ESC and ABS
Whether you’re on the open road or off the beaten path, ESC
with ABS helps to keep the vehicle traveling in its intended
direction by moderating brake pressure at all four wheels to
help maintain traction, minimize skids and optimize control.
Six standard airbags
With six standard airbags, including front-impact and thorax
side airbags for both driver and front passenger, and available
rear-passenger thorax side airbags, you’ll feel practically sur-
rounded.

And that’s a good thing.
Safety
Working to spread a “bend,
don’t break” philosophy.
Dramatization
2
1 Airbags are supplemental restraints only and will not deploy in all crash circumstances. Always use safety belts and seat children only in the rear, using restraint systems appro-
priate for their size and age. 2 This is a dramatization and does not depict what will happen in a collision. All bags will not infl ate simultaneously in real-world collisions, and, if
multiple bags do deploy, they will be in various stages of infl ating/defl ating and will never all be infl ated at the same time.

Knautschzone
may be an ugly word, but it’s a beautiful
technology. German for “crumple zone,” this ingenious
feature helps dissipate the energy from a collision by
spreading the impact forces around the passenger cell
and away from its occupants. In doing so, it also slows
the vehicle’s deceleration rate, which helps to further
lessen the force of impact.

Tailor-made blanks
Developed to make the best possible use
of the body’s potential, tailor-made blanks
are the result of a special manufacturing
process that can help strengthen the up-
per zone of a B-pillar while mitigating the
impact in the lower zone in the event of a
side collision.
A little give requires a lot of strength.
We decided that, regardless of size, strong should be a more fl exible concept. High-strength steel helps
add a measure of security while enhancing overall handling and performance. The six standard airbags

feature technology that is designed to deploy airbags based on seat position, while specially constructed
crumple zones give way upon impact to help mitigate potential injury in a collision. All of this, combined
with the rigidity of laser seam-welded joints that enhance the strength of every Audi we make, helps
diminish the impact of an unavoidable event.
