The pattern of buying a new car has changed over the last 5 years. Earlier, only mileage mattered but now, there are a lot of things. People look at the features, durability and even how powerful the headlamps are. However, if noticed, in the last 1-2 years, people have stared asking about the safety ratings of the car. People are curious about how have cars gotten safer over the years.
If we see the list of all the Indian cars that have gone through crash test, we can see that many have just received 1-2 stars. Earlier, the number of cars were even more. While in 2014-2015, most of the cars came back with 0 or 1 star safety rating, which was actually very dangerous. That included many popular cars like Tata Nano, Maruti Swift, Hyundai i20 and such.

Among the early ones were Volkswagen Polo, Toyota Etios and Maruti Vitara Brezza which got 4-stars. Actually, Polo and Etios were one of the earliest safest cars in India.
