Renault benefits from a unique pool of expertise when it comes to safety, and the
brand continues to claim a real edge over the majority of its rivals.
With a strategy focusing on four main areas, namely accident prevention, corrective
action, occupant protection and road safety awareness, Renault is constantly innovating
to provide its customers with a range of solutions that respond to the realities
of everyday motoring.
Since side impacts account for one-third of fatal accidents, Renault has decided
to equip its vehicles with twin side-impact sensors and thorax/groin airbags.
Given
that one-fifth of deaths on the road result from head-on collisions: Renault vehicles
are engineered to ensure that occupants benefit from the best protection possible
from this sort of impact, whatever the size of vehicles involved.
Renault's approach
to safety is based on detailed analysis of real-life accidents with a view to delivering
products that are adapted to the realities of motoring. The priority is accordingly
given to the most effective technologies when it comes to preventing accident risks,
taking corrective action in unexpected situations and protecting occupants should
a collision occur.
