3. According to Central Motor Vehicle Regulations (CMVR) that are set
out by ARAI, “crash testing” will become compulsory from October
1, 2017 for all new car models.
A crash test is a form of destructive testing usually performed in order
to ensure safe design standards in crash worthiness and crash
compatibility for various modes of transportation.
Existing models will also need updation, as from October 1, 2019
every single car sold in India will have to undergo a crash test
certification.
These norms will greatly improve the quality of cars in India and cars
will be safer.
5. Hyundai i10 scores a zero star rating in the Global NCAP crash test.
With increased awareness of safety norms, Hyundai has to update its
models and offer more safety features like other competitors.
Grand i10 is sold in India with 5 variants including petrol and diesel
which are: base model- Era, Magna, Sportz, Sportz Opt and Asta.
There is ABS only in the top end version of Asta.
There are dual airbags in Sportz, Sportz Opt and Asta.
6. A car with airbags is considerably safer than one without airbags.
Volkswagen Polo scored a zero star rating without airbags and 4 star
rating with airbags. This resulted in VW making airbags standard
across all variants.
With the increasing safety trends, manufacturers have started to
respond with optional airbags on most of the variants.

A solution to get away with these factors is development of composite
materials with properties of steel.
9. Various National Governments are focussing on reducing
environmental impact owing to the vehicle emissions.
BS 3 vehicles sale has been banned in India with effect from April
1,2017 which has led to a mandatory switch to BS 4 technologies for
the automobile OEMs in India.
Europe is set to follow Stage 6 emission standards to reduce CO2
emissions and implement on road emission tests.
There has been a drive by almost all countries to reduce carbon
footprints of the products and processes.
