Submarining

Submarining

The term 'submarining' means that in the event of a head-on collision the occupant's body is pushed deep into the seat cushion and slips beneath the lap belt. To counter this, all Volkswagen seats feature a so-called anti-submarining ramp which helps minimise the risk of injury in such accidents.
