The automotive industry has drastically improved over the years and one area where it has made some of its most significant changes is car safety. In today's day and age, the biggest brands in the industry equip their cars with much more than just airbags and anti-lock brakes, they incorporate a collection of advanced features that assist drivers during their daily commutes. It's these components that are truly revolutionizing the auto world and how car safety is carried out, and to keep you up to date with the changes, we've created a rundown of the top advanced Safety Shield Technologies offered on our lineup. You can find each one in our brand-new 2015 Nissan Altima, Pathfinder and Rogue models, which you can look for now at Trophy Nissan.
Blind Spot Warning
The risks associated with having a car in your blind spot is no longer an issue with Nissan's Blind Spot Warning. The system uses sensors to detect a vehicle in the driver's blind spot and then uses signals to inform the driver in order to prevent an accident.
Predictive Forward Collision
Predictive Forward Collision works by warning the driver when a potential dangerous situation is in front of the car. It can predict possible obstacles up to two cars ahead, which gives the driver plenty of time to avoid the danger.
Forward Emergency Braking
Using audible and visual signals, the Forward Emergency Braking system notifies drivers when there are potential obstacles up ahead. This gives the driver time to slow down, preventing a collision from occurring.
Intelligent Cruise Control
Nissan's Intelligent Cruise Control helps secure drivers by controlling following distance and modifying the car's speed when taking a curve too fast. The program uses the vehicle's navigation system to plan for upcoming changes in the road and makes adjustments accordingly.
Cross Traffic Alert
With the help of radar, Cross Traffic Alert is able to detect when another car is heading towards the vehicle when emerging from a parking spot. The system signals the driver, warning him about the oncoming car, and gives him plenty of time to avoid the vehicle.
Around View Monitor
Nissan's Around View Monitor system uses four mounted cameras to provide a 360-degree view around the car. This allows drivers to view the vehicle's placement at all times; it also provides support when parking, reducing the chance of avoidable accidents.
Moving Object Detection
Working in conjunction with the Around View Monitor System, Moving Object Detection alerts drivers when an object is near the car while pulling out of a parking space. This allows them to maneuver the vehicle away from the object safely.
