Automotive grab handles are considered a safety feature in vehicles. The handle provides support to the passengers while climbing in or out of the vehicle. For instance, while climbing inside a large vehicle, the handle is used to hoist yourself up into the vehicle and while moving out it is used to hold and lower yourself outside of the vehicle. Moreover, it is also used by the passengers to balance themselves while the vehicle is moving through a harsh terrain or at high-speed turnings. These handles are mostly seen above the vehicle door inside the car and are made of hard plastic to withstand passenger weight. Grab handles increase the comfort levels for the passengers and contributes to enhancing the styling of the car. Thus, the car designer emphasizes the look and feel of grab handles along with safety and comfort requirements. If not then getting in or out of the vehicle and no holding support while the vehicle is moving can be extremely dangerous if the grab handles are poorly manufactured, designed, or not attached correctly. Therefore, the automotive grab handle is used to ensure better safety of the passengers.
