In all Panamera models, we use
advanced airbag technology in
the form of full-size driver and
front passenger airbags which are
inflated in two stages depending
on the severity and type of acci-
dent (e.g. frontal or offset frontal).
Two sensors in the front end
allow a crash to be detected and
evaluated far sooner and with
considerably greater accuracy. In
less serious accidents, the air-
bags are only partially inflated,
thereby minimising discomfort to
the occupants.
As standard, the knee airbags for
the driver and front passenger
are supplemented by the Porsche
Side Impact Protection System
(POSIP). This comprises two-
chamber side airbags for the
pelvis and thorax regions, curtain
airbags along the entire roof
