Freelander 2´s top rated safety features

Other safety features on Freelander 2, voted Best Compact 4x4 by What Car? magazine, include advanced stability and Traction aids, including Electronic Traction Control, Dynamic Stability Control, Hill Descent Control and new Gradient Release Control system which improve driver control on steep hills. Electronic Brakeforce Distribution, Emergency Brake Assist and Cornering Brake Control all help avoid accidents – as does the Command driving position that provides improved visibility, giving the driver a better view of the road ahead.

Secondary safety starts with the strong monocoque body and its inner ´safety cell´. Front and rear crumple zones are designed to help absorb as much energy as possible during an impact. Side-impact protection is further assisted by the ultra-high-strength steel door beams. Front seat belts have dual pre-tensioners, and all Freelander 2 models feature seven airbags.
