Adjustable pedals are available either as part of a package or with certain trims making it easier for drivers to find a comfortable seating position while maintaining a safe distance from the steering wheel. The front seatbelts have adjustable upper anchors for getting a more comfortable and safer shoulder belt fit as well as pretensioners to reduce belt slack in the event of a crash.
