Within a limited budget imagine the car buying public has two options to go for:
Option A) A smaller car with ABS, EBD & airbags
Option B) A larger car without active safety features.
Consider ‘option A’ as an A Star ZXI with ABS, EBD, Airbags etc and ‘option B’ as a Ritz LXI. A Star ZXI has better safety features but Ritz is a larger car and maybe better engineered too.
Links pointing to EuroNCAP rating of both A Star and Ritz:
Euro NCAP – For safer cars | Suzuki Alto
Euro NCAP – For safer cars | Suzuki Splash
But please bear in mind that these Euro models have multiple airbags and are not exactly the variants we get here. This is just to give an idea of how both vehicles if equipped with Airbags etc would fare in the crash and Ritz scores better in this regard.
But here, in this post, we are comparing A Star ZXI ABS/EBD/Airbags with Ritz LXI, which car would offer better crash protection? Which car is safer?
