virtually any speed. airbags are not deployed based on speed (this is a common misconception). They are based on the vehicles detection of a sudden stop or reduction of inertia. Example: going 30 mph and hitting a brick wall. Thus, stopping your vehicle instantly.
Example 2 : Going 70mph and hitting the back of a car that is going only 30 mph. This is a reduction of inertia based on the fact that your vehicle didnt stop but did have enough of a reduction in inertial forces to cause the deployment of an air bag.
vehicles equipped with airbags have multiple sensors and modules to detect whether an accident warrants the deployment of airbags. They analyze and interpret this info as the event is occurring. it is a very fast and reliable system.
The minimum speed set by the government for airbags to deploy is 25 mph. The 2007 PT Cruiser should have the airbags deploy at this rate of speed or less. It also depends on the type of collision, when the airbags will deploy.
Airbags deploy at up to 300 km/hr.
there is no minimum speed the car can be parked and someone run into it and the airbags can deploy
200 mph

It deploys at about 25mph
The force of the collision has to be great enough
no minimum speed. the vehicle can be stopped and someone else hit it and bags will deploy depends on where it was hit and how hard
SRS (Supplimental Restraint System) aka Airbags dont have a set speed that they deploy... They deploy when jolted hard enough or have been strucked in an impact.
Frontal Airbags will deploy at at least a 55 mph crash or more.
The vehicle has to be traveling above a certain speed for the air bag to deploy. I believe it is 35 mph. It could be more.
The force of the collision has to be great enough
