Maruti Suzuki India (MSI) wants the government to reconsider the proposal to make six airbags mandatory in passenger vehicles
The auto major noted that the regulation would largely impact the cost-sensitive entry-level car segment
The prices will further go up leading to further shrinking of the domestic small car industry
It will make it even more difficult for two-wheeler users to upgrade to small cars
As per the government, the airbags will ensure the safety of passengers across all segments, irrespective of the cost/variant of the vehicle
