For Toyota, safety has always been a primary priority, and for many years, the automaker has been at the forefront of automotive safety technology. This commitment to safety has led to a number of innovation and a fleet of vehicles that grows safer by the year. In addition to superior engineering and implementation of high-strength build materials, Toyota also offers the Toyota Safety Sense (TSS) suite of driver assistance features. These technologies include:
- A Pre-Collision System (PCS): This system uses a combination of lasers and an in-vehicle camera to determine the possibility of a frontal collision. The system prompts the driver to take evasive action and can even apply braking force automatically.
- Lane Departure Alert: This system alerts the driver if it detects unintentional drifting in the lane. Some versions of the system employ a steering assist feature that can provide corrective steering action if necessary.
- Automatic high beams: This system automatically lowers the high beams when it detects oncoming vehicles.
- Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC): This system automatically maintains a set distance from the vehicle in front while in cruise control. The system will reduce and increase speed automatically without needing to reset.
The best part about Toyota Safety Sense is that Toyota believes advanced safety features should be accessible to everyone. That's why TSS is included as standard equipment on 2017 Toyota models. If you would like more information about TSS or any of the 2017 vehicles in our inventory, don't hesitate to contact us at your convenience with any questions.
