This Mahindra KUV100 accident has proved the strong build quality and safety of Mahindra’s smallest offering, the Maruti Ignis-rivalling Mahindra KUV100. It must be noted that this cross-hatch isn't tested by NCAP

Mahindra cars have been highly appreciated for their solid build, durable engines, good safety quality along with a long-lasting shelf life. That’s true for the Mahindra XUV300, which is recognized as the safest car of India, and for the Marazzo that is known as the safest MPV of the country. Even with Mahindra’s smallest offering, the KUV100 gets great build components that could be shown in this accident case.

It can be easily seen that the driver of the KUV100 was speeding before he started losing control and ended up hitting harshly into a compound wall on the left. There’s even a house gate that the car broke off and a huge part of the compound wall was completely smashed into pieces then.
