Adaptive cruise control in the Econic.
The adaptive cruise control system monitors the distance to the vehicle in front using radar sensors and, if necessary, automatically adjusts the speed. In this way, the system improves safety for all road users while providing the driver with essential support.
Preventing rear-end collisions.
Keeping a safe following distance takes a great deal of attention both in urban traffic and long-haul transport. There is a particular risk of serious rear-end collisions involving trucks occurring at the end of traffic jams.
In situations such as these, this radar-based system significantly improves safety on the roads by helping the driver to maintain a sufficient distance from the vehicle in front.
From speeds of only 15 km/h.
The optional adaptive cruise control of the Econic becomes active from a speed of only 15 km/h. It corrects the vehicle’s speed upwards or downwards depending on the situation. When approaching a vehicle in front, the distance control system, automatically reduces the speed to maintain the pre-set safe following distance. And when the traffic lane is clear, the system helps the driver to maintain the desired speed. In both cases, cruise control can ensure optimum adaptation to the current traffic flow.
