Toyota takes your safety seriously.

These models are also available with smart safety systems, including the cutting-edge contents of the Toyota Safety Sense™ suite. This advanced tech bundle offers alerts and assistance to let you hit the road with confidence, so take a closer look at what Toyota’s safety technology can do for you.
Toyota Safety Sense Tech
What is Toyota Safety Sense? It’s a collection of safety features designed to alert the driver to risks on the road and even take automatic action to keep you and your passengers out of harm’s way. Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 includes tech tools like these:
- Pre-Collision System: This system uses various sensors to monitor the risk of collision, alert the driver, and even apply the brakes if needed. It senses cars, pedestrians, and cyclists and brings the risk to your attention via forward collision warning. If you don’t act quickly to the warning, it will initiate automatic emergency braking.
- Proactive Driving Assist: This tool utilizes a camera and radar to detect curves and other vehicles. If it senses that you need to increase your following distance or adjust your speed around a curve, it can apply light braking and/or steering.
- Lane Tracing Assist: Lane Working alongside Toyota’s Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, this feature detects lane markers and other vehicles ahead of you to provide active driving assistance in order to keep your car in the correct lane.
- Lane Departure Warning: If this system senses that your car is about to pass over lane markings or the road’s edge, it will warn you with an audio/visual alert. If you don’t respond promptly, it can also correct your trajectory via its steering assist function.
- Road Sign Assist: This feature uses an advanced camera to read oncoming traffic signs like speed limits or stop signs. It then shows you an icon of the signs it detects on your dash’s display screen.
Many new Toyota models are available with these systems and more. As you explore your options, you’ll see vehicles that can be equipped with various additional safety features like dynamic radar cruise control, automatic high beams, and front and rear parking sensors.
