child occupant protection. In the side impact test, head protection, abdominal and pelvic protection were rated as good, while chest protection was rated as poor. Side pole impact test was not done as the car does not get side head protection.
Maruti Ignis
In terms of protection, the Ignis scored 16.48 points for adult occupant protection and just 3.86 points for child occupant protection. The car provided head and neck protection for the driver and passenger. But there was not much protection on the driver’s chest. At the same time, the protection of the knees of the driver and the passenger was also not enough.
Hyundai Tucso
Hyundai cars are really strong. But it is really strange that Hyundai’s premium SUV Tucson failed the car crash test. Actually, this expensive SUV with a range of Rs 27 to 34 lakh has proved to be a letdown in terms of car safety. This car has been given a zero safety rating in LatinNCAP’s safety crash test. Latin NCAP has given this car a zero rating during the safety crash test. Let us tell here that the Tucson variant with two airbags has failed in the crash test. While the variant with its 6 airbags has been given a 3 Star safety rating.
Crash Test Rating of Honda WR-V
Significantly, Honda’s WR-V has also proved to be a failure in the crash test. It got a score of 59% for detecting pedestrians. Thus it got only 1 star rating out of 5. According to this rating, this car is not safe for adults as well as for children. The special thing is that the Honda Jazz available in India is also WR-V based, which is counted among the safe cars.
