6 SRS airbag package as standard
The rules of the safety game are changing as well. Standard in every Aurion is a package of 6 SRS airbags that includes 2-stage front occupant airbags which deploy in accordance with crash severity in the event of frontal impact. Front seat mounted side airbags help reduce the likelihood of injury to front seat occupants' torsos during side collisions. Side curtain shield airbags help protect the chance of injury to the heads of the front and rear seat outer occupants in the event of a side impact.
Intelligent AB-i braking system
By integrating braking technologies, Active Braking with intelligence (AB-i) helps optimise braking performance, particularly in emergencies. In an emergency situation Brake Assist (BA) senses a quick, hard push on the brake pedal and automatically responds. It then applies extra hydraulic pressure and, if necessary, Anti-skid Braking (ABS) to minimise the vehicle's stopping distance. Meanwhile, Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) instinctively adjusts for tyre load conditions and any extra weight carried and directs brake-force to the wheels that need it most.
Whiplash Injury Lessening (WIL) front seat design
To alleviate the impact to the neck area in the event of a rear end collision, the new front seat is designed to suppress the relative movement between the head and body.
Structural passive safety features
- A collapsible steering column reduces the likelihood of injury to the driver in a frontal collision.
- Front Emergency Locking Retractor seatbelts have pre-tensioners and force limiters for advanced collision restraint characteristics
- Greater use of high strength steel offers greater structural rigidity.
- Cross section roof reinforcements help resist side impact loads.
- For pedestrian safety, the underbonnet supporting structure and impact absorbing fender brackets help minimize collision impact.
Active safety technology
The Rear Reversing Camera in Presara shows the driver what's immediately behind whenever reverse is selected*.
* The Rear Reversing Camera does not provide a comprehensive view of the entire rear area of vehicle and should only be used as an aid for viewing when reversing.
