Equipped with 2nd generation Toyota Safety Sense

Next-generation Toyota Safety Sense will be installed as standard on all models. It uses a laser radar and camera to ensure excellent recognition performance and reliability, and is packaged with collision avoidance support PCS, LDA, and AHB. It has collision avoidance support/damage mitigation performance that can be used up to high speeds.

Pre-crash safety (PCS) with pedestrian detection and collision avoidance support  uses a laser radar and camera to detect obstacles in front of the vehicle.If there is a risk of collision, the system first alerts the driver with a buzzer and display. Urges you to step on the brakes. If the driver notices the danger of a collision and steps on the brakes, powerful brake assist is activated. Furthermore, even if you do not apply the brakes, for example, if your vehicle’s speed is 30 km/h relative to a stopped vehicle, the system will automatically apply the brakes to reduce the speed to approximately 30 km/h to help avoid a collision. Automatic braking operates over a wide speed range of approximately 10 to 80 km/h, and responds to over 80% of rear-end collisions that actually occur. For pedestrians, PCS automatic braking is now activated in the range of approximately 10 km/h to 80 km/h, even at night.

Road Sign Assist (RSA)  has expanded the range of detection targets, and also reads major traffic signs on the side of the road, such as “Speed ​​Limit,” “Stop,” “No Entry,” and “No Extending,” and displays them on the instrument panel.

A Lane Departure Alert (LDA)  camera recognizes white and yellow lines in the driving lane, and if a possibility of lane departure is detected, a buzzer and display alert the driver to avoid collisions caused by lane departure. support.

An automatic high beam (AHB) camera detects the headlights of an oncoming vehicle or the taillights of a vehicle in front, and automatically switches between high and low beams to reduce dazzling to drivers of other vehicles and ensure forward visibility at night. support.

Radar Cruise Control  Radar cruise control uses millimeter-wave radar to detect the distance between the vehicle in front and the vehicle in front, and adjusts the speed to match the speed of the vehicle in front within a set vehicle speed, allowing the vehicle to follow the vehicle while maintaining a constant distance. Adopted. Lane changes by the vehicle in front are detected using millimeter wave radar and cameras, achieving smoother acceleration and deceleration control. Aiming for “zero traffic accident casualties”, which is the ultimate wish of a mobility society, Toyota researches and develops various safety equipment and systems based on the “Integrated Safety Concept,” and is committed to “developing safer vehicles and technology.” At the same time, we are strengthening a wide range of initiatives for traffic safety through “participation in improving the traffic environment” and “traffic safety awareness activities for people.”

Lane Tracing Assist (LTA)  When driving on a highway or expressway, when the radar cruise control is activated, turning on the Lane Tracing Assist [LTA] switch will provide steering support necessary to maintain lane.

Leading vehicle departure notification function  If you stop following a vehicle in front while waiting at a traffic light or in traffic jams, and remain there without noticing that the vehicle in front has started, you will be notified with a buzzer and a display.
