Safety.

Active Brake Assist 6 Plus.

Emergency Brake Assist ABA 6 Plus assists the driver by automatically initiating emergency braking if there is a risk of a rear-end collision with vehicles in front or stationary obstacles. It can also detect moving or stationary pedestrians and cyclists in front of the vehicle. The system can respond with an audible and visual warning as well as automatic partial or maximum full-stop braking.

Attention Assist (AtAs) 2.

Attention Assist (AtAs) 2 is a safety assistance system that can help prevent microsleep. It thus contributes to improved driving safety, particularly on long journeys and when driving at night. The system warns the driver visually and acoustically if it detects typical signs of drowsiness or inattentiveness and prompts the driver to take a break. The warning is issued independently of the legally prescribed driving and rest periods or the functions of the digital tachograph.

Electronic Stability Program (ESP®)

The Electronic Stability Program (ESP®) significantly reduces the risk of the vehicle skidding and tipping over by targeted braking of individual wheels or total braking of the vehicle to counteract skidding or tipping of the vehicle within the physical limits.

Tire pressure monitoring system (TPM).

The wireless tire pressure monitoring system with display in the multifunction display is an electronic safety system that permanently monitors the inflation pressure of all tires. Tire pressure losses are displayed within the frame of the system limits.

Sideguard Assist 2.

Sideguard Assist 2 is a safety assistance system that supports the driver on both sides in critical turning situations with possibly restricted visibility. The system is intended to help the driver to detect moving obstacles within the system limits and warn the driver in order to avoid critical situations or reduce the consequences of accidents when turning off or when changing lanes.

Active Sideguard Assist 3.

Active Sideguard Assist 3 monitors the front and side areas of the vehicle and assists in critical turning and lane-changing situations. When turning left, the system detects oncoming traffic and warns of collisions in good time; when turning right, the focus is on objects at the side. If the driver continues to turn despite danger, a stepped warning is issued with active brake application to reduce the danger.

Lane Assistant (SPA).

With the aid of a camera system behind the windshield, Lane Keeping Assist SPA detects when the vehicle unintentionally leaves the marked lane. As soon as the vehicle crosses the marking lines, the driver is warned by a noticeable vibration on the corresponding side of the driver’s seat seat surface.

MirrorCam

The modern MirrorCam system enables a clear and comprehensive view of the road traffic. Equipped with high-resolution cameras, driving safety and the risk of accidents are minimised. The extended field of vision enables the driver to detect pedestrians, cyclists and other road users in the vicinity. This eliminates the blind spot when turning right.

Traffic Sign Assist.

The innovative Traffic Sign Assist offers maximum safety and comfort on the road. Thanks to GPS and camera support, the vehicle speed is continuously compared with the valid traffic rules.

Frontguard Assist

Frontguard Assist is an advanced system that has been specially developed to inform the driver about people in the immediate vicinity of the front of the vehicle and to warn of an imminent accident. Whether moving off or driving slowly (up to 15 km/h), the intelligent assistant can detect potential collisions with unprotected road users.

Active Cross Traffic Assist.

Active Cross Traffic Assist supports the driver with automatic brake applications for crossing vehicles in the angle range of 65° to 115°. The system works over the entire speed range and supplements existing assistance systems by reacting specifically to crossing vehicles.
