Cruise control plans accleration and braking based on traffic, speed limits, and topographical information. | |||||
Car will accelerate, steer, and brake itself at low speeds as long as it has another car ahead of it driving at a low speed and it can detect the lane markings. | |||||
Often must be ordered with power rear side windows, if these are available. | |||||

Only listed when pricing a single model because insufficient data for all cars. | |||||
Automatically pulse the brakes in hard stops to prevent wheels from locking up, making it possible to brake and steer at the same time. | |||||

Automatically brakes car to avoid low-speed collisions. | |||||
Mirror-mounted lights indicate when another vehicle is in a blind spot. | |||||
When a panic stop is sensed, fully applies the brakes. | |||||

Warns of traffic coming from either direction when vehicle is in reverse, to prevent accidents when backing out of parking spaces. | |||||

Selectively applies the brakes to prevent excessive understeer or oversteer (spinning). | |||||
Two types: a warning light when a tire is low on air and a pressure readout for each tire. | |||||
Uses the brakes to channel torque to the outside wheels and counteract understeer. Similar to stability control, but proactive, and acting to improve cornering performance rather than prevent loss of control. | |||||
When a drive wheel slips, it is braked and/or engine power is reduced, restoring traction. | |||||
Pulses the inside rear brake to help the vehicle make sharper turns at low speed in low range. | |||||
