Mitsubishi Safety Systems: Advanced Features for Modern Driving

In today’s fast-paced world, staying safe on the road requires more than cautious driving alone. Mitsubishi safety systems provide drivers with the additional protection they need, detecting threats, providing alerts, taking preventative actions, and even driving the car for you. The following are a few prime examples of Mitsubishi’s best safety features, which will come either as standard or optional on your preferred model. 

Mitsubishi Safety Systems: Advanced Features for Modern Driving

Forward Collision Mitigation With Pedestrian Detection

With this feature, a front-facing camera and radar continually monitor the road ahead for collision threats. If either another vehicle or a pedestrian appears to pose such a threat, your car will detect it and give you a clear warning. It’s sometimes difficult for drivers to respond immediately to sudden threats; if you can’t take evasive action in time, your car will apply the brakes with suitable force to avoid or at least mitigate the impact. 

Active Blind Spot Assist

Drivers are often unable to see cars behind and to the left and right of the vehicle. These blind spots pose a collision threat, especially when changing lanes. Blind Spot Warning monitors these blind spots and warns you whenever a vehicle enters one of them; you’ll see a light appear on the corresponding side view mirror. 

If you’re indicated, showing an intent to change lanes, while a car is in your blind spot, a warning light will also blink, and you’ll hear three distinct warning beeps. With Active Blind Spot Assist, your car can even apply the brakes to prevent an accident. 

Rear Automatic Emergency Braking

With this feature, your car monitors the area behind your car with sonar. This makes reversing far safer; if you’re backing up and your car detects an obstacle drawing too close, it will issue a warning. Your Mitsubishi can also apply the brakes to prevent a rear collision. 

MI-PILOT Assist

Driving can be stressful and fatiguing, which poses a safety risk as tired drivers have reduced reaction times. MI-PILOT Assist takes away a great deal of driving fatigue by navigating both highways and stop-and-go traffic for you. 

Once the feature is activated, your car handles the gas, brakes, and steering to stay safely centered in the lane and at appropriate distances from other vehicles. This includes coming to a complete halt in traffic and starting up again when the traffic moves.
