The innovative PUH provides pedestrian protection in the event of a frontal collision and at the same time enables a sporty design with a low hood line. When the sensors mounted in the front bumper determine that the vehicle has collided with a pedestrian, the hood instantly pops up to create a space to absorb the impact force.
One of the advanced safety systems that help drivers feel at home behind the wheel in sports and daily driving, this system uses millimeter-wave radars mounted in the rear bumper to detect vehicles in adjacent lanes that are not visible in the door mirrors. The moment a vehicle enters this blind spot, the driver is warned by an indicator in the relevant door mirror.
LDA alerts the driver with 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. The Automatic High Beam System helps safe driving at night by instantly switching from high to low beam when the lights of an oncoming vehicles, or the tail lights of a vehicle in front, are detected.
When the millimeter-wave radar detects the likelihood of a collision with the vehicle or obstacle ahead, it alerts the driver with a display and a buzzer, and the pre-crash brake assist increase braking force when the driver depresses the brake pedal. If it determines a collision is difficult to avoid, the pre-crash brakes and pre-crash seatbelts also operates to help reduce injury due to collision.
The GX460 has been engineered to achieve class-leading safety performance. High tensile steel has been used throughout to produce a stiff structure that is very effective at absorbing energy in a collision. The GX460 also features ten SRS airbags as standard, including front seat SRS knee airbags and SRS side airbags in the outboard second row seats. The driver’s and front passenger’s seats also feature WIL (Whiplash Injury Lessening) concept and Active Headrest, to help minimize the risk of neck injuries in low speed rear-end collisions.
When the pre-crash safety system (Millimetre-wave radar type) determines that there is a likelihood of a collision with a vehicle in the road ahead, it alerts the driver with a display and a buzzer, and the pre-crash brake assist operates to increase the braking force when the driver depresses the brake pedal. When it determines that it is difficult to avoid a collision, the pre-crash brakes operate to help reduce the collision speed even if the driver does not apply the brakes.
The GX460 incorporates steering-wheel-mounted control switches and voice control let you keep both hands on the wheel. Powerful high beam halogen headlamps contribute to excellent visibility without causing glare to oncoming traffic, while advanced LED headlamps are used for the low beam.
It integrates a precision obstacle detection system that uses millimeter-wave radar, stereo cameras and near infra-red projectors to constantly monitor conditions in front of the vehicle, to anticipate and help avoid accidents. A driver monitor system helps promote caution even when the driver is not facing forward.
When AHS detects the lights of an oncoming vehicle or the tail lights of a car in front, it automatically controls switching of the headlamps from high beam to low beam and adjusts the illumination range in response to the movement of the detected vehicle,enhancing nighttime driving by enabling more frequent use of the high beams.
Radar devices mounted in the rear bumper detect vehicles in adjacent lanes that are not visible in the door mirrors. The moment a vehicle enters this blind spot, the driver is warned by an LED indicator in the relevant door mirror.
