The car is also very well equipped when it comes to advanced safety features and includes systems such as an Autonomous Emergency Braking System which warns the driver when an obstacle such as a car or pedestrian is detected by using radar and laser scanning, as well as a camera sensor positioned at the top of the windscreen. It also comes with Traffic Safety Assist and High Beam, a Lane Departure Warning System, Blind Spot Detection, Lane Change Assist and a Traffic Alert System to help protect the rear of the car when reversing out of a parking bay.
