Brakes, Airbags, and Other Safety | ||
Rear disc brakes. | ||
If active, automatically move forward when the vehicle is rear-ended. Note: becoming less common. | ||
Only listed when pricing a single model because insufficient data for all cars. | ||
Automatically pulse the brakes in hard stops to prevent wheels from locking up, making it possible to brake and steer at the same time. | ||
When a panic stop is sensed, fully applies the brakes. | ||
Mandatory, in all cars. | ||
Airbags contained just above the window level. Except in cars without a rear seat usually cover first and second row. | ||
Two types: a warning light when a tire is low on air and a pressure readout for each tire. | ||
Cargo Management | ||
Climate Control | ||
Maintains set temperature in front row. Requires air conditioning and does not include its value. | ||
Filters exterior air before it enters the passenger compartment. No default value because most cars have them, even in cases where they're not in the official list of features. | ||
Wipers automatically turn on and adjust their speed based on input from a rain sensor. | ||
Ducts under front seats direct heated air to the second row. | ||
Exterior | ||
Side skirts and possibly a front air dam and rear apron. | ||
Moldings on the bodysides, to protect against door dings in parking lots. | ||

We haven't given this feature a value because it's hard to tell which cars have it. | ||
Light wide area close in front of the vehicle. | ||
Front row reading lights. | ||
Includes value of manual remote mirrors. | ||
Reports engine speed. | ||
Reports average fuel economy, and perhaps also instantaneous fuel economy, distance to empty, average speed, and other stats. | ||

Provide a brighter, whiter light than halogen headlights. | ||
Seats and Interior Trim | ||
All-weather floormats. | ||
Seat folds to enlarge cargo area. Unless the seat is also removable, it usually folds flat or nearly flat. | ||
Seating surfaces are trimmed in leather; other upholstery tends to be leatherette. | ||
Manually adjustable lower back support. | ||

Lug nuts that can only be removed using a special key. Prevents theft of wheels. |
