Is Aqua's safety performance enough?Check the degree of advanced safety technology (~ June 2021)

The progress of the curtechnology is tremendous, and it is now a natural era with equipment that was unthinkable a long time ago.Advanced safety equipment such as collision damage reduction brakes and pedal steps in mistakes is one of them.Advanced safety equipment is a reassuring enthusiasm that reduces the dangers of accidents, but the degree of fulfillment varies greatly depending on the model.

Here, let's introduce the safety performance of Toyota "Aqua".

[Points of this article] ✔ "TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE" is not a standard equipment. ✔ In addition to "TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE", the special specification car added in recent years is equipped with intelligent clearance sonas [parking support brake (stationary)].Aqua does not mean that all cars are certified as "Sapable S -Wide"

Characteristics of Aqua's safety performance

Aqua appeared in December 2011 and has a longer model life, but the collision avoidance support package "TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE C" (at that time (at that time, Aqua TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE C "(at that time), including collision damage reduction brakes during partial improvements in November 2015.The name, now a name change to "TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE").After that, the safety performance has been constantly updated, such as improving the detection function of collision reduction brakes, and adding an "Intelligent Clearance Soner [Parking Support Brake (Staint)]", which is a sudden starting suppression device in the event of a mistake in pedaling, has been added.。

Other than the highest "G" among the three types of Aqua's grade "L", "S", and "G", "TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE" and "Intelligent Clearance Soner [Parking Support Brake (Staint)]" are standard.It is not equipped, but can be added as an option.

Now that advanced safety equipment is installed and it is a natural era, special specifications added in recent years are "toyota Safety Sense" and "Intelligent Clearance Soner [Parking Support Brake (Staint)]".It is installed.The "GR" series is equipped with "TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE", but there is no "Intelligent Clearance Soner [Parking Support Brake (Staint)]".

Aqua with "TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE" and "Intelligent Clearance Soner [Parking Support Brake (Still)]" is the "Sapaker S -Wide", which has the most advanced safety equipment among "sapers".increase.

Contents of Aqua's "TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE"

Here, let's take a look at what advanced safety technology is in Aqua's "TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE".

Pre -crash safety

Source: Toyota "Aqua" features

It is a collision damage reduction brake that detects vehicles and pedestrians and operates the automatic brake if there is danger.

2種類のセンサーで障害物を検知

Use two types of sensors, a single eye camera and a laser radar, to detect vehicles and pedestrians.If the system determines that there is a danger of collision with your car, a warning will be issued and the driver will be warned.

ブレーキアシストを作動して制動力をアップ

If the driver steps on the brake after receiving an alarm, the system performs brake assist and improves braking force to avoid collisions.

ブレーキを踏めなかった場合には自動ブレーキを作動

If the driver does not step on the brake for any reason, it will operate the automatic brake to avoid collisions or reduce collision damage.

The detection target is a vehicle and a daytime pedestrian, and the automatic brake is about 10 to 80 km/h for vehicles and about 10 to 65 km/h for pedestrians.

Lane Departure Alert

If the system recognizes the lane while driving at about 50 km/h or more, and if the vehicle is about to protrude the lane without a blinker operation, the sound and the display will notify the driver the danger of lane deviation.

There is no steering operation support function that supports the driver avoidance operation.

Automatic high beam

The system automatically switches between high beams and low beams, reducing the trouble of switching headlamps manually, and contributes to safe driving by preventing switching to switch.It works while driving at about 30km/h or more.

In addition, an attached function that uses the sensor technology of "TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE" is the "preceding vehicle launch notification function".This is a function that warns when the car starts when the car starts when waiting for a traffic light or traffic jam, and prevents the delay from being delayed.

Other advanced safety technology

Aqua uses advanced safety technology in addition to "TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE".

Intelligent Clearance Sonar [Parking Support Brake (Still)] (Standard equipment for grades excluding "L", "S" and "GR" series, "L" and "S" manufacturer options)

The eight sonar installed in the vehicle detects obstacles such as walls (still objects), and informs the driver in a buzzer sound and display of approaching obstacles when entering a garage.

Also, if an obstacle in the traveling direction is detected during low -speed driving of about 15 km/h or less, the output of the hybrid system is automatically controlled, and the risk of the collision is higher when the clashes are increased.It is an excellent system that can also control.

Panoramic view monitor (standard equipment for "S" style Black "", "G" manufacturer package option)

Source: Toyota "Aqua" features

It is a function that shows images that look down on the vehicle from directly above on the compatible navigation screen, supporting the safety confirmation of places that are blind spots from the driver's seat.It will be active at parking or intersection.

Aqua's safety equipment is less than the latest one.

Aqua can be evaluated for updating safety performance from time to time, but in addition to the fact that advanced safety technology is not standard equipment, there is no driving support function with steering operation, so it is slightly inferior to the latest ones.It can be said.

It seems that the model life is long, so it is waiting for a full model change, but I hope that the latest safety equipment will be added a little more.
