-
Monitoring the distance
Radar sensors detect distance and relative speed of vehicles ahead.
-
Adjusting the speed
Speed, acceleration and retardation of the vehicle are actively regulated, thus maintaining the distance to the vehicle ahead.
-
Active help while driving
The control unit calculates the best distance strategy and controls engine torque and brake management.
By far – a safe system
Speed is often underestimated and the distance to the vehicle in front is easily overestimated. The Adaptive Cruise Control[Van-LimitsSystem] is able to automatically adjust the driving speed, as well as the distance to the vehicle ahead, in line with the preset settings. It can be used from a speed of 25 km/h onwards.
Active distance control
Distance analysis
The radar sensor with a range of approx. 150 m recognises the distance to and the relative speed of the vehicles ahead in the same lane.
Distance strategy
Using the sensor data, the vehicle’s own speed and the driver’s actions, the control unit calculates the best distance strategy and controls engine torque and continuous and service brakes.
Cruise control
Speed, acceleration and retardation of the vehicle are actively regulated, thus maintaining the distance to the vehicle ahead.
