ŠKODA AUTO India’s SLAVIA sedan scored a full 5-Stars out of 5 at the Global New Car Assessment Programme (Global NCAP) crash tests, making it the safest car ever tested by the Global NCAP. This furthers the cause of Safer Cars for India and makes KODA AUTO India the only manufacturer to have a fleet full of crash-tested cars with 5-stars for both adult and child occupants.
The SLAVIA was designed with a focus on localisation, lower costs of ownership and maintenance, while maintaining ŠKODA’s dynamic driving traits and zero compromise on safety. It was tested internally for a variety of impacts, and its skeletal structure is laser welded and composed of high strength steel.
This rigid and impact-absorbing body structure complements the bevy of active and passive safety technologies, making the SLAVIA an entirely safe car from the inside out.The SLAVIA is equipped with up to 6 airbags, electronic stability control, multi-collision braking, traction control, anti-lock brakes, ISOFIX mounts, Top Tether anchor points, rain-sensing wipers, automatic headlights, and tyre-pressure monitoring. Mr. Petr Šolc, Brand Director, ŠKODA AUTO India said, “It is a stamp on how we have always focused on quality, durability, and safety of our cars. Safety is at the core of our strategy and we will continue to build cars with this philosophy.”
