A parking assistance system based on ultrasonic (sonar) technology. The front and rear bumper-mounted parking sensors alert the driver – through a series of beeps and car frame graphics on the instrument panel – when the vehicle is too close to an object.
A system designed to prepare the vehicle’s passive safety equipment in anticipation of a collision. The Pre-Crash Seatbelt System uses information from the Brake Assist (BA) system and/or the Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) system to prepare the front seatbelts in anticipation of a collision. It uses electric motors to pre-tension the driver and front passenger’s seatbelts. There are two conditions that activate of the Pre-Crash Seatbelt System – a sudden, hard push on the brake pedal or information from the Vehicle Stability Control unit indicating that the vehicle is skidding.
System consisting of a television camera mounted near the rear number plate and the vehicle’s EMV screen. The camera system operates when reverse gear is selected, providing a clear view of what is behind the vehicle.
Judges the driver's intention based on accelerator usage and vehicle condition to provide gearshift patterns that suit individual driving styles and conditions.
Toyota’s body design with crumple zones front and rear, and a high-integrity cabin section. The crumple zones are designed to progressively absorb impact energy. The cabin is designed to provide survival space for the occupants, including head and foot space.
System that uses satellite global positioning (GPS) and, in the Toyota SatNav, map information stored on DVD to provide navigation assistance both visual on an EMV screen and voice. The use of DVD map storage provides rapid route calculation. Control and destination input is by touch screen. In city routes, the Toyota SatNav system provides the quickest, shortest and alternate routes.
It calculates ideal (traffic-free) travelling time depending on road type and the average speed for the type of the road (as defined by the user). The system includes a comprehensive menu of popular destinations and points of interest, and the ability to store a menu of personal destinations.
Smart Start (or Push Button Start) provides push-button engine start and stop. It operates when the key is within range of the internal antennae.
A feature in the all-wheel drive system that automatically distributes power to the axles with the best traction.
A semi-active system to improve ride and handling and enhance driving dynamics both on and off road. TEMS allows the driver to select a suspension setting for optimum ride comfort and handling depending on the road surface and driving conditions.
A Toyota global initiative that harnesses GPS and mobile telephone technology to give the driver roadside assistance and to enable the vehicle to be tracked if it is stolen. It therefore increases safety, security and customer convenience through a direct link between the car and the Toyota assistance centre. The centre can assist in the event of the battery level falling, the alarm being triggered, the owner being locked out of the vehicle and or an incident in which the SRS airbags are deployed.
System designed to maximum safety when accelerating on slippery road surfaces or when the available grip differs from one side of the vehicle to the other (such as when two wheels are on a gravel or grass verge). Operated by controlling the throttle and/or applying the brakes to any wheel that is slipping.
