Protective effect
The front airbags supplement the three-
point safety belts by providing additional 
protection for the front-seat occupants 
in the event of a severe frontal collision 
on which the protection afforded by the 
belts alone may no longer be sufficient. 
The head and side airbags help provide 
protection in the event of a side impact. 
Each of the side airbags is designed to 
help support the upper body.
