Safety
Filled with safety features we hope you'll never use
We’ve made huge investments into making our vehicles the safest on the road. So it’s exciting to be recognized for outstanding safety by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. To earn a Top Safety Pick, our vehicles must excel in areas like high-speed frontal crash tests, side crash tests and rollover tests. In 2012, seven Hyundai models were awarded the Top Safety Pick honor: the all-new Azera, Elantra, Sonata, Genesis, Equus, Tucson and Santa Fe.
Safety features that help you avoid accidents in the first place
Safety features can mean the difference between skidding and stopping in time to avoid an accident. That’s why we include more advanced safety technologies in every Hyundai vehicle. We outfit them with features like anti-lock brakes and electronic brake-force distribution to give you more stopping power. Our Electronic Stability Control and Traction Control Systems help you keep your vehicle from skidding. Our goal is to provide a vehicle that helps you maintain control when it matters most.
We're finding ways to help collisions have less of an impact
At the moment of impact, a Hyundai responds instantly with a host of advanced safety features designed to keep you and your passengers safe. Front and rear crumple zones work together with our reinforced unibody construction to absorb the impact and protect the cabin. Active head restraints move up and forward to protect your head against whiplash. Up to nine airbags deploy and inflate from the dashboard, doors, seats and even the roof to cushion the impact and keep you and your passengers safe
