Airbag Count: Up to 8 Airbags
The D-Max was a pioneer in the pickup segment by offering a center airbag between the front seats to prevent occupant-to-occupant collision. It also features dual front, side, curtain, and a driver's knee airbag.
ABS with EBD: Equipped
The braking system is managed by a high-tech ABS and EBD suite, which is particularly important for pickups that experience massive shifts in weight distribution between empty and fully loaded states.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC): Equipped
Standard across all models, the ESC system includes Traction Control and Trailer Sway Control (TSC). TSC can detect trailer oscillations and apply individual brakes to the truck to stabilize the entire rig.
Hill Start Assist: Equipped
Hill Start Assist (HSA) and Hill Descent Control (HDC) are standard. HDC is particularly useful in off-road conditions, allowing the vehicle to crawl down steep, slippery slopes at a controlled speed without driver brake input.
ISOFIX: Equipped
Double Cab models are fitted with two ISOFIX child seat anchor points and top-tether points, reflecting the vehicle's dual-use role as a family weekend adventurer.
NCAP Safety Rating: 5-Star (ANCAP)
The D-Max holds a 5-star ANCAP rating, scoring highly in adult and child occupant protection. This rating is largely due to the IDAS camera-based safety system which provides pre-collision braking and lane-keep assist.
