Safety
All-disc antilock brakes and dual-stage front airbags are standard. A curtain-type airbag Safety Canopy system enhances occupant protection in side impacts and rollovers. The revised rear park-assist system uses ultrasonic sensors and radar, taking into account both vehicle speed and distance. The newly optional AdvanceTrac system can help control skidding. A tire-pressure monitor will be available later.
