COMMITTED TO YOUR SAFETY.
Rio's active safety systems are engineered to help you avoid accidents, and its passive systems are designed to help minimize injuries when they are unavoidable. This means that front to back and top to bottom, every Rio is engineered to help ensure everyone's well-being.


ADVANCED AIRBAG SYSTEM.
Six airbags placed throughout the cabin are designed to help protect occupants. The advanced front airbag system monitors the severity of an impact, the presence of a front passenger and seat-belt use, and then controls airbag inflation accordingly¹.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKES
An Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) helps give you better steering control during hard or sudden braking, especially on wet or slippery road surfaces.

CHILD-SEAT LATCH SYSTEM
A LATCH system makes it easy and convenient to secure child seats.

TIRE-PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM
The monitoring system includes air pressure sensors located at each wheel. If a tire reaches a specified low air pressure, a warning light alerts you².

REINFORCED BODY DESIGN
Doors are reinforced with steel beams to absorb impact energy and deflect side-impact force. Both the A and B pillars are reinforced to help minimize damage.

¹ For maximum protection, always wear your seat belt.
² Even with the Tire-Pressure Monitoring System, always check your tire pressure on a regular basis.
