For the safety of all, Highlander has set up aluminum alloy auxiliary impact beams to prevent pedestrians from getting involved in the pedestrian foam equipped with the main impact beam and auxiliary impact beams.
Aviation seat safety design, instantaneous support can reach 3 times of its own weight, mailbox protects the spine, comfortable, really to provide users with more peace of mind, high rigidity headrest design is intimate in place, the maximum support of the head during installation, bringing a child seat level "safe cockpit".
