<strong>Porsche</strong> Side Impact Protection<br />

(POSIP) System<br />

Both new <strong>Boxster</strong> models are equipped<br />

as standard with the <strong>Porsche</strong> Side<br />

Impact Protection (POSIP) system. It is<br />

comprised of two side airbags on each<br />

side. An integral thorax airbag is located<br />

in the outer side bolster of each seat,<br />

while the door panels each contain an<br />

upward-inflating head airbag. Each thorax<br />

airbag has a volume of 0.35 cubic feet,<br />

and each head airbag 0.52 cubic feet,<br />

ensuring excellent protection in the event<br />

of a side impact, even with the top down.<br />

POSIP additionally includes steel sideimpact<br />

protection elements in the doors.<br />
