Home/2027 Carnival Hybrid/Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist 2 (FCA2)
FORWARD COLLISION-AVOIDANCE ASSIST 2 (FCA2)*

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist 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 FCA detects that the collision risk has increased, FCA may automatically brake or steer the vehicle to reduce the risk of collision .

Junction Turning /Junction Crossing : The system may detect an oncoming vehicle from an adjacent lane or through an intersection and automatically apply the brakes to help mitigate a potential collision.

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 FCA detects a risk of collision with a pedestrian or cyclist, it may warn the driver and potentially assist the driver’s steering.

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