New vehicles loaded with high-tech crash-prevention cameras, sensors and microprocessors are pushing insurance costs higher, as the safety features, such as advanced driver assistance systems, can cost over five times more to repair than conventional parts. Telematics data reveals the most safely driven low-cost cars Telematics specialist Wunelli has found that the Kia Picanto, the Citroen C3 and the Fiat Panda are the three most safely driven low-cost cars, based on its analysis of data taken from drivers’ scores and insurance claims. Data captured from the three models recorded better driving behaviour and a lower rate of accidents, and covered use of handheld phones, music systems, texting and music.
