Head airbag

The head airbag prevents direct contact of the head against the side structure or an obstacle entering the vehicle. The head airbag stretches continuously at head height from the A-pillar to the C-pillar. The shape and stability of the head airbag are retained for several seconds after deployment. The head airbag deflates more slowly than the front and side airbags. thus providing longer protection for the head in lateral rollover situations. A head airbag is installed on the driver's and on the passenger's side.
