Acoustic comfort is guaranteed by a reduction of engine vibrations to the cockpit and the use of soundproofing materials to reduce noise on board.
Safety is assured by Freemont 6 airbags, anti-lock brakes (ABS) with Brake Assist, Electronic Stability Program (ESP) and hill-holder and Electronic Rollover Mitigation (ERM) as standard equipment in all vehicles. And do not forget the booster and the cruise control baby said before, is standard on all trim levels, the children are seated properly, and allows full control of speed.

At this point, "Park Assist" can help, is activated whenever the vehicle is recovered. This system consists of four ultrasonic sensors, placed in the rear molding, which act as intermediaries, and pulse Smart receptors. The pulses are released when the reverse gear is selected, and when they meet an obstacle, which will be reflected as an echo and received by the sensors. At this point, the input signal is converted into a digital signal and sent to the electronic control unit, which activates a visual display of the instrument gauge cluster.

Passive safety

If power is low enough to meet the situation, the second phase of publication has been delayed in order to eliminate, if it crashes, the system activates the pyrotechnic material.

The front passenger air bag is also equipped with a new "active valve" feature, which adjusts the airbag inflation to reduce accidents. Each side air bags, a small opening in the hole, such as airbags and the latest active vent, which is used by this innovative feature. Active ventilation holes in the collision, in order to inflate the air bag completely, to ensure adequate protection of an adult-sized passenger wearing a seat belt.
