G-Force Control Technology (G-CON) is at the core of the safety-focused design on the Insight.
It might sound like a superhero command center (and you just may come to think of it that way) but it's really the name for the way Honda engineers optimize each part of the aluminum body and frame to best absorb impact. Front and rear crush zones, side-impact door beams, and a rigid, box-sectioned cabin floor also work together to help protect you, while you are helping to protect the environment. Other features such as reinforced hexagonal frame extrusions, an anti-lock braking system (ABS), dual front airbags (SRS) and 3-point seat belts with pretensioners are further arrayed in your defense against the uncertainties of the outside world.

The anti-lock braking system (ABS) uses a special modulator to pulse the brakes to help prevent wheel lockup. This helps the driver retain steering control when braking hard.
In the event of a moderate-to-severe frontal impact, the dual front airbags (SRS) inflate and deflate in a fraction of a second and are designed to help prevent serious head and upper-body injuries.
The front and rear crush zones provide driver and passenger protection in moderate-to-severe full-frontal and offset-frontal impacts.
Front 3-point seat belts with pretensioners ride across the lap and chest to help restrain occupants during sudden stops or impact.
The dual side-impact door beams help provide protection in a side impact.
