BOTH the driver and front-seat passenger are offered the security of "smart" airbags as standard, while front side and curtain airbags and ABS anti-lock braking with electronic brake force distribution are standard only on the VTS, although they can be optioned. Everyone gets height adjustable lap-sash seatbelts with the fronts also having pyrotechnic pretensionsers, force limiters and seatbelt grabbers. Headrests are also standard all-round, with height and tilt adjustment at the front. The facelifted Xsara gains additional reinforcements to side members, windscreen pillars, roof, B-pillars, doors, engine subframe and lower front.
