If collision detection system senses imminent collision, applies moderate braking. | ||
Automatically applies the brakes if you're about to back into something. | ||
Selectively applies the brakes to guide vehicle back into the original lane when detects that a lane change will cause a collision with a vehicle in the blind spot. | ||
Mirror-mounted lights indicate when another vehicle is in a blind spot. | ||
When a panic stop is sensed, fully applies the brakes. | ||

Selectively applies the brakes to prevent excessive understeer or oversteer (spinning). | ||
Two types: a warning light when a tire is low on air and a pressure readout for each tire. | ||
Uses the brakes to channel torque to the outside wheels and counteract understeer. Similar to stability control, but proactive, and acting to improve cornering performance rather than prevent loss of control. | ||
When a drive wheel slips, it is braked and/or engine power is reduced, restoring traction. | ||
Cargo Management | ||
Above floor system for organizing cargo. | ||
