Their names are hard to keep straight, but they will keep you between the lines and even brake for you. And more tech is coming.
When buying a new car it’s easy to get bamboozled by so-called “specs”. There’s so much jargon it’s difficult to know what’s important: From cylinders, displacement, kilowatts, torque, transmission and cargo volume to turning circle. Throw in an array of acronyms — like ESC, ABS, AEB, LSS to BSM — and it’s no wonder many of us throw up our hands when purchasing a new vehicle, and say: “Whatevs. I’ll just buy the red car”.
It pays, however, to know your car’s safety features. They not only help you, the driver, survive a crash, but hopefully avoid one altogether.
So, here are some terms and tech you shouldn’t overlook when buying a new vehicle.

Meet Three Young Women Who Are Challenging, Leading and Shaping Change in Australia
We’re only 6 months in and this year, and let’s just call it for what it is… Tough…. We’ve spent a lot of our time in lockdown, we’ve spent even more time trying to navigating the ‘new norm’ and guilty as charged, we’ve drunk too much wine.

We’re championing young women across the country be it through their work, side hustle or unwavering support for their communities and cheering them on with a nod to their incredible achievements.

What the Budget Means for Women in Australia
On Tuesday, May 11th the Federal Government handed down its latest and highly anticipated, budget. Last year, we saw the government spend big on tax cuts, infrastructure and encouraging business spending, with the challenges facing women in the midst of the pandemic almost entirely left off the agenda.
This time around, things are slightly brighter for women in Australia. Childcare subsidies, greater investment in domestic violence support and amended super rules are some of the key changes helping to improve women’s economic security.
But has the government gone far enough to redress gender inequality in Australia? Let’s find out.

The truth is there’s a lot of significant change going on, and it can be difficult to get a handle on what it all means for us. So, let’s take a deeper look at the key movements happening in Australia and what impact they could have on women and Australian society at large.

New National Anthem or National Debacle?
It is only now that we as a business truly understand the ramifications of our anthem and what it actually means for our indigenous community. From the 1st of January 2021 the second line of the Australian national anthem changed from “we are young and free” to “For we are one and free”.
First Nations Founder and chairman Yorta Yorta Ian Hamm said the fresh line was an important symbol. “You do need symbolic change; you do need real change.
The Stella Women Series Featuring Moo Baulch
The Stella team met Moo and some of her colleagues from WAGEC a couple of months ago and there were immediately synergies between their goal to end gender-based violence in a generation and what we at Stella are committed to achieving as a business.
Stella was born to be more than just an insurer; we believe that we can make meaningful change through education, support and empowerment that will give women the tools they need to make informed choices and amplify women’s voices for generations to come. We’re delighted to be able to use our voice in promoting WAGEC’s work to drive positive social change and help them to shine a light on the underlying structural causes of domestic and family violence, homelessness and gender inequality.
