Hyundai Grand i10 Nios, Venue, and More Now Get 6 Airbags as Standard
Last month, Hyundai confirmed that several models from its portfolio including the Grand i10 Nios, the Venue, the Alcazar, and the Aura, will now come equipped with six airbags as standard. The announcement was made following the new Verna's GNCAP crash tests, where the sedan earned a perfect 5-star safety rating. With six airbags now standard on all of its models sold in the nation, Hyundai is the only car company in the nation to offer this feature. Dual front airbags, two side airbags, and two curtain airbags are among the six airbags that are now standard equipment on every Hyundai vehicle. With this upgrade, the Grand i10 Nios is currently the most reasonably priced vehicle with this capability available in our market.
Hyundai also stated in October that it would be sending its products for the Bharat NCAP crash tests, although it withheld the model names.
