One of the key safety features of the Colorado is its advanced airbag system, which includes driver and front passenger airbags, seat-mounted side-impact airbags for the driver and front passenger, and head-curtain airbags for front and rear outboard seating positions.

These features work together to help prevent accidents and keep drivers and passengers safe on the road.
