Occupant Protection
Child Seat Fasteners
Child seat fasteners are attached to the
front passenger seat as well as to the outer
positions of the rear bench seats.
Interior Trim
The collision area at the instrument panel is
optimized at knee height for the driver and
the front passenger.
Corners and sharp edges have been
avoided; paneling and absorber parts
deform in such a way that the risk of injury
is minimized.
Pedestrian Protection
The body contour, the selected
materials for body panels like aluminum
for the hood and plastic for the fenders,
and the space between the hood and the
engine, all provide some measure of
pedestrian protection.
The body structure is designed to deform
strategically and quickly reduce energy
upon impact.
