Exclusive Safety Features Nissan Has To Offer
Automobiles represent fun and convenient form of mobility that can be operated by one person. At Nissan, they strive to make vehicles that provide a rich and enjoyable driving experience while delivering excellent dependability and safety to ensure peace of mind.
Emphasized on the concept of "Real World Safety," Nissan has made significant progress - with SRS airbag systems and occupational safety technologies with advanced technology such as zone body construction, ABS (Anti-lock Braking System), and VDC (Vehicle Dynamics Control). Driver assistance such as AFS (Adaptive Front Lighting System) - resulting in a 27% reduction in fatal and severe injuries. It is associated with Nissan vehicles in 2004 compared to 1995.
Distance Control Assist System
With the radar sensor's help on the front bumper, the driver can control the distance from the vehicle in front. The accelerator pedal is also mounted to help the driver switch on the brake. These functions reduce the driver's burden, especially in road conditions that require continuous braking.
Intelligent Cruise Control with the Following Low-speed Capability
When behind a vehicle, the system uses data from radar sensors mounted on the front bumper to properly control the next distance according to a given cruising speed (approximately 40-100 km/h). With no vehicle in front, the set cruising speed will be maintained. The slow chase mode operates at speeds below approximately 40 km/h to maintain a reasonable chase distance in congested traffic and reduce the driver's workload.
Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFS)
Most pedestrians are killed at night, so improving visibility is essential to preventing such accidents. Nissan AFS automatically adjusts the angle of the AFS lights (located in the headlights) in the vehicle's direction, depending on the steering angle and the car's speed, thereby helping to identify the obstacles on the road.
For better exposure, xenon headlamps produce brighter white light closer to sunlight in colored light. This powerful but natural looking light enhances confidence for driving safely at night.
Lane Departure Warning
With a front-facing camera to detect lane dividing lines, the system alerts the driver if the vehicle intentionally leaves the lane. In 2004, Nissan launched lane departure warning technology in passenger cars in North America. Operation is interrupted when the relevant flashing is turned on.
Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD)
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) technology's application EBD, an application, controls rear-wheel braking when brakes are applied, indicating traction loss in the front and rear wheels. By controlling the brake force distribution in the front and rear wheels according to a load of passengers and luggage, the EBD reduces the difference in braking performance, whether the vehicle load is light or heavy.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
ABS's hydraulic brake pressure is electronically controlled to prevent wheel lockup during sudden braking on wet, snowy, or low-grip surfaces. This helps maintain vehicle stability and steering control in case of emergency braking.
This system supports the driver by providing necessary braking in emergency braking situations but is usually required with less force on the brake pedal. The brake assist comes into action when the driver pushes on the brake pedal that exceeds a specific limit.
Zone Body Construction
Nissan's zone protects occupants by combining the body's shock-absorbing structure (crushing zone) and a high-powered cabin (occupying zone). With the version of the Nissan March (named after the Japanese model) released in 2002, Nissan strengthens the occupant protection of the host vehicle and reduces the "aggression" on other related vehicles, which is more advanced Is introduced "Crash Sync" zone body in an accident.
When pedestrians are involved, energy-absorbing structures in the hood, fenders, and hood of the vehicle help reduce head injuries. In contrast, the front bumper's energy-absorbing material reduces the impact on the legs.
Nissan identifies problems and develops new technologies while improving existing security technologies. This process is essential for the continuous evolution of safety performance in Nissan.
