Driver Assistance with IQ.DRIVE
Drive peace of mind with driver assistance technology that helps enhance safety.

Travel Assist
From steering support to speeding up or slowing down, IQ.DRIVE technology helps keep your mind at ease. Our engineers would tell you it’s because it has hands on semi-automated driving capabilities, but we like to think of it as an added boost of reassurance to help keep you safer on the road.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
When the road gets busy, IQ.DRIVE can help keep things cruising. When dealing with traffic on the highway, it uses sensors to detect vehicles ahead of you, helping adjust your speed, and manages the distance between you and what’s in front of you, adapting to the situation you’re in.

Active Blind Spot Monitor
When you’re focused on the journey ahead, your vehicle’s IQ.DRIVE technologies can help by alerting you when another vehicle may be hiding in your blind spots and helping counter-steer when necessary.

Rear Traffic Alert
You can’t always see what might be crossing behind you when reversing out of a parking spot or backing out of a driveway. IQ.DRIVE technologies can help monitor what’s behind, alerting you when cars and motorcycles that could cause a collision are detected and helping hit the brakes before it’s too late.

Front Assist
Even when we’re driving at our best, we still need to keep an eye out to avoid accidents with other cars or pedestrians in front of us. Thankfully, the IQ.DRIVE technology monitors the road ahead with the ability to help brake on its own. It’ll first provide audio and visual alerts when you’re driving at higher speeds and at risk of a potential collision. Then, if necessary, it’ll automatically apply brakes to help mitigate or avoid a collision.

Lane Assist
No matter what kind of road you’re driving on, if you’re 35 mph or faster, IQ.DRIVE can help keep you from going over the lines. If your vehicle begins to drift without your turn signal on, IQ.DRIVE can warn you and counter steer when activated to help ensure you stay in your lane.

Driving conditions aren’t always perfect, which is why there’s available 4MOTION® to distribute power between the front and rear wheels as needed to help optimize traction, stability, and your happiness.

4MOTION® with Active Control.

Snow Mode
In Snow Mode, the engine can upshift earlier, which helps keep it in a lower rpm range and helps prevent too much power from going to the wheels too quickly.

On-Road Mode
In good conditions on a paved road, stay in On-Road Mode, and choose from four different settings combining performance and comfort.

Off-Road Mode
Off-Road Mode can help maintain traction on challenging road surfaces. On steep grades, it can activate Hill Descent Control to help keep a safe speed as you descend.

Off-Road Custom Mode
Within Off-Road Mode custom settings, the driver can set various parameters like steering and all-wheel-drive options to their own preferences.

Safety
A lot goes in before you do.

Stay focused.
Benefit from the view of a wide lens when you want it. It can help you see obstacles when backing up, a feature so helpful you’ll wonder how you ever managed without it.

We're rigid about safety.
Front and rear crumple zones help absorb crash energy, while a rigid safety cage helps distribute forces away from the driver and passengers.

Intelligent by design.
In the event of a collision that deploys the airbags, the ICRS can turn off the fuel pump, unlock the doors, and activate the hazard lights. It helps react if you might not be able to.

We think ahead.
Not every collision brings a car to stop. That’s why our vehicles include the Automatic Post-Collision Braking System. It can also help slow the vehicle down after a collision, helping reduce the chance of any additional impacts.

Safety. Engineered from the ground up.
Monitoring and maintaining proper air pressure in your tires helps with efficiency and safety. The TPMS helps alert you to a loss of tire pressure so you know when to add air.

Equipped for peace of mind.
From Electronic Brake-pressure Distribution (EBD), which helps maintain appropriate stopping power during a hard-braking situation, to Electronic Stability Control (ESC), which can adjust engine throttle and apply corrective forces to the wheels that need them most, your vehicle is equipped with a total of six stability-enhancing systems.
