Accident prevention
Keeping people safe is all a part of the Touareg’s nature. With the ability to detect hazards, these safety systems can support you in critical situations, activate protective mechanisms to tighten seatbelts and roll the windows up, or even bring the vehicle to a stop. Emergency Assist Combines the functions of Lane Assist and Adaptive Cruise Control. The system is alerted when no steering, braking or acceleration activity is detected despite sensing traffic ahead. Initially, the system attempts to wake the driver by steering jerks and finally an emergency stop is initiated and hazard warning lights are activated.1 Proactive Occupant Protection System Automatically initiates protective mechanisms when a potential hazard is identified – seatbelts tighten, windows roll up leaving a slight crack.1 Electronic Stabilisation Program (ESP ®) With the antilock braking system (ABS) and the traction control system support the driver in critical situations.1 Oncoming vehicle braking when turning To help prevent collisions, the Touareg comes equipped with oncoming vehicle braking that automatically kicks in when you’re turning if the car detects a vehicle in your path.1 Multi-collision braking If the worst happens and you are in an accident, the Multi Collision Brake system automatically slows the vehicle to help prevent a second collision.1
For an all-round overview
Manoeuvring in the busy city centre, in a multi-storey car park or in rough terrain: There are many situations in which drivers could use a few extra eyes. With the "Area View" you get four cameras that capture the area around the car and transmit helpful insights to the screen of the infotainment system. For example, you can see curbs or parking markings better and can even look around the corner.1
