Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection

Toyota Safety Sense’s has been updated to include Cyclist Detection and Night-time Pedestrian Detection. The system combines a camera with radar technology to detect cyclists and other vehicles on the road, while the update also allows pedestrians to be detected in low light too. When the possibility of a collision is realised, the driver is alerted with audio and visual warnings. If the driver doesn’t react, the brakes engage automatically. Even if the driver applies the brakes, the system contributes additional braking pressure to prevent or mitigate collision.

Lane Departure Alert with Steering Control

Using a camera to detect the lane markings in the road ahead, Toyota Safety Sense's Lane Departure Alert will alert the driver with audible and visual warnings if the vehicle starts to deviate from its lane without the turn indicator being applied. Steering Control applies corrective force in the case of unintentional lane departure.

Road Sign Assist

Toyota Safety Sense's Road Sign Assist monitors the road signs ahead, displaying useful information such as the current speed limit or overtaking restrictions in clear view on the new colour TFT cockpit display. The system also provides a visual and acoustic warning if you are not following the road sign indication.

Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control

Toyota Safety Sense’s Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control keeps the car at a pre-selected speed, while maintaining a minimum distance from the vehicle in front. If this distance falls, the system reduces speed automatically, applying the brakes if necessary. If the distance increases again, the car will gradually accelerate until it returns to the chosen cruising speed. If the speed limit changes, the system will detect the change via Road Sign Assist and warn the driver, so he/she can reduce the pre-selected cruising speed using a control on the steering wheel.

Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)

VSC automatically activates each individual brake as needed and controls engine output to help maintain stability and prevent skidding when turning sharply or cornering on slippery road surfaces.

Blind Spot Monitor (BSM)

The Blind Spot Monitor system allows the driver to manoeuvre more safely during lane changes. If the rear-mounted radar sensors detect a vehicle in your side or rear blind spot, a warning indicator will illuminate on the appropriate side mirror. Should you indicate to change lanes and a vehicle is in your blind spot, the warning indicators will flsh to alert you that a lane change should be avoided.

Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)

RCTA allows you to reverse out of a parking space safely by detecting other vehicles approaching your blind spot area. Using quasi-millimetre wave radar, RCTA alerts you with a buzzer and flashing indicators on the outer mirrors.

Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

Sensors continually monitor the air pressure in each tyre – including the spare wheel. If any tyre experiences a drop in pressure, the TFT dashboard display indicates which wheel needs attention. The result is better fuel economy, an added sense of security when driving and reduced tyre wear and tear.
