Increasing number of safety devices and front side air bags
being installed as standard equipment in Japanese market
Greater number of ESCs becoming standard equipment;
with pre-crash systems becoming more widely available on new 2009 vehicle models
Among safety devices being installed on passenger cars marketed in Japan by Japanese automobile manufacturers between January and July 2009, we noted that the percentage of vehicles coming with factory-installed front side airbags and curtain airbags as standard equipment had increased to almost 18% according to data from JATO Dynamics. As of 2007, the percentage for these airbags was under 7%. The percentage in 2009 for frontal active restraints climbed to 25.5% from 20.2% in 2007.
In July 2007, Toyota announced that it would install front side airbags and active head restraints as standard equipment in new cars in the future. The notable increase in these devices becoming factory-installed, standard equipment is being driven by Toyota's initiative.
The percentage of accident-prevention safety equipment being installed as standard equipment is currently 87% for ABSs, 85% for EBDs (Electronic brake distribution) systems, and 64% for brake assist systems. The standard installation rate of ESC (Electronic Stability Control) systems remains low at 15%, in spite of the fact they have been recognized as effective in stabilizing vehicles while driving, according to the New Car Assessment Programs conducted in Europe and the USA. However, the percentage being installed as standard equipment in 2007 was only 9%.
In the following, we report on various safety features being installed among all new passenger cars sold in Japan by Japanese automobile manufacturers between January and October 2009. In addition, we also provide installation rates of major safety systems being installed as either standard or optional equipment in passenger cars sold by Japanese auto manufacturers in the Japanese market, starting from 2005 up to the January-July period in 2009. The information is based on data provided by JATO Dynamics.
Trend in the percentage of safety devices being installed as standard equipment in Japan

| (Note) | The percentages are for devices being installed as standard equipment in vehicles sold by Japanese automobile manufacturers in the Japanese market. The data is from JATO Dynamics. Figures for 2009 are the actual results for the January through July 2009 period. |
Side airbags, active head restraints, and ESC systems come as standard equipment in new vehicles launched in 2009
A notable increase can be seen in the number of collision safety equipment such as front side airbags, curtain shield airbags, and front active head restraints (or neck injury reduction seats) being installed as standard equipment in new cars launched in Japan by Japanese auto manufacturers between January and October 2009. However, we need to add that more of these cars are the manufacturers' higher end models. In addition, there are a quite a few number of vehicles that are available with pre-crash safety systems.
ESC (Electronic Stability Control) systems, which until now have not been installed as standard equipment in large numbers in Japan, are also starting to emerge as standard equipment, too. (What we refer to here as "ESC" systems are referred by different names depending on manufacturer.)
Collision-safety systems that are used in new passenger cars sold in Japan by Japanese auto manufacturers in 2009
|
"New cars" refer to both existing vehicle models that underwent full model changes and also new vehicle models launched for the first time. The exceptions were vehicles produced on an OEM basis and derivatives. The data is based on press releases announced by the individual manufacturers and on information available on their respective online catalogues as of late October 2009. |

The standard installation rate of front side airbags and curtain airbags increases to 18%
The percentage of cars sold in Japan that come with front-mounted side airbags as standard equipment, that protect the chest and the head in lateral collisions, grew significantly to 18.1%, when compared with the 6.8% in 2007. And the percentage of cars with curtain airbags for two rows coming as standard equipment increased to 13.5%. In 2008, the combined percentage of all curtain airbags, including curtain airbags for three rows and front curtain airbags installed as standard equipment, was 17.6% compared to 6.4% in 2007.
The percentage of front active head restraints installed as standard equipment reached 25.5%. These restraints are designed to reduce neck injuries in collisions. On the other hand, there has not been any notable improvement in the percentage of safety equipment such as seat belts for use in rear middle seats and third-row seats being installed as standard equipment.
Standard installation rate of electronic brake systems grows: 85% of EBDs and 64% of brake assist systems come as standard equipment
The standard installation rate of electronic brake distribution (EBD) systems was 84.7% and that for brake assist systems was 64.4%. However, the percentage of vehicles sold in Japan with Electronic Stability Control (ESC) as standard equipment was just 15.3%. The percentage was 13.6% when it came to ESC being installed as optional equipment. On the other hand, Japanese brand cars sold in the USA and Europe have higher percentages of installation rates of ESC: 63.9% and 54.5% in the US and Europe, respectively.
When it comes to advanced, high-tech, pre-crash systems such as collision warning systems, brake assist systems with preview, and distance sensor cruise control systems, we found that the percentage of vehicles coming equipped with these as standard equipment was less than 1% for each system; and the combined percentage of vehicles coming with these as standard and optional equipment was less than 5.0%.

