Safety

Eight airbags are standard, with two more optional. Antilock brakes and an electronic stability system are standard. Options include adaptive cruise control with forward collision warning, lane departure and blind spot warning systems, and adaptive headlights. Optional radar-based automatic braking can stop the ATS in Drive or Reverse at low speeds if it detects an obstruction.
