Amidst heightened focus on safety and the forthcoming Bharat NCAP testing program, Hyundai has upgraded its entire product lineup, making six airbags (dual-front, side and curtain airbags) standard. With this, it has become the first mass-market automaker in India to do so.
Most of the Hyundai cars, including the budget-friendly Exter SUV and the recently launched i20 Facelift, were already available with standard six airbags. The only exceptions were the Grand i10 Nios, Venue, Venue N Line and Aura. Now, all of these models also get 6 airbags as standard.
