Key Highlights
    Maruti Suzuki has been working hard as the S-Cross's July launch inches closer, and it looks like everything is coming along rather well for this highly-anticipated car. ASEAN NCAP released the crash-test results of the Suzuki S-Cross yesterday, and the car has scored well on the test.

    The agency used an S-Cross manufactured at Suzuki's manufacturing facility in Hungary, and the car in question sported specifications for the Malaysian and Singaporean market. Its list of standard safety provisions comprises 7 airbags, including that for the driver and front passenger, and ESC. The S-Cross received a 5-star rating for Adult Occupant Protection (AOP), and a 4-star rating for Child Occupant Protection (COP) i.e. 81% compliance. The test, referred to as the frontal off-set crash test, involved crashing the car into a crushable aluminium barrier at 63Km/h.

    The Suzuki S-Cross's performance in the test means it is now the 'leading scorer for the SUV category under ASEAN NCAP'.

    Suzuki S-Cross Safety Rating

    This crash test rating will help Maruti Suzuki strengthen the Indian consumer's confidence after its Swift failed the NCAP test last year. The hatchback received a 0-star rating in the 64Km/h frontal collision test.

    As far as the car's specs go, Maruti Suzuki's first crossover will initially be offered with a choice of 2 diesel engines sourced from Fiat - a 1.3-litre multijet and 1.6-litre multijet. While the 1.3-litre motor develops 89bhp and 200Nm of peak torque, the latter produces 118bhp and 320Nm. Its cabin will take cues from the Swift, and will get the same all-black dashboard.
