Honda Announces next-generation Passenger Front Airbag


The Department of Research and Development of Honda America in Ohio, in conjunction with Autoliv, a company for the manufacture of safety components for automobiles (belts, airbags), created a new, sophisticated version of this of our object. The creation of Honda and Autoliv is intended to increase the protection offered to collisions that become sideways.

To do this there has been a completely new design. Usually the airbags consist of a large "compartment" which, if necessary, inflates rapidly in order to protect the passengers. In the new version the apartments are three (two sides and one in the middle), which on the side facing the passenger are joined by a piece of cloth, whose name is sail panel.



The role of the sail panel is to drop the passenger's head there and start slowing down from the central part, while at the same time the sides begin to gather around his head to increase the level of protection. The installation of the new air bags will start in 2020, from Honda models in the United States.
