Safety
Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
When braking on wet and slippery roads, any deviation in direction is detected by the Anti-lock brake system (ABS) sensors. The individual Anti-lock brake system (ABS) then activates to keep your wheels from locking up, prevent skidding and maintain directional control.
Seatbelt pre-tensioners
In a collision, a sensor detects the impact and automatically tensions the seatbelts around the pelvis, for additional protection.
Power window adjustment controls
Ergonomically positioned, the power window control switches are metal coated for a better grip.
