Highlights

  • Rear seat belt reminder might be a standard feature in the near future.
  • Very few carmakers offer 3-point seatbelts for all occupants as standard.
  • Government wants to make wearing seatbelts mandatory for rear passengers.

Car safety has become one of the major topics of discussion in the Indian auto industry right now, especially the need for 3-point seatbelts for all occupants. After the recent road accident that led to the death of former Tata Sons Chairman, Cyrus Mistry, the transport ministry plans to enforce new rules for road safety including mandatory seat belts for rear passengers and implementing heavy fines on rule-breakers. In fact, the centre has said that car manufacturers will soon have to offer seatbelt warning alerts for rear passengers as well.

Now, car&bike has always been one of the flag-bearers of road safety, and we certainly welcome the decision of the government with open arms, but we also think that car manufacturers need to start offering a 3-point seatbelt for the rear middle passenger as well, in addition to the alarm. While premium cars get it as a standard fitment, right now, very few carmakers offer this safety feature. So, here are 8 cars under Rs. 25 lakh that come with 3-point seatbelts for both front and rear occupants as a standard feature.
