ASEAN NCAP has awarded the India-made Renault Kwid with zero star rating for its recent crash test. The total score of 24.68 points, counted through adding 10.12 points for adult safety and 14.56 points for child protection, results in zero total star rating.
Mr. David Ward, Global NCAP secretary general, commented that Renault uses double standards for South Asian markets by providing an inferior version of their frame. Those who are not familiar should know that Latin American Kwid scored 3-star safety rating from Global NCAP. These inferior quality cars are sold in both Thailand and Indonesia.
Renault manufactures this Kwid in Tamil Nadu, India and ships them to various other markets like South Asia and Africa. Not just that, the same version is sold in India, with Kwid scoring almost 5000 units a month. If Kwid goes off-production in India, they will lose their present place among top-selling brands for sure.
