Smart City Brake Support (SCBS)

*

The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system alerts the driver of a possible collision using 

an indication in the display and a warning sound when the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) 

detects a vehicle ahead and determines that a collision with a vehicle ahead is unavoidable 

while the vehicle is being driven at a vehicle speed of about 4 to 80 km/h (2 to 50 mph). 

In addition, the system reduces damage in the event of a collision by operating the brake 

control (SCBS brake) when the system determines that a collision is unavoidable while the 

vehicle is being driven at a vehicle speed of about 4 to 30 km/h (2 to 18 mph). It may also 

be possible to avoid a collision if the relative speed between your vehicle and the vehicle in 

front of you is less than about 20 km/h (12 mph). In addition, when the driver depresses the 

brake pedal while the system is in the operation range at about 4 to 30 km/h (2 to 18 mph), 

the brakes are applied firmly and quickly to assist. (Brake Assist (SCBS brake assist))
