From its sunroof feature that gives the impression of elegance and class, the choice of i-AMT transmission that makes it easy to break through the congested traffic of the capital city, the airbags planted on the front and side add extra comfort and safety.
Reliable safety features such as hill-hold control, electronic brake-force distribution (EBD), electric parking brake, and anti-lock braking system (ABS) are only a few of the many safety features embedded in the Cortez 1.8 engine system.
