Brakes, Airbags, and Other Safety | ||||
Rear disc brakes. | ||||
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. | ||||
Deploys extended duration side curtain airbags when the vehicle rolls over. Usually included on tall vehicles. Rare on others. | ||||
Airbags contained just above the window level. Except in cars without a rear seat usually cover first and second row. | ||||
Selectively applies the brakes to prevent excessive understeer or oversteer (spinning). | ||||
Two types: a warning light when a tire is low on air and a pressure readout for each tire. | ||||
When a drive wheel slips, it is braked and/or engine power is reduced, restoring traction. | ||||
Cargo Management | ||||
Usually part of an overhead console. | ||||
No crossbars. | ||||
Large storage area beneath the load floor, often compartmentalized. | ||||
Climate Control | ||||
Maintains set temperature in front row. Requires air conditioning and does not include its value. | ||||

Ducts under front seats direct heated air to the second row. | ||||
Time between wipes can be precisely adjusted. | ||||

Exterior | ||||
Protective cladding extending partly onto the doors. | ||||
Requires external spare tire. | ||||
Spare tire mounted to the tailgate. | ||||
Used to connect the vehicle with another, so one of them can tow the other out of the mud. | ||||
