Yeti features and benefits
Active safety
Yeti features a range of active safety systems enabling the driver to control the car with ease and is designed to help prevent crashes.
ESP – ESP features a long list of electronic
systems designed to stabilise the vehicle in
critical handling situations. (includes ABS,
EBD, EBC, ASR, EDL, HBA, DSR, ESBS -
standard on all 4x4 models, optional on all
other models) (see glossary for further
details).
Effective lighting – follows the golden rule
of ‘see and be seen’. Yeti has an array of
lights designed for safety; bi-xenons with
corner lighting (standard on Elegance);
third rear brake light; front fog lights;
cornering fog lights (standard on Elegance);
integrated indicators in door mirror
housings (much easier to see for other
road users); and warning reflectors/lights
on all doors (when open).
Tyre pressure monitor – will highlight any
loss in pressure of the tyres to the driver. A
decrease in pressure could radically change
the car’s behaviour and drivability,
potentially causing an accident.
Disc brakes on all four wheels – ensures
maximum braking power, providing the car
with the greatest opportunity to stop safely
in the event of an emergency.
Activation of warning lights during
heavy braking – lets the car behind know
of a possible hazard.
Speed dependent electromechanical
power steering – the variable assist power
steering provides the driver with a lighter
steering feel when parking and driving at
low speeds, whilst providing more
feedback and resistance when driving at
higher speeds. This is critical for providing
easy manoeuvrability and driving in a safer
manner.
Increased visibility of surroundings
– Yeti provides the driver with an increased
view of the surroundings by using a slightly
raised seating position and large window
areas. This increases the safety of the driver
and occupants by providing a clearer view.
Allowing the driver more time to avoid any
potential obstructions, vehicles and
pedestrians.
