Toyota Innova HyCross: Debuts Toyota’s ADAS package in India

The Indonesian version of the HyCross, Toyota Zenix, features Toyota Safety Sense 3.0, and the automaker will be retaining it for the India-bound variant as well. Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 comes with safety features like Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Lane Departure Alert (LDA), Automatic High Beam (AHB), and Road Sign Assist (RSB).

Toyota Innova HyCross makes its debut, comes with a strong hybrid configuration

Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) alerts the driver of oncoming pedestrians and moving vehicles when there is a possibility of a collision. If the driver fails to hit the brakes, the car automatically deploys braking to avoid a collision or reduce the impact. Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) maintains a preset distance to the vehicle in front of you. In case the distance between the two cars reduces, TSS will decelerate your car and eventually apply the brakes. When the distance increases, your car will accelerate until you hit cruising speed. 

Toyota Innova HyCross: What’s on offer?

Lane Departure Assist (LDA) uses the camera to identify road markings and alerts the driver when the car starts to cross the markings without turning on the turn indicator. Automatic High Beam (AHB) comes in handy during the nighttime and adjusts your light beam according to the oncoming traffic. Road Sign Assist uses the camera to identify the road signs (like speed limit) and alerts the driver whenever there’s a breach.
