Hyundai Safety Features: Hyundai To Offer ADAS On All Cars By 2025 After Making Six Airbags As Standard

Hyundai recently announced that all upcoming Hyundai cars will now get 6 airbags as standard after the Hyundai Verna scored a 5-star rating in the Global NCAP tests. Now Hyundai has announced that by 2025 the entire Hyundai vehicle line-up will come equipped with ADAS. 

Hyundai has adopted a new strategy for enhanced safety with more focus on Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS and the standardisation of key safety features such as ESC, VSM, and Hill-start assist across all models and variants. Hyundai believes that these features have proven highly effective in accident prevention. ADAS is currently available in five Hyundai models, with plans to incorporate ADAS in 60 percent of its lineup by 2024.
