Safety for you and those around you.

 

Fabia always puts you and your family’s safety first. That’s why the Fabia's excellent handling and road holding ensures that the driver maintains control and the ability to negotiate dangerous situations safely.

 

Thanks to the time-tested construction of the chassis, optimally tuned suspension and electro-hydraulic power steering, the Fabia is easy to handle in every situation. Each Fabia comes with ABS, Dual-Rate power assisted brakes and MSR engine brake torque regulator to provide fast and controlled braking. For even more peace of mind, you can opt to have an ASR traction control system or ESP (Electronic Stability Program) fitted to your Fabia. And if you choose TPM (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System), it will alert you if a wheel begins to deflate. 

 

In the unlikely event of a collision, the Fabia has deformation zones in the chassis that are optimally designed and fortified with robust side reinforcements. Driver and front passenger airbags plus side airbags are standard package. ISOFIX child seat mountings are located in the rear outer seats. These fittings secure an ISOFIX prepared child seat to the chassis of the vehicle.

Head Airbags

Head airbags, fitted to the Active & Elegance models, form a “wall” across the entire side of the interior. These airbags protect front and rear passengers from serious injury.

Turning Headlights

Instead of a reflective surface, the projector headlights use a lens to cleverly disperse light – similar to those of a xenon type light. Curve projector headlights (optional) turn from side to side as you spin the steering wheel.

Accident

In the event of an accident the hazard lights and inside lights will automatically come on. The central locking system will unlock all doors, the fuel pump will turn off and the fuel supply from the fuel tank will be cut to reduce the risk of fire.

Protection of Pedestrians

The Fabia respects the EU’s new directives on protecting pedestrians (Phase 1). In case of a collision with a pedestrian, the risk of injury is now far lower due to the adequate distance between the bonnet and fixed parts in the engine area. The adjusted design of the front bumper and the addition of new parts lessen the impact and so they also greatly reduce potential injury to a pedestrian.
