NEW DELHI: Mahindra &
Mahindra's Quanto MPV and Renault's Duster SUV offer you 'jump seats',
or extra seats just around the boot area, but without the crucial, and
mandated, seat belts.
Almost all carmakers, from Maruti Suzuki to Hyundai and Honda, offer variants in India without life-saving features such as airbags and ABS (anti-lock braking system) although these features are included in vehicles exported to even smaller markets.
Despite rising cases of fatalities on Indian roads due to the lack of safety features, security of in-cabin passengers appears to have taken a back seat as sales-hungry companies engage in a high-pitched battle to bag customers in one of the most high-potential markets.
