adaptive cruise controlDriver assistance features are rapidly becoming more important every day. They present a level of convenience for motorists like never before. But, more importantly, they provide an unprecedented level of safety for you and your family. Volkswagen has adopted and integrated many of these features. Here are 8 ways your Volkswagen makes driving a little easier.

FWD Collision Warning – Sensors in the front of your car warn you what’s ahead.

Autonomous emergency braking – If those sensors detect that a crash is imminent, the autonomous braking system will take over to stop the vehicle.

Adaptive cruise control – This takes cruise control to the next level. Not only does it maintain speed, but it does so while maintaining a preset distance from the car in front of you.

Lane departure warning – Also called lane assist, your Volkswagen will correct itself and steer you back into your lane if it senses you drifting into the next lane without using your turn indicator.

Blind spot monitor – The blind spot sensor sounds an alarm if you are trying to change lanes and there is another motorist in the lane you are changing to.

Volkswagen has a long standing reputation for putting your safety above everything. Driver assistance features like these are just one example of how we try to live up to that reputation.
