Maruti Suzuki Enhances Vehicle Safety, Announces 6 Airbags As Standard In All Cars

Maruti Suzuki Cars Safety:  Maruti Suzuki India Limited (MSIL), the largest car manufacturer in the country, has announced the standardisation of 6 airbags across some of its models. This step will enhance passenger safety, and WagonR, Alto K10, Celerio, and Eeco models will be the latest ones to receive this update, joining their siblings such as Swift, Dzire, and Brezza.

The latest addition of the 6-airbags to Maruti Suzuki Cars will be accompanied by an array of advanced safety technologies, including an Electronic Stability Control (ESP), Hill Hold Assist, Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), and more. However, while the 6-airbags will be standard for all the variants of the Maruti Suzuki cars, features such as ESP and Hill Hold Assist will be limited to fewer models and variants. It is to be noted that Hill Hold Assist is offered as a standard feature across all the variants of Brezza, Ertiga, Swift, Dzire, and AGS variants of WagonR, S-Presso, and Celerio.
