Five Questions With Mahindra South Africa About Safety

Mahindra has made no secret of its focus on vehicle safety and developing vehicles with the highest possible safety standards.

The company underscored this commitment with a recent announcement that the Global New Car Assessment Programme gave the Mahindra XUV300 a full five-star test rating in its #SaferCarsForAfrica vehicle crash test campaign.

With its five-star rating, the XUV300 is officially the safest vehicle ever tested for the #SaferCarsForAfrica campaign. This mirrors an equally impressive achievement in India, where the XUV300 also reigns supreme and where the GNCAP testing authority gave Mahindra their first Safer Choice Award for their commitment to road safety.

Arrive Alive sat down with the CEO of Mahindra South Africa, Rajesh Gupta, to talk about Mahindra and road safety.

1. Your XUV300 is the first vehicle to receive a full five stars from the GNCAP. How did you achieve that?

We are indeed very proud of our achievement, especially since the XUV300, which was tested was only equipped with two airbags and not seven like on our top-of-the-range W8 models. This means that even the entry-level models meet the highest GNCAP safety standards.

To receive such a high crash-test rating requires very intricate planning and testing by the engineering and design departments, well before the first XUV300 was ever built. The very platform and body of the XUV300 are designed to best disperse crash energy and keep the occupants safe.

With such fine engineering as the foundation, the dynamic safety equipment simply adds to an already high standard.

2. Vehicle safety is not the most glamorous marketing topic. People are often far more interested in performance and handling. Why focus on safety?

Mahindra believes in making a positive contribution to every society in which it operates. This is especially true in South Africa, which we see as our second home outside of India.

During the lockdowns of 2020, we focused our corporate social investment and support on our public health officials and anyone in an essential service. For 2021, we shift our focus to road safety. South Africa still has one of the highest incidents of road accidents and deaths of any developing country, and we feel we can make a meaningful impact by adding to the body of knowledge on road safety, responsible road use and the working and importance of different vehicle safety equipment.

We realise that road safety takes a back seat to more emotive marketing topics, but with the XUV300 we have shown that you do not have to compromise between performance and safety, you can have both.

We would consider this campaign a success if people start caring more about their vehicle’s active and passive safety equipment and, where applicable, take heed of the external endorsement from a global authority like the GNCAP.

3. You mentioned that the entry-level XUV300 was tested in the GNCAP crash tests. Why not choose a more expensive model with more safety equipment?

That is a very important question. By testing the most basic XUV300 model, we can get a very accurate assessment of the integral safety of the vehicle and of the baseline protection that every owner of an XUV300 can expect.

If you test only the vehicle with the most safety equipment, as some manufacturers do, you may create a false impression of the level of safety of a specific model range.

We want to make sure that people realise that with a Mahindra, you do not have to compromise on the things that matter to you, simply because you are looking for a more affordable vehicle.

4. In its tests, the GNCAP makes reference to dynamic and passive safety. Could you briefly explain the difference?

Dynamic safety refers to all the equipment that help to keep the occupants safe while the vehicle is moving. It includes equipment such as ABS brakes and electronic brake-force distribution and also the way in which the vehicle was designed to be sure-footed and predictable, even in emergency manoeuvres.

Passive safety equipment only works when it is called into action, for instance when you are in an accident. This includes airbags and seatbelts.

Both active and passive safety are dependent on good engineering and design. If a vehicle is poorly designed, the addition of ABS brakes or airbags may not be enough to mitigate the force of an impact.

This is why a crash test like the GNCAP test is so important because it exposes every vehicle to the same impact forces and then determines, in black and white, how well they perform.

5. Mahindra is headquartered in India, another country with a high road fatality rate. Does this influence the way in which Mahindra looks at vehicle safety?

Much of what Mahindra is doing in South Africa will mirror similar campaigns and activities in India. For instance, for their 2020 Road Safety Week, Mahindra employees in India volunteered 17 337 hours of their free time to help with charitable projects focused on advancing road safety.

Our #SaferDrivesSaferLives campaign also mirrors what Mahindra is doing in India, and we hope it will have an equally large impact on road safety in South Africa.

To return to your question, the safety of our vehicles is at the very heart of our vehicle design and testing process. For instance, the new Thar, which is expected in South Africa later this year, recently achieved a four-star rating, which is the highest ever for a new vehicle with a ladder frame.

As we develop the next generation of our models, we will make sure that the highest level of safety is designed for the vehicles.

Best SUV Cars In India

Best SUV Cars In India

SUVs have become a popular car type in the industry today. Almost 1 out of every 3 cars that rolls out of the showroom is an SUV. There are a number of reasons why SUVs have become such a popular vehicle among the masses. Modern SUVs come with a long list of features that rival their sedan counterparts. When you couple this with a strong road presence and a go-anywhere attitude, the SUV is truly a sound option. If you are looking for the best SUV under 15 Lakhs, read on while we help you figure out what suits you best. 

We present to you a comprehensive list of the best SUVs under Rs. 20 lakhs and Rs. 10 Lakhs.

Kia Seltos 

The Seltos is Kia’s first model in India commissioned with the uphill task of establishing the Korean auto giant in the Indian market. It unsurprisingly did not disappoint. The car had all the right ingredients for the job. Attractively designed, keenly priced and available with a wide range of engine and gearbox options. You can opt for the 1.5-litre petrol, 1.4-litre turbo-petrol and 1.5-litre diesel engines. The individual engines are available with manual and automatic gearbox options. All versions of the Seltos are BS6 compliant with the manufacturer keeping a check on the latest norms. 

