What benefit does installing airbags in automobiles provide?

Reduces vehicle manufacturing costs
Increases vehicle fuel efficiency
Reduces illnesses and injuries from crashes
Enhances vehicle aesthetics

The correct answer is: Reduces illnesses and injuries from crashes

Airbags in automobiles provide the benefit of reducing illnesses and injuries from crashes. This is because airbags are designed to rapidly inflate upon impact, providing a cushion for the driver and passengers and helping to reduce the force of impact. Option A is incorrect because installing airbags does not necessarily reduce vehicle manufacturing costs. In fact, it may increase costs due to the added technology and safety regulations. Option B is incorrect because installing airbags does not directly impact vehicle fuel efficiency. Option D is incorrect because airbags are not primarily installed for aesthetic enhancement, but rather for safety purposes.
