Oh, then how come Hyundai publicizes its star rating for the i20?

There are no independed Indian agency that gives safety ratings for cars sold in India, so the answer is no, there are no ratings.

In daily driving conditions in the city, it gives 11 (with AC) and 13 (without AC). The article mentions that the GP has received a 5-star safety rating, but interestingly the video shows a GP with side airbags as well--and Fiat does not offer more than 2 airbags in any GP model in India! I am sure that impacts the safety rating of the car. Do we know what that rating is in India?

It is clearly mentioned that it is the mileage of the car when it was driven pedal to pedal meaning accelerator pressed fully
It can easily return 11-13 Km/l in daily driving conditions

For something of this calibre, it is astounding that the Dynamic and Active models do not even have manual central locking. That's a no-brainer security feature and it is unreal that engineers who made such a good car couldn't add this little thing in!
Also the mileage as per your road test is very different from the stated mileage by Fiat. They claim about 16Kmpl and you achieved a little over 8Kmpl. One of you is very wrong!!
