Unlock and lock the car using buttons on the keyfob. | |
Brakes, Airbags, and Other Safety | |
Rear disc brakes. | |
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. | |
Only listed if not standard on all trims. No value because no way to compare across models. | |
Mandatory, in all cars. | |
Beeps signal distance to object behind vehicle. Parking aid. | |
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. | |
