Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)

FORWARD COLLISION-AVOIDANCE ASSIST 2 (FCA2)*

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist 2 is designed to detect a vehicle, a powered two-wheeler, a pedestrian, or a cyclist ahead on the road and may warn the driver of a possible collision with a warning message on the Instrument Cluster and a warning sound.

If FCA2 detects an increased risk of collision, it may automatically apply the brakes or steer the vehicle* to potentially reduce the effects of a possible collision .

Junction Turning function may help avoid a collision with an oncoming vehicle detected in an adjacent lane when turning left at a crossroad with the turn signal on by applying emergency braking.

Junction Crossing function may help avoid a collision with oncoming vehicles detected on the left or right side when crossing an intersection by applying emergency braking.(Junction Crossing)

Direct Oncoming Response function may reduce the vehicle speed and temporarily apply braking when FCA2 detects a vehicle is approaching directly in front.

Lane-Change Oncoming function may help avoid a possible collision with a detected oncoming vehicle when changing lanes by assisting the driver’s steering.

Lane-Change Side function may help avoid a possible collision with the vehicle detected ahead in the next lane when changing lanes by assisting the driver’s steering.

Evasive Steering Assist function may help avoid a possible collision with a vehicle, pedestrian or cyclist detected ahead in the same lane. When a risk of collision is detected, Evasive Steering Assist function will warn the driver and if the driver steers to avoid collision it may assist the driver’s steering.

If a pedestrian or cyclist is ahead in the same lane when a risk of collision is detected, FCA may warn the driver and if there is space to avoid collision in the lane, it will assist the driver’s steering.

Reminders:

  • Once the risk factors are not detected, these functions will deactivate.
