Rear Traffic Alert

You can’t always see what might be crossing behind you when reversing out of a parking spot or backing out of a driveway. IQ.DRIVE technologies can help monitor what’s behind, alerting you when cars and motorcycles that could cause a collision are detected and helping hit the brakes before it’s too late.⁠

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)

When the road gets busy, IQ.DRIVE can help keep things cruising. When dealing with traffic on the highway, it uses sensors to detect vehicles ahead of you, helping adjust your speed, and manages the distance between you and what’s in front of you, adapting to the situation you’re in.⁠

Active Blind Spot Monitor

When you’re focused on the journey ahead, your vehicle’s IQ.DRIVE technologies can help by alerting you when another vehicle may be hiding in your blind spots and helping counter-steer when necessary.