Front side airbags are being installed in 43% of Toyota vehicles and 100% of Lexus vehicle as standard equipment
The percentage of vehicles in which front side airbags are being installed as standard equipment significantly varies by make. For example, the percentage for Toyota was 43.1% in 2008 and 15.5% in 2007. It was 100% for Lexus-brand vehicles in 2008 but only 2.2% for Honda, 8.3% for Nissan, 4.2% for Mazda, 0.6% for Mitsubishi Motors, 11.7% for Suzuki, 0.0% for Daihatsu, and 26.3% for Fuji Heavy Industries. In July 2007, Toyota announced that it would install front side airbags as standard equipment in new cars in the future.
The average percentage of vehicles being installed with front side airbags as optional equipment is 33.5%. When both standard and optional installation rates are combined, the percentages are as follows: 91.9% for Toyota, 50.3% for Honda, 16.4% for Nissan, 69.2% for Mazda, 28.6% for Mitsubishi Motors, 13.4% for Suzuki, 35.6% for Daihatsu, and 56.8% for Fuji Heavy Industries.
The percentage of vehicles with curtain airbags for two rows as standard equipment is 13.5%. Looking at the percentages of vehicles with front side airbags installed as standard equipment, we find both Toyota (31.9%) and Lexus (93.2%) far ahead of the others. In third was Fuji Heavy Industries at 26.3%.
Active head restraints as standard equipment are equipped on 76% of Nissan vehicles, 48% of Lexus, and 42% of Fuji Heavy Industries
Active head restraints on average are being installed on 25.5% of vehicles as standard equipment. However, the percentage varies greatly from maker to maker, with Nissan at 75.9% (74.8% in 2007) and Lexus at 48.2% (30.0% in 2007). The two companies are ahead of the others. The percentage for Fuji was 42.0% in 2008 (53.1% in 2007). (Fuji Heavy Industries installed a neck injury reduction seat in the new Legacy.) The percentage for Toyota is 31.4% (9.2% in 2007). (In July 2007, Toyota announced that it would also install active head restraints in new models in the future.)

Percentage of vehicles installed with brake assist systems as standard equipment varies little by make
Except for Lexus, which stands out with a high 98.6% installation rate; and Mitsubishi Motors at a low of 43.5%, the overall rate of vehicles equipped with brake assist systems as standard equipment averages between 60-70%, with little variance by manufacturing group. We found that EBD systems are equipped as standard equipment on 84.7% of vehicles. At the top (100.0%) was Lexus, followed by Toyota at 98.9%, Honda at 98.3%, Mazda at 92.2%, Nissan at 87.2% and Fuji at 76.7%.
The percentages of ESC systems equipped as standard equipment by make are as follows: 100% for Lexus, 31.8% for Fuji Heavy Industries, 30.1% for Toyota, and 21.7% for Mitsubishi Motors. When the percentage of vehicles equipped with ESC systems as either standard equipment or optional equipment are combined by make, the average rate still doesn't go over 50%, except for Toyota that ended up at 51.6%. The percentage was 36.2% for Honda and 35.6% for Fuji Heavy Industries.
