Ultrasonic sensors in the rear bumper measure the distance between the vehicle and an obstacle.
This measurement is indicated by beeps which become more frequent the closer you come to the obstacle, until they become a continuous beep when the vehicle is approximately 20 to 30 centimetres from the obstacle.
The system detects obstacles to the front, the rear and the sides of the vehicle.
When traffic conditions permit (large free-flowing road or motorway), the adaptive cruise control gives you the option of maintaining a chosen speed, known as the cruising speed, which can be set from 31 mph to 87 mph (50 and 140 km/h), or 93 mph (150 km/h) depending on the vehicle, while keeping a following distance from the vehicle in front in the same lane.
The overspeed alert with signage panel recognition notifies the driver that they are exceeding the speed limit for the section of road on which they are currently travelling.
