The Tiago comes equipped with a host of safety features such as dual airbags, (ABS) Anti-lock Braking System with (CSC) Corner Stability Control & (EBD) Electronic Brakeforce Distribution, rear parking assist and more as standard.
In comparison, the Hyundai Grand i10 also comes packed with similar safety equipment. This includes dual-front airbags, ABS with EBD, a reverse parking camera with assist guidelines, a speed alert system, driver and passenger seat belt pretensioners & load limiters; among others.
However, according to the Grand i10's crash test result, the body shell and front footwell area of the hatchback were deemed unstable by Global NCAP. The results also showcased the adult crash test dummies suffering non-fatal injuries to the lower part of the body. While the child dummy suffered serious injuries to the head — here are more details.
