        The MPV Triber is the only car by Renault that was able to make it to this list. A decent rating.

        Maruti is known for a lot of things but not for cars that are safe. So it might come as a surprise to see one of its car in a list of safest cars. Well, credit, where it’s due the Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza, is one of the safest cars you can get for under 15 lakhs. Good rating in adult occupancy but quite a bad performance in the child safety department puts it at the bottom of this list. It does however offer decent safety features such as dual airbags, hill hold assist ABS and ISOFIX anchorage.
