Electronic Stability Control (ESC) helps drivers to avoid crashes by reducing the danger of skidding, or losing control as a result of over-steering. Australian research shows that ESC reduces the risk of Single car crashes by 25% find out more ...

Curtain airbags are designed to protect the driver's and front seat passenger's heads in a side impact crash.The curtain airbag activates instantaneously, deploying from the top of the door rails above the side window. They form a cushion between the driver or passenger and the window and stay in place if the car rolls over to protect their head.

Also known as Adaptive Cruise Control, Active Cruise Control detects the distance and speed of the preceding vehicle and maintains an appropriate following distance.

Traction Control systems optimise grip and stability of the car on the road during acceleration by measuring wheel rotation. It stops wheel spin by reducing engine power or temporarily applying the brakes to that wheel, allowing the car to accelerate smoothly, even on slippery surfaces. Limited slip differentials also help provide a more even distribution of traction forces when the car is on a slippery surface.

ABS (Antilock Braking System)reduces the risk of tyres skidding under heavy braking and allows the driver to maintain steering control of the car. ABS only operates under heavy braking or on slippery surfaces.

Adjustable steering columns allows for steering wheel heights to be adjusted to the driver’s preference.

Fog lamps have a low, flat, fan shaped beam designed to improve the driver’s ability to view the road. Fog lamps must only be used in low visibility conditions such as fog or snow.

Drivers’ airbags or frontal airbags typically deploy from the steering wheel to protect the driver from striking other parts of the car in a frontal crash. Drivers’ airbags are designed to be used in conjunction with seatbelts and do not offer protection in the event of a side impact crash.

Pretensioners tighten and reduce slack in seat belts to protect occupants from rapidly moving forward in the event of a crash.

3 point seat belts are belts that goes over the waist (lap) and the shoulder (sash) of the occupant. 3 point seat belts provides better protection than 2 point seat belts (lap belt only).
