• Blind-Spot View Monitor – Your vehicle uses cameras to provide a live video feed of your blind spot so you can make a safe lane change when necessary.

• Lane Keeping Assist – The vehicle will help keep you in the detected lane by monitoring the lane markings on the road. The driver will be alerted if the vehicle drifts in and out of the lane.
• High Beam Assist – Your vehicle can detect the headlight and taillights of a vehicle and then switch between the low and high beams when necessary.

• Lane Following Assist – When taking a curve, your vehicle can help you stay centered in the designated lane.
• Blind Spot Collision Avoidance Assist – When making a lane change, the vehicle will use sensors and radars to monitor the blind spot. If a vehicle is detected in the blind spot, then an alert sound and the vehicle will put you back in your lane by using the left or right front brakes.
