Specifications
The people want safety standards to be standard.
Every 2010 Jetta comes standard with 40 safety features that make up the Prevent and Preserve Safety System. The features
work in harmony to both help you avoid a crash, and help protect you if a crash is unavoidable. Jetta has proven itself so safe,
in fact, that it was named a 2009 IIHS Top Safety Pick. And we regularly update all of our safety features, because there's
no such thing as being too safe.
- Lower Anchors and
Tethers for CHildren (LATCH)
A standardized child-safety seat system.
- Crash-Optimized Front End
Designed to sacrifice the front of the vehicle
in the event of a serious crash. The engine bay
and structure of the car crumple in a predetermined
way to help keep the integrity
of the cabin intact.
- Airbags
Every Jetta comes with 6 standard airbags
and 2 optional rear airbags.
- Safety Cell Construction and
Anti-Intrusion Side Door Beams
Creates a laser-welded cocoon of safety around
the passengers that is structurally reinforced
in the most important areas.
- 5-Star Side Impact Rating
The highest governmental side
crash safety rating.
- Electronic Differential Lock (EDL)
Wheels that have traction get more power
in a less slip, more grip kind of way.
- Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR) and
Engine Brake Assist (EBA)
Help improve handling and prevent compression-induced
skidding in slippery conditions.
- Dual Front and Front Side Airbags
Can deploy within 5 hundredths
of a second.
- Laser Welding and Uni-body Construction
Jetta is engineered and created using the
highest standards to maintain body rigidity
and safety.
- Safety Belt Pre-Tensioners
In the event of a crash, the safety belts are
automatically tightened in a fraction of a second.
- Side Curtain Protection
Airbags deploy down the roofline from the A-pillar
to the C-pillar, to help reduce head and upper torso
injury in the event of side impact.
