Seats, Seatbelts and SRS 1 Airbags
Ring-shaped Reinforcement Frame
The Ring-shaped Reinforcement Frame strengthens
the passenger cabin from the roof to the doors, pillars
and floor. This design helps to divert and dissipate
impact energy away from the occupants in a collision.
The frame for the Impreza features a high-tensile steel
design that is strong and rigid, yet light in weight.
Height-adjustable front seatbelts feature pretensioners to hold passengers firmly in place. And the
Impreza features whiplash-reducing front seats and
energy-absorbing head restraints that can help
better protect front occupants from injury during a
rear collision. Front, front seat side and side-curtain
SRS1 airbags are standard on all models. A knee
SRS1 airbag is also standard, which greatly increases
the protection of the lower extremities of the driver
in frontal impacts. A tether and ISO-FIX anchors
facilitate installation of compatible child-safety seats.
