SafetySafety  - 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Review - Reviews - Mitsubishi Lancer

The Lancer comes with seven airbags, including seat-mounted side airbags, side curtain airbags and a knee airbag for the driver — a relative rarity in this segment. ABS is optional on the DE base trim and standard on the ES and GTS.

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has not yet crash tested the new Lancer.
