Safety First: A Closer Look at Chevrolet’s Advanced Safety Features
Driving a Chevrolet is not only fun but also safe. With Chevrolet vehicles, passengers and drivers can enjoy incredible peace of mind on the roads of Lansing, East Lansing, and Grand Ledge, MI. At Feldman Chevrolet, we also prioritize safety above all else. This is why we put together this guide about Chevrolet's advanced safety features and how they contribute to a secure driving experience.
Safety Assist Features
Chevrolet's safety assist features are designed to provide an extra layer of protection and awareness while driving. Automatic Emergency Braking, for example, works with Forward Collision Alert to detect a potential front-end collision with a vehicle ahead, assisting in avoiding or mitigating a collision by automatically applying the brakes if necessary.
For additional protection, Front Pedestrian Braking detects pedestrians directly ahead and assists in avoiding or reducing the impact of a collision by automatically applying the brakes if a pedestrian is detected.
The Lane Keep Assist feature uses gentle steering wheel inputs to alert drivers when they unintentionally drift out of their lane, helping them maintain safe lane positioning and reducing the risk of side collisions. To further avoid collisions, the Forward Collision System warns drivers of potential front-end collisions with vehicles ahead, enabling them to take prompt action to avoid accidents by providing visual and audible alerts.
The Following Distance Indicator provides real-time feedback on the gap between your vehicle and the one in front, helping you maintain a safe following distance by displaying the distance in seconds on the instrument cluster.
Lastly, Intellibeam® automatically adjusts high beam headlamp usage based on surrounding traffic conditions. The result is optimized visibility without glare to other drivers to enhance nighttime driving safety.
Active Safety and Driver Assistance Technology
Chevrolet's active safety and driver assistance technologies are designed to provide additional peace of mind and convenience, serving as assistance for drivers in different road conditions.
One of the key driver assistance features is Adaptive Cruise Control. This automatically maintains a set following distance from the vehicle ahead, reducing the need for frequent braking and accelerating, especially during long highway drives.
On the other hand, the Rear Cross Traffic Alert with Braking alerts drivers to oncoming cross traffic when reversing and can intervene to mitigate potential collisions by automatically applying the brakes if necessary. Other driver assistance features on Chevrolet vehicles are:
- Rear Pedestrian Alert
- Side Bicyclist Alert
- Rear Camera Mirror
- High Definition Surround Vision
- And more!
In addition to its driver assistance features, Chevrolet adds some extra features to further enhance safety and security, such as Teen Driver and OnStar Safety & Security.
