When it comes to passenger safety, modern car makers have begun seeing it as a priority. Most automotive companies have been very keen to inject the most sophisticated mechanisms that would minimise the impact of crashes and other mishaps on the roads. Taking a leap into this arena is Skoda Auto India, which has already made major advances that ensure passenger safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a bid to push forward with its sales in India, Skoda Auto India has said that it has raised the bar in terms of safety standards with each new vehicle. Christian Cahn von Seelen, Executive Director, Sales, Marketing and Digital, \u0160koda Auto Volkswagen India has stated that the common thread that binds all its products is the packaging in terms of dynamic drive, features that matter, comfortable ride and most importantly, unparalleled safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Skoda Auto has been present in India for over two decades now, and the MQB-A0-IN platform is the first ever that was specifically developed for the country. The brand\u2019s India 2.0 cars, namely Slavia and Kushaq, which have been developed on this platform, came with a high focus on localisation, lower costs of ownership and maintenance, while maintaining Skoda\u2019s dynamic driving traits and zero compromise on safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
von Seelen added that the company will continue to win the admiration of Indian car buyers, especially those who are conscious about the well-being of their family and the friends they drive with. \u201cAnd while we ensure that our cars have the technology and features that make them the safest in India, all the systems work the best way in harmony with the seat belt worn,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the global arena, Skoda Auto has a 50-year-old legacy with crash tests and safety. A Skoda 100 L is the first documented crash test in Prague-Ruzyn\u011b in former Czechoslovakia in 1972. Currently, the company has a world-class, state-of-the-art Polygon test centre in \u00dahelnice, which has been awarded Crash Laboratory of the year 2020 by the Automotive Testing Technology International trade journal. And every global Skoda car since 2008 has been rated 5-star by Euro NCAP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The automotive major has also been using its expertise in technical development to consistently improve the active and passive safety of its vehicles. This is evident in the fact that even its entry-level models come with numerous assistance systems that are usually only available in vehicles from higher vehicle classes. The crash laboratory Polygon \u00dahelnice provides thorough testing for safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
