The Global NCAP has called out carmakers such as Hyundai for what the agency calls a “double standard” when it comes to vehicle safety.
Both of these models are the cheapest sedans from Hyundai that consumers can buy in their respective markets. However, the Accent, with its standard 6 SRS airbags and electronic stability control showed solid crash safety performance. Meanwhile, the Grand i10 sedan, fitted only with two airbags, performed poorly particularly in protecting the chest and head of the driver.
Stephan Brodziak, Latin NCAP Chairman said, “It hurts to witness once again the terrible double standard with which part of the car industry operates in Latin American and Caribbean countries. This inevitably forces us to think about the suffering that these cars, built under this scheme, end up causing to our families, societies and economies.
