Lots of cars look good in the showroom. Prizm is not only designed to look good, but to
provide you with secure, dependable transportation -- for years to come. To back up that
promise, every Prizm includes a comprehensive GM 3-year/36,000-mile (whichever comes
first) New Vehicle Limited Warranty,** 24-Hour Roadside Assistance, and a standard safety
package unrivaled by many cars costing thousands of dollars more.
94 percent of Prizm owners have said they'd recommend Prizm to a friend.* It's one of
the reasons why the new 1999 Prizm is a very intelligent choice.
Money-Saving Features
A stainless-steel exhaust system, long-life engine drive belt and extended-life engine
coolant are just a few of the features that make Prizm so easy to own.
Long-Lasting Good Looks
Prizm is more than just another pretty car. Youll immediately notice the high
standards of "fit and finish." To keep Prizm looking sharp for years to come,
anti-chip paint protects the lower doors and the front hood edge. Plus, available alloy
wheels are specially coated.
24-Hour Roadside Assistance
If you need assistance changing a tire, if you lock your keys in your car or if you just
need directions, help is a phone call away. Just call 1-800-CHEV-USA. Some services may
incur costs. See your dealer for details.
Impressive Fuel Efficiency
Prizm doesnt sacrifice fuel efficiency for power. The estimated 1999 EPA fuel
economy is 31 city, 37 highway with the standard 5-speed manual transmission.
DOHC Performance
Thanks to an advanced 16-valve, dual overhead camshaft (DOHC) engine design, youll
enjoy quick response at city speeds and smooth passing power on the highway. Horsepower is
120 at 5600 rpm.
Occupant Protection Features
Every Prizm is equipped with dual air bags, front and rear head restraints (outboard); and
safety-cage construction (including steel side door beams and front and rear crush
zones).There are also child-security rear-door locks, and front safety belts with safety
belt pretensioners and force-limiters. Upon air bag deployment during a frontal impact,
the safety belt pretensioners tighten instantly to remove slack. The safety belt
force-limiters help keep chest loads from becoming excessive, reducing the risk of injury.
All three rear-seat occupants have lap/shoulder safety belt protection, and a rear child
safety seat is optional in LSi Sedan. Optional on all models: side-impact air bags for the
driver and front passenger.
Side-Impact Air Bags
Optional side-impact air bags on both the driver and front-passenger side work with the
vehicles body-side structure to help reduce the risk of injury to front-seat
occupants rib and chest areas in side impacts, such as those that can occur in some
intersection collisions.
Rear Child Safety Seat
Prizm LSi provides the perfect fit with an optional rear child safety seat (Prizm is one
of the few cars in its class with this option).
