In addition to maintaining a constant speed, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control uses the radar and camera sensors to detect a vehicle driving ahead and maintain an appropriate distance between vehicles.
When the system detects a vehicle within the area illuminated by the high beams, it disables/enables 8 upper and 16 lower LEDs on each side to partiallyblock light from the high-beam headlamps so that they don’t directly project onto a preceding or oncoming vehicle. In this way, it helps to provide the driver with good visibility by illuminating road signs and other objects in front of the vehicle, without dazzling other vehicles.
LKA alerts the driver with a sensory alert using steering wheel vibration or a buzzer, and on the multi-information display if the system judges the vehicle is about to cross the lane markings without using the turn signals, and assists steering to help avoid lane departure.
When the millimeter-wave radar and monocular camera sensorsdetect a collision with a vehicle or pedestrian*ahead is likely, it alerts the driver and activates pre-collision brake assist when the driver depresses the brake pedal. If the driver cannot depress the brake pedal, it activates the pre-collision brakes

For easy access, auto lift-up raises the seat lifter when the driver gets out and then returns it to the original seat position when the driver gets in. Cushion side-away opens the outboard side cushion supports to reduce the pressure on the thighs while getting in and out.
To make the front seatbelts easy to use, the seatbelt buckle lifts up when the door is opened and then moves back down once the seatbelt is fastened.
In addition to the vehicle height adjustment function which can be switched between Normal and High settings, access mode automatically raises the vehicle to make ingress and egress easy.
