Brakes, Airbags, and Other Safety | |||||||
Rear disc brakes. | |||||||
Only listed when pricing a single model because insufficient data for all cars. | |||||||

Alerts driver when approaching the preceding car too quickly. | |||||||
Mandatory, in all cars. | |||||||
Torso-level front row airbags, usually contained in the seats. Many also protect the head, but not as well as side curtain airbags. | |||||||

Can be driven deflated for about 50 miles. Usually harm ride quality. Cars with these often have no spare tire. | |||||||
Uses the brakes to channel torque to the outside wheels and counteract understeer. Similar to stability control, but proactive, and acting to improve cornering performance rather than prevent loss of control. | |||||||
