Safety Highlights

Tasman Pick-up model shown

  • Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB)*

    AEB alerts the driver to sudden slowdowns of the preceding vehicle or detects potential collision risks with vehicles, pedestrians, or cyclists. It automatically intervenes with braking assistance if the risk of collision escalates after the initial warning.

  • Rear Cross Traffic Collision Avoidance Assist (RCCA)*

    Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) warns the driver with audio & visual alerts when detecting vehicles approaching from either side of the vehicle when reversing. Rear Cross-traffic Collision Avoidance Assist (RCCA) combines alerts from the RCTA system with braking to help prevent possible collisions.

  • Trailer Stability Assist*

    Trailer Stability Assist (TSA) helps keep the trailer from swaying dangerously outside the lanes while being towed.

  • Highway Driving Assist 2 with Lane Change Assist*

    Highway Driving Assist (HDA) assists in maintaining a set distance and speed from the vehicle ahead and also helps to keep the vehicle centered in the lane while driving on highways or motorways.

    Available on SX grade.

  • Driver Attention Warning with Lead Vehicle Departure*

    Driver Attention Warning (DAW) monitors the driver's driving patterns and if there are signs of driver fatigue or inattentive driving, DAA recommends taking a break through audio & visual warnings.

    Lead Vehicle Departure system notifies the driver when the vehicle in front is driving away when both vehicles are stationary, such as at a traffic stop.

  • Lane Keep Assist & Lane Following Assist 2*

    Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) and Lane Following Assist (LFA) helps the vehicle to remain in the centre of the lane by continuously correcting the course of the vehicle.
