Mazda i-ACTIVSENSE technologies explained

July 22 2022,

i-ACTIVSENSE technology is a set of safety technologies that can not only detect a potential hazard but can also intervene to prevent accidents. The ultimate goal is to make sure that you and your family remain safe on the road. Moreover, Mazda engineers worked hard to ensure that Mazda i-ACTIVESENSE technologies are not intrusive and never impact driving enjoyment or comfort. Here’s a breakdown of some of the Mazda i-ACTIVESENSE technologies offered on new Mazda vehicles.

Adaptive Cruise Control

As soon as the adaptive cruise control is enabled, the system automatically maintains a safe distance between you and the vehicle ahead. This makes driving on the highway a lot more enjoyable.

Collision Prevention System

Automatic collision avoidance detects potential hazards in front of you and can automatically apply the brakes if you do not react to the warning. This makes driving in the city a lot more enjoyable.

Lane Departure Prevention System

A lane departure warning system is capable of detecting when your vehicle is about to cross over into the next lane unintentionally. If this should happen, the system will first warn you. If you do not adjust the trajectory, the system will then place the vehicle back in its lane.

Rear Cross Traffic and Blind Spot Monitoring

Blind Spot Monitoring sends a visual signal to the rearview mirror if another vehicle is in your blind spot. The Rear Cross Traffic Monitoring System can detect the presence of a vehicle approaching perpendicularly when you are backing up.
