The Aygo city car and Yaris supermini are now available with Toyota Safety Sense, providing a suite of features that can help pre- vent an accident happening, or re- duce the severity of an impact. Toyota Safety Sense is being rolled out across the range. Aygo and Yaris customers can now specify the package as an option on their new car, adding to the models' already impressive active and passive safety features. On Aygo, Toyota Safety Sense provides a laser-controlled Pre- Collision System that warns the driver of an imminent collision with a vehicle ahead (Forward Collision Warning) and readies Pre-Crash Brake Assist to deliver emergency braking as soon as the brake pedal is pressed. Should the driver fail to take action after the warning, the system will initiate Autonomous Emergency Braking to reduce speed by about 19mph, potentially bringing the car to a stop, to prevent a collision or re- duce the force of impact. The Forward Collision Warning works at speeds between 10 and 86mph, when the relative speed between the Toyota and the car ahead is greater than 10mph. The Pre- Crash Brake Assist functions at speeds between 19 and 49mph, with relative vehicle speeds great- er than 19mph. For Autonomous Emergency Braking, the speed range is from seven to 49mph. A Lane Departure Alert func- tion is also included. This moni- tors lane markings on the road and helps prevent accidents and head-on collisions caused by a ve- hicle moving out of its lane. If the car starts to deviate from its lane without the turn indicators being used, the system alerts the driver with visual and audible warnings. The same Toyota Safety Sense features are available for Yaris, together with Automatic High Beam. This detects both the head- lights of oncoming vehicles, and the tail lights of vehicles ahead, automatically switching between high and low beams to avoid daz- zling other drivers and improving the driver's night-time vision.
