Passive Safety
Passive Safety Systems, on the other hand, protect the occupants of a vehicle and other road users if a crash occurs. They do this by reducing the impact of an accident or the level of injury
PASSIVE SAFETY SYSTEMS
Airbags
Airbags are supplemental protection and are designed to work best in combination with seat belts. Both frontal and side-impact air bags are generally designed to deploy in moderate to severe crashes
Body Structure
The front structure consists of deformation zones of different grades of steel, each one with a certain role in a collision. The structure is designed to help providing increased protection in a frontal collision
Seat Belts
Seatbelts keep passengers correctly positioned during an accident or sudden stop, thereby reducing the impact of the vehicle interior on the body and preventing people from being ejected
Deformation Zones
Deformation zones take out the kinetic energy of a crash in a controlled way. This is done through specifically designed areas of the vehicle that deform and crumple during an crash to absorb the impact
Active Head Restraints
Active Head Restraints is a system that comes into action only in a rear-end crash. The inertia caused by an impact from the rear presses the upper body into the back of the seat
Pedestrian Protection System
Pedestrian Protection System refers to an essential safety feature that helps in warning the driver for crossing pedestrian and cyclists or the system which is automatically assisting the driver
