Saturn Spaceframe

* Optional Head Curtain Air Bags are designed to help reduce the risk of head and neck injuries for front seat occupants on the near side of certain side-impact collisions. Always use seatbelts and proper child restraints even with air bags. See Owner's Manual for more safety information.

** Always use safety belts and proper child restraints, even with Reduced Force Air Bags. Children are safer when properly secured in a rear seat. For more Saturn safety information, see the Owner's Manual.


	The list of available Saturn safety features gets longer every year. Now you can add optional Head Curtain Air Bags.


	Head curtain air bags drop like inflated curtains on both sides of the passenger compartment to protect against head injuries in a side collision.


	Saturn's Reduced Force Air Bags are designed to work with safety belts and child restraints to protect passengers during moderate to severe frontal collisions.


	Anti-lock braking helps prevent wheel lock-up and allows the driver to maintain control of the vehicle.


	Traction Control automatically adjusts wheel spin to synchronize the driving wheels' speed.


	A rigid steel structure with reinforced steel door beams, cross bracing and padding to fight impact.


	Every Saturn has "crumple zones," areas specially designed to crumple upon impact, thereby helping to absorb and dissipate the force of front or rear end crashes.


	Some child-restraint designs require a place to anchor the strap to the vehicle. Saturn has installed top tether anchors in all its models.


	All Saturn cars have daytime running lamps that are activated when the car's ignition is on. They help other drivers see a Saturn easily, and can reduce the likelihood of an accident.


	With our optional remote key fob, you can lock and unlock your car doors and trunk or activate a panic alarm from up to 30 feet away. An anti-lockout feature makes it virtually impossible to lock the keys in your car when they're left in the ignition.
