Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Keeping Assist Minimum Speeds?

[155]

Has Toyota said what the minimum speeds will be for Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Keeping Assistance/Lane Deviation Warning on the 2010 Prius?

i believe adaprtive cruise control is 25 mph, while LKA is 50 mph.... LDW works at lower speeds than LKA. LKA works only when ACC is on, since it will steer your car as well.

you know i was watching this in Avensis presentation just yesterday but mind wanders often, and we didnt get ACC/LKA/LDW/PreCrash on our market so didnt pay much attention...

The US market is getting it though right? (I hope)

Was this in information on the web somewhere? I'd love to see it.

I understand you have are a dealer, so I presume you have access to the European media site. Have you seen the new Prius 2010 european version photos?

We have the HUD that AFAIK is not available to the USA market. Any news about that cluster of buttons near the radio on the left side?

After all the talk you had about EuroNCAP and precrash, you finally understood all is needed is VSC ehm?

What else have you learned? Take a closer look at the european prius photos here at this post of mine (click on the photos for high-res):

Yes, the US model will get the Adaptive cruise option. I saw it with my own eyes at the Prius Connect event.

You left out the LKAS? Does that mean the US model is not getting that?

Yes. We saw that too. It's available on the higher packages.

LKS is part of the same package.

nah, it is needed for EuroNCAP, our market does not get the system, since LKA will not work properly if road lines are not pained always (like on our local roads), so toyota did not allow its sale over here... unlike Honda for instance, where we were able to try it out on new Accord while testing Avensis, and a bit scary experience when no lines are there ;-)
