2009 Renault Symbol Handling and Protection
The handling of New Renault Symbol is predictable in all situations, even on wet roads. The choice of the same running gear as Clio II, a front track dimension of 1.41m and a wheelbase of 2.47m ensure pleasant, surefooted and surprise-free stability and handling. Its roadholding has been engineered with two priorities in mind: safety and comfort. The MacPherson-type front suspension has been calibrated to deliver optimal handling and ride comfort. It employs hydraulic dampers and coil springs, and comes with an anti-roll bar to minimize body-roll. New Renault Symbol benefits from Renault’s extensive expertise in the realm of safety. To guarantee optimal protection for all occupants, this new three-box model features a long list of safety-enhancing equipments, not the least of which is the use of high elastic limit steel which ensures a strongly resistant cabin while at the same time limiting the latter’s deformation, notably in the case of frontal impact. The way its reinforced structure crumples under impact is pre-programmed. The subframe and front bumper beam have been optimized. In the case of side impact, occupants are protected by anti-intrusion strengthening of the front and rear doors. The New Renault Symbol comes as standard with a driver’s side airbag, to which it is possible to add a front passenger airbag and two lateral thorax airbags (depending on version) for further protection from side impact.
