I believe the new Elantra, besides all the airbags, has these "active
headrests" that activate in case of a crash.

What is the purpose of these, and how do they function to prevent whip
lash ? Have never had a car with them.

Thanks,
Bob

They move forward to keep your head in an upright position. There is
information in the manual about them.

I didn't know active head restraints had been implemented in the Elantra.
That's really good news.
