We can certainly quantify what a "safe" car is, however. And what we know as the Alto doesn't quite make it in terms of protection to occupants. Search the Euro NCAP database.

@Charles - I checked out the Euro NCAP website but could not find any data for testing of the Alto (neither as Maruti Suzuki Alto nor under the Suzuki category).




S = k.I^2, where S is the amount of stupidity a species possesses, I is the intelligence the species has and k is the universal constant of stupidity.

Oh...so they didn't bother to even test it...? That's a shame.

Merry Christmas to you too!!

The Alto has been crash tested.




I tried this and I had understeer, I tried that and I had oversteer, at the end of the corner I just ran out of talent!

i guess the body of Reva is made of fibre...so that for small impacts it won't have any dents on the car...