 Mahindra Thar

The Mahindra Thar is the true off-roader. The all-terrain monster can negotiate the beaten track like no other. The car is surprisingly capable as an everyday vehicle with creature comforts like AC, climate control, and telescopic steering. The all new Thar is an embodiment of the original Jeep with its boxy looks and well shaped front and rear bumpers.  The Thar is available with diesel and petrol engine options and there are three roof options as well.

 MG Hector

The Hector is Chinese-owned British carmaker Morris Garages’ initiation to the Indian market. At first glance, it sure has some interesting ingredients to offer. An eye catching design, massive proportions and new-age tech make it a well-rounded package that should definitely be on the radar of prospective mid-size SUV owners. The car’s engine choices include a petrol-manual, a petrol-automatic and a diesel-manual. There is also the option of mild-hybrid technology on the petrol-manual powertrain. A major talking point is the industry first 5 year/unlimited km warranty that the car offers.

Hyundai Creta

The Hyundai Creta has been without doubt one of the most successful vehicles that has come from the  Hyundai stables. The car got an all new 2020 facelift with a host of cosmetic and mechanical upgrades.  One of the prominent features of the new Creta is a bold front grille with an updated set of tail lamps. The interior remains disguised, but it is likely to have the same layout as the current model. When it comes to the engine options, the new car gets a 115PS 1.5-litre diesel and 140PS 1.4-litre turbo-petrol engine with a 6-speed manual, automatic and a 7-speed DCT gearbox options.

Mahindra Scorpio 

The Scorpio SUV is undoubtedly Mahindra’s biggest hit. Its tough build makes it well-suited to rough usage and to many, the upright shape gives it the right image too. The Mahindra Scorpio is available in 7-, 8- and 9-seat configurations and there are lots of versions to choose from. Automatic transmission isn’t on offer but you can choose from 2.5-litre and 2.2-litre diesel engines; the latter is available in two states of tune, and four-wheel drive is also an option.

 Toyota Innova Crysta

The Innova Crysta is a popular MUV (Multi Utility Vehicle) from the Japanese automobile manufacturer Toyota. The car was first launched in May 2008 and has since seen a number of upgrades including the 2016 Crysta. The car gets cosmetic and mechanical upgrades and is bigger, better looking and more luxurious than ever before. It also boasts a BS6 compliant 2.4-litre, four-cylinder diesel engine and a 2.7-litre petrol engine. 

 Mahindra XUV 500

The XUV 500 is a 7 seater SUV from the Indian automobile manufacturer Mahindra. The car was first introduced in 2011 and has seen multiple upgrades including a facelift in 2017. The XUV 500 new model gets more power, new features and a long-overdue automatic transmission. The XUV500 is available in petrol-auto, diesel-manual and diesel-auto forms while the diesels can also be had with all-wheel drive. Powering the diesel is a 2.2 liter mHawk engine that delivers 140bhp of power and 320Nm of torque; while the petrol motor is a 2.2-litre mHawk engine that delivers 140bhp of power and 320Nm of torque.

 Jeep Compass

The Jeep Compass Is an all-round SUV that’s perfectly made for India. Tough, capable and built to last, the Compass feels like a proper Jeep. The standard Compass is available in petrol-manual, petrol-auto, diesel-manual and diesel-auto forms, the latter two of which can be had with all-wheel drive as well. The whole range was given a facelift in early 2021, which remained mechanically unchanged but brought significant improvements to the interior. The new model Compass has taken things to proper luxury car levels in terms of quality, appointments and equipment.

 Tata Safari

The lord of the SUVs, the Tata Safari is back in an all new avatar. Tata has brought the Safari name back, a seven-seat cousin of the Harrier. Unlike previous Safaris, which used ladder-frame chassis and traditional, rear-biased 4x4, the new one borrows the Harrier’s (actually Land Rover) D8 platform and is front-wheel-drive only. It's powered by a 170hp FCA-sourced 2.0-litre diesel engine, which can be had with either a six-speed manual or six-speed torque-converter automatic gearbox.

Tata Harrier

The Harrier is a premium SUV from the Indian automobile manufacturer Tata. The car was first introduced in 2019 and has seen one upgrade including a facelift in 2020. The new Harrier gets more power, new features and a long-overdue automatic transmission. One of the defining features of the Harrier is the Land Rover platform that the SUV has been built on. This makes the Harrier a force to reckon with. This platform is powered by the 2.0-litre turbo-diesel. The engine also happens to power the Jeep Compass, which is a 170hp power-house of a motor. 

 Final Thoughts

Rugged looks, big tyres and a go-getter attitude make the modern SUVs in India a sophisticated piece of engineering. If you are looking for an SUV under 20 Lakhs, make sure to go through our list carefully before coming to a decision on which SUV to buy. Understanding key specifications like engine type, seating capacity and price are key factors in getting the right SUV.  

Remember to Buy Insurance

Once you have found your dream SUV below Rs. 15 Lakhs, make sure to give your car the much needed protection of a good car insurance. In the event of an accident or natural calamity, your car will be protected for any eventuality.

A great place to get your SUV insured is Finserv MARKETS. Here you will find some of the best insurance plans that offer own-damage protection and third party protection.
