Combined airbag inflation and occupant displacement enabling system including a seat movably attached to a floor pan of the vehicle for supporting an occupant, an airbag which is inflated to protect the occupant during a crash, a sensor which detects that a crash requiring deployment of the airbag is required and an inflator which inflates the airbag. The inflator is coupled to the sensor and is triggered to inflate the airbag in response to the detection by the sensor of a crash requiring deployment of the airbag. The seat is arranged to move upon inflation of the airbag whereby movement of the seat causes displacement of the occupant. If an anticipatory sensor is provided, the seat can be designed to move at any time after a determination is made that a crash will occur.
