Dual-chamber Side Airbags

The new generation Volvo SIPS airbags have two separate chambers that are inflated at different pressures in a side impact. One chamber protects the hip area, while the other protects the chest.

The hip chamber is inflated five times the pressure of the chest chamber to help optimize protection.
