Yeti features a number of passive safety systems designed to lessen the risk of injury
during an accident:
The use of high strength materials ensures high levels of chassis rigidity, particularly in the passenger compartment.
Front and rear crumple zones to ensure optimal crumpling to absorb as much energy as possible on impact.
Areas within the interior where there is a high probability of body contact during a crash, have been specifically designed with properties to provide maximum protection against injury (including dashboard, door panels and B-pillar).
The front doors have been designed with triple side stiffeners, and the rear doors with one stiffener. These increase rigidity and are capable of absorbing energy in the event of a side impact.
The two other rear seats are fitted with ISOFIX brackets, creating a fixed link to the car chassis-important for ensuring the seat is effectively secured in the event of a collision.
Yeti is fitted with six airbags as standard on base trim, with an additional driver’s knee airbag standard on S, SE and Elegance. Standard airbags on all models are driver and passenger side, and curtain airbags.
