| ![]() It is commendable how a well thought, well engineered structure can really survive crash tests. Kudos where its due, hope the same structure and reinforcement is maintained in India specific car as well. On a side note, pedestrian leg test shows how wafer thin bonnet flexes even at slightest impact. Attention, this test checks for that plastic bumper absorption capacity and flexibilty which it does well, please don't come after me with the theory for wafer thin sheet metal in bonnet. ![]() |

![]() A thread is created on the Swift or the NCAP safety rating for the Kodiaq is shared because these are slated for India. For e.g.; a Seat Ateca might have got 5-star NCAP rating, but that probably won't be discussed here because of no relevance in India context. | |

| ![]() The 2017 Maruti Dzire in India weighs in at around 870 kilos (Petrol; Source: Carwale) which should be around 60-70 kilos heavier than new Swift (as per older models). That put put the new Swift due for launch in India later this year to be around 800-810 kilos. Is there any data on the kerb-weight of the car tested? The UK version is 890 kilos I think (1.2L Petrol; Source: Autoexpress UK). That should give us an idea how much difference is there between the European model and the model that is due for India (or even the Dzire). If the difference between the Indian Swift and tested car is in excess of 30-40 kilos, I feel these tests have no implications for India. Please feel free to correct me if any of my data is incorrect. Last edited by feluda86 : 1st June 2017 at 15:57. Reason: Typing mistake |

Senior - BHPian | ![]() This rating is good and very much what we expected. But the stars are low as the new ratings also include the active safety systems which anyway aren't coming here. Now I wait for the Global NCAP to test the new DZire and the Baleno. Those would be the most relevant cars to test given their high sales. |

![]() It would still be interesting to know how different the tested model is from the model that is due for India (or for that matter the recently launched Dzire). For me, the only way the end customer can know (apart from the safety packs) is by the kerb weight. I am sure that is not an air-tight method as strength of the steel used is more important but at least gives some idea about them being different. | |
