City Safety steering assistance for evasive manoeuvre
City Safety steering assistance can help the driver to steer away from a vehicle/obstacle when it is not possible to avoid a collision simply by braking. City Safety steering assistance cannot be switched off, it is always activated.
Your car steers away
Slow moving/stationary vehicles or obstacles.
City Safety engages by amplifying the driver's steering input, which only occurs after the driver has begun an evasive manoeuvre - and then only if the driver is not steering enough to avoid a collision.
In parallel with the amplified steering input, the brake system is also used to further amplify the steering input. The function also helps to straighten the car again after passing the obstacle.
City Safety steering assistance can detect:
- vehicles
- cyclists
- pedestrians
- larger animals.
