Safety

Six airbags, including seat-mounted side-impact airbags for the front passengers and side curtain-type airbags that protect outboard front and rear occupants, are standard. All-disc antilock brakes include Panic Brake Assist, which can increase the braking force in an emergency situation. All seat belts have pretensioners. GM's StabiliTrak electronic stability system is standard.
