Making your next new vehicle a Mini lets you ride with the most advanced car safety features that will help keep you and your passengers safe. Here are some of the features that the vehicles you’ll find at your local Mini dealership come equipped with. Each of them enhances your own safe driving habits to protect you and everyone else on board throughout the course of your travels.

6 Impressive Car Safety Features in Vehicles at Your Mini Dealership

1. Dynamic Stability Control

No matter how careful you are on the road, everybody could benefit from having an extra helping hand keeping you safe. That’s exactly what you get from every new Mini’s dynamic stability control system. Selective brake pressure acts automatically to help keep you in full control of the vehicle at all times.

2. Adaptive Cruise Control

Mini designed their vehicles to make highway driving a whole lot easier, utilizing the on-board camera to help maintain a consistent amount of separation between your vehicle and other drivers. This ensures that you always have time to react if somebody stops short, helping to reduce the risk of a collision.

3. Head-Up Display

One essential part of staying safe on the road is maintaining constant focus on the road. Glancing away even for a second to check on things like your speed limit or fuel level can take your focus away at a crucial moment. This system mitigates that risk by projecting much of the vehicle-critical data you need right onto the lower portion of your dashboard so it is easily accessible.

4. Ultra-Rigid Body Construction

While a number of the features in your Mini will help you prevent an accident from occurring in the first place, you’ll also have the protection you need in the worst-case scenario. The frame of the vehicle is built to disperse force to keep everyone on board safe. Your vehicle also features a rollover protection bar that automatically deploys to keep everyone on board safe.

5. Smart Airbags

You’ll be surrounded by safety when you’re on board a Mini, with up to eight different airbags located throughout the vehicle. Ceiling-mounted, side-impact, side-curtain, and knee airbags help to minimize the impact that anyone on board feels if a serious collision occurs. In more extreme impacts, they’ll also stay inflated longer to keep everyone protected from broken glass.

6. Crash Sensor System

In the event of an accident, your Mini is ready to step in to make a stressful situation a little easier for you and a whole lot safer. Your doors will automatically be unlocked to allow for quick evacuation of the vehicle, and both the interior and exterior hazard lights will automatically engage. If the airbags also deployed, the fuel pump will be disabled to ensure maximum safety.
