Hyundai Mobis develops panorama sunroof airbag system

Hyundai Mobis has developed what is claimed to be the world’s first panorama sunroof airbag system.

The safety device is designed to reduce injuries by preventing the passenger from being thrown through the sunroof in a rollover accident.

Hyundai Mobis completed road test and reliability tests last month, including heat resistance and vibration resistance tests, and has secured mass production technology.

The panorama sunroof airbag has not previously been applied to mass-produced vehicles, said the company, which began manufacturing airbags in 2002.
