In brief
Vauxhall Full-size airbag system
The Vauxhall Full-size airbag system
comprises several individual systems.
Front airbag system 3
Front airbag system 3
The front airbag system will be triggered in
the event of a serious accident involving a
frontal impact and forms safety cushions
for the driver and front passenger. The
forward movement of the driver and front
passenger is checked and the risk of
injuries to the upper body and head
thereby substantially reduced.
Side airbag system 3
The side airbag system triggers when a
side-on collision occurs and provides a
safety barrier for the driver and/or
passenger in the respective front door
area. This reduces the risk of injury to the
upper body considerably in the event of a
side-impact.
