Maruti Suzuki Wagon R Safety Rating: A Call for Enhanced Measures

 

Introduction to Safety

The Maruti Suzuki Wagon R, a popular choice among Indian consumers, has faced rigorous scrutiny in the latest Global NCAP crash tests. With the results in, it’s clear that while the Wagon R excels in utility, there’s a significant need for improvements in safety.

 

The Ratings Explained

In the recent evaluations, the Wagon R scored a 1-star rating for adult occupant protection with a score of 19.69 out of 34, and a concerning 0-star rating for child occupant protection with a score of 3.40 out of 49. These scores reflect the urgent need for Maruti Suzuki to bolster the safety of one of its bestsellers.

 

Safety Enhancements and Structural Integrity

The Wagon R’s transition to the ‘Heartect’ platform was expected to enhance safety; however, the test results indicate that more rigorous measures are needed. The vehicle’s structural integrity has been deemed ‘Unstable,’ with the footwell area also rated as unstable, signaling the necessity for more robust safety features.

 

Safety Assist Technologies

- Seat Belt Pre-Tensioner & Force Limiters: Reduce the impact of collisions by tightening the seatbelts just before an impact.

- Day/Night IRVM: Allows the driver to adjust the rear-view mirror’s reflectance for better visibility and reduced glare.

Maruti Suzuki Wagon R 

The Maruti Suzuki Wagon R is one of India’s most successful hatchbacks. It has consistently sold high volumes over the last few years and generations. The WagonR now has the HEARTECT platform and still feels like a more compelling package at its price point. 

 

The third-generation Wagon R keeps its signature tall-boy look and dimensions although it looks more proportioned now. The new car is longer and wider now, with a bigger wheelbase, while being lighter than before as well. The Wagon R feels more stylish now, with the rounded-off design for its nose and the chunkier elements including the arrow headlamps and the sporty touches all around. The shoulder line is chiselled, and the wheel arches get plenty of definition alongside. The black plaque to the tailgate from the C pillar looks nice, with the impression of a floating roof and the taillights are big and attractive too. The door handles are not as pleasing, while alloy wheels are only offered as accessories. The bonnet shut line should have been tighter, although the company has reportedly claimed that it is deliberate, to prevent damages to the upper part of the grille if the bonnet is slammed. 

Getting in and out of the car is easy and the cabin is airy with big windows. The cabin looks nice with its dual-tone theme in beige and black. The new instrument console (with a digital tachometer for higher trims) also adds to the overall cabin ambiance. The steering wheel comes from the Ignis and feels better to use. The soft-touch feeling is still absent, although the dashboard has a good textured feel to it. Finishing is better for the door pads although the dashboard could have been better proportioned. The central console’s angle may be a little problem for drivers. The vents and other components look slightly awkward. The new front seats are bigger and the fixed front headrests do limit front visibility for those at the back. The cabin feels wider with more legroom and headroom. Adjustable rear headrests could have been included in the cabin as well. Boot space has gone up to 341 litres, while there is a 60:40 split ratio for the seats too. There is a bigger glovebox with chunky front door pockets and rear door ones as well. The cubby hole over the gear lever feels unnecessary. A dedicated mobile placement slot will be required as well. 

The Wagon R comes with the SmartPlay Studio infotainment unit of 7 inches. There is superior touch response and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are also included. It can deploy the internet connectivity of a paired device for online music streaming, news, weather, and other updates. You can also control audio through the Neat smartphone app. There are also steering-mounted controls for the Wagon R’s infotainment unit. 

 

Fuel TypeCapacity Power Torque 
Petrol1197 cc 88.50 BHP113 Nm 
Petrol998 cc 65.71 BHP89 Nm 

The 1.2-litre engine is smooth and already does duty in the Baleno, Ignis, Dzire, and Swift. It is a sportier and peppy engine to drive while the lightweight nature of the car automatically enhances overall performance. The new 1.2-litre engine feels agile and responsive, picking up speed smoothly and making for great city cruising as well. The car feels lively with more pulling powers, while the engine appreciates higher revs throughout the power band. The 1.2-litre engine is quicker than rivals like the Santro, Tiago, and the Celerio as well. The grip of the wheels is pretty good as well. Yet, the top power band zones between 5-6,500 RPM make the WagonR quite noisy. Sound insulation is not very good for the Wagon R as well. The manual gearbox is also not the best, although it feels easy and light mostly. The AMT version is the better one of the lot although it is not as smooth as you would otherwise desire. Higher gears ensure better performance overall, while the gearbox does not feel compromised in any manner. The handbrake should be carefully used while doing hill starts. The car may roll back before the engagement of the gearbox.

Pros

  • Numerous Transmission Options
  • Spacious
  • Best-Seller

Cons

  • Polarising Design
  • Driving Dynamics
  • High Nvh Level

Verdict

Maruti Suzuki Wagon R offers more in comparison to the price it charges. That is an affordable premium hatchback model available in the market that a middle-class family can also go for. With the tall boy design and the performance delivered along with the technologies used, and the safety measures are taken, one can say that the Wagon R is worth its cost. It now offers better looks, well-appointed cabin, better features, and overall, a better portfolio of safety equipment.
