1No system, no matter how sophisticated, can repeal the laws of physics or overcome careless driving actions. Please always wear your seat belt. 2 Stated rates of acceleration are based upon manufacturer’s track results and may vary depending
upon model, environmental and road surface conditions, driving style, elevation and vehicle load. 3 2003 EPA estimated fuel economy. Compare the estimated mpg to the estimated mpg of other vehicles. You may get different mileage depending on
how fast you drive, weather conditions and trip length. 2004 figures unavailable at time of publication. See your dealer. 4 Your actual highway mileage will probably be less than the highway estimate. 2003 figures shown. 2004 figures unavailable at
