This is what we call a least probable co-incidence in the history of automobiles. Following the accident of recently launched Hyundai Creta, now it is Maruti Suzuki S-cross, which is found crashed and rollover in a similar fashion. The car is yet to hit the Indian roads, but this unfortunate vehicle is already heading towards the service station or may to the junkyard looking at the condition.
The reason for the accident is still unknown, but the latest reports suggests that it was due to driver error. There were no casualties reported, however, the crossover has suffered a massive damage and has toppled several times before landing into the bushes. It seems to be a test-drive vehicle and the entire body of the car has suffered colossal damage.

Whatever may be the reason of the accident, but the car has faced high-speed impact and rolled several times before coming to the rest.
