Blind-Spot Collision Warning (BCW) / Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA)

Description of the System

The Blind-Spot Collision Warning system uses radar sensors in the rear bumper to monitor and warn the driver of approaching vehicles in the driver's blind-spot zone.

1) Blind spot

It warns by detecting vehicles in the blind spots. The blind-spot detection range varies depending on vehicle speed.

Note that if your vehicle is traveling much faster than the vehicles around you, the warning will not appear.

2) High-speed closing

The BCW function warns you when a vehicle is approaching in the adjacent lane at high speed. If the driver turns on the turn signal when the system detects an approaching vehicle, the system sounds a warning alarm.

Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist

Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist detects the vehicle ahead through the camera mounted on the upper front windshield and detects side/rear areas through the rear corner radars.

BCA may activate the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) according to the possibility of collision with an approaching vehicle during a lane change. This is to reduce the risk of collision or reduce collision damage.
