When radar detects an impeding side impact, a chamber in the seat bolster rapidly inflates to move the occupant away from the door. | ||||||||
Only listed when pricing a single model because insufficient data for all cars. | ||||||||

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. | ||||||||
