  • Smart Pilot Assist – Employs a virtual smart pilot to the charge of steering, acceleration, and braking to help the driver to keep the vehicle in the centre of the traffic lane.
  • Traffic Sign Recognition – TSR feature assists the driver by displaying speed limit signs in the instrument cluster display
