One of the standards in buying a car like the Toyota Premio is safety. This is especially true if you are buying a vehicle not only for yourself but for your family as well. Any parent would like to have the best safety features in their cars for the well-being of their family on the road. Interested buyers of the Premio would be glad to know that not only is the car equipped with the best in safety features but it is also practical, reliable, and fuel-efficient as well. Package Options Before we look into the safety features of the Premio, it’s important to be familiar with the package options or trims first, because some features are not available for all. The current generation of the Premio, released in 2007, was offered in five trims with three engine sizes, ranging from a 1.5-liter to a 2.0-liter. For the practical, money-saving buyer, the EX or the L package is recommended, because it has the most fuel-efficient engine: the 1.5-liter engine, which can make the car run up to 18.2 kilometers just on one liter of gas. The EX and L have two-wheel drive and both packages meet the new fuel economy standards set for 2015. There are also EX and L packages for the 1.8-liter engine, and what’s special about these trims is that these are available with either two- or four-wheel drive. The 1.8-liter engine used valvematic technology which allows for optimum engine performance, thanks to improved combustion efficiency. This trim can run up to 16.4 kilometers per liter. The best package when it comes to power and Toyota Premio safety is the Superior Package and its 2.0-liter engine. This trim is two-wheel drive and runs up to 15.6 kilometers on a single liter of gas. Because of the powerful engine, this package is highly recommended for those who usually drive long distances and those who carry heavy loads, or both. As such, it is perfect for families who go on long trips with lots of luggage and other essentials. Superior Package Safety Toyota went all out to equip the Premio with the best in sedan safety. The top and most advanced safety features for the model can be found in the Superior Package. The first complementing pair of safety features is made up of Traction Control and Vehicle Stability Control. These two work together to make sure that the Premio, no matter how slippery it is, will always have a good grip on the road so it won’t slide off to the side of the road, or unintentionally slip down as it’s climbing up a steep incline. Another Toyota Premio safety team that works together is Brake Assist and Electronic Brake Force Distribution Control. When brake assist senses sudden braking, it automatically decodes it as an emergency situation, prompting Electronic Brake Force Distribution Control to generate a stable, strong, and balanced braking power to the wheels that need it, preventing the car from skidding and spinning. As you can see, the Premio is a good car for your family because it helps prevent accidents on the road. If you’re driving with your family, you’ll have peace of mind knowing that the Toyota Premio’s safety features are with you every step of the way.
