Driver Assistance features can help give you more confidence on your drive.
The Blind Spot Monitor is a feature that can sense what you might miss. If you attempt to change lanes, Blind Spot Monitor can help alert you to other cars that may be in your blind spot.
The Forward Collision Warning (included in Front Assist) system can help monitor traffic and can alert you acoustically and visually to a potential rear-end collision with the vehicle moving ahead. If it senses that a collision is imminent, Autonomous Emergency Braking (included in Front Assist) can support the driver with increased brake pressure or, if the driver does not react at all, it can apply the brakes automatically. The Pedestrian Monitoring (included in Front Assist) feature can warn of pedestrians crossing in front of the vehicle and, under certain circumstances, can brake automatically to help mitigate the outcome of a collision with a pedestrian if the driver doesn't respond to the warnings.
Rear Traffic Alert comes in handy when you're backing up. It has sensors that can alert you to detected vehicles crossing in your path when in reverse and can even help brake the vehicle if needed.
Safety
Designed for the Road Ahead
Safety Cage
Front and rear crumple zones help absorb crash energy, while a rigid safety cage helps distribute forces away from the driver and passengers.
Intelligent Crash Response System (ICRS)
In the event of a collision that deploys the airbags, the ICRS can turn off the fuel pump, unlock the doors, and activate the hazard lights. It helps react if you might not be able to.
Automatic Post-Collision Braking System
Not every collision brings a car to stop. That's why our vehicles include the Automatic Post-Collision Braking System. It can also help slow the vehicle down after a collision, helping reduce the chance of any additional impacts.
Rear View Camera System
Benefit from the view of a wide lens when you want it. It can help you see obstacles when backing up, a feature so helpful you'll wonder how you ever managed without it.
Six stability-enhancing systems
Six stability-enhancing systems From Electronic Brake-pressure Distribution (EBD), which helps maintain appropriate stopping power during a hard-braking situation, to Electronic Stability Control (ESC), which can adjust engine throttle and apply corrective forces to the wheels that need them most, your vehicle is equipped with a total of six stability-enhancing systems.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Monitoring and maintaining proper air pressure in your tires helps with efficiency and safety. The TPMS helps alert you to a loss of tire pressure so you know when to add air.
