Toyota Safety Sense™

No matter your destination, Toyota is committed to getting you and your loved ones there safely. That's why we've developed a special package of safety features crafted to support our drivers throughout the day, no matter where their journey takes them. From inclement weather to last-minute decision making, we've got you covered. Welcome to Toyota Safety Sense™.1

Toyota Safety SenseTM builds upon the previous TSS-C and TSS-P suites and features six active safety and driver assistance systems to address three key areas of accident protection: preventing or mitigating frontal collisions2, keeping drivers within their lane3 and enhancing road safety during nighttime driving4. Still, it's important to remember that all drivers are responsible for safety.

Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection (PCS w/PD)

PCS2 is an innovative technology that utilizes an integrated forward-facing camera and grille-mounted radar system designed to help you avoid or mitigate a frontal collision. Toyota Safety SenseTM makes this system even better by adding a low-light detection for pedestrians as well as daytime bicycle detection.

Bicycle Detection

In this newest version of the Toyota Safety Sense suite, PCS has been designed to detect bicycles in daytime situations, as well as vehicles and pedestrians in both daytime and low-light conditions. Similar to the Pre-Collision System, audible and visual notifications are given when a possible collision9 with a pedestrian or bicycle is detected, as well as brake assistance and even automatic braking if no action is taken.3

Lane Departure Alert (LDA)

LDA3 utilizes the vehicle's forward-facing camera to detect lane departure when driving on relatively straight roads with clear markings, road edges or curbs. If the LDA system senses unintentional steering out of the lane, it alerts the driver with audio and visual alerts.

Steering Assist

Electronic Power Steering (EPS) includes Steering Assist,12 a function that may automatically make small corrective steering inputs if LDA senses lane departure.

Road Edge Detection

LDA has been updated with Road Edge Detection in TSS, which may be capable of sensing the boundary between the road surface and the side of the road.

Automatic High Beams (AHB)

To help make nighttime driving both easier and safer, Automatic High Beams4 use a camera to detect oncoming vehicles and automatically switch from high beams to low and back.4

Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC)

Building on standard cruise control technology, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control5 uses forward-sensing radar technology and a camera to gauge the speed and distance of the vehicle in front of yours. It can adjust speed automatically to keep the optimal distance between you and those in front of you, especially when traffic is congested.5

Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control

This feature is designed to operate between 0-110 mph. This enables low-speed following, matching speed and, under certain circumstances, stopping before colliding with preceding vehicles on highways. The Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control feature is available only with an automatic transmission.

Road Sign Assist (RSA)

RSA6 reads certain traffic signs and shows them on the vehicle's Multi-Information Display. The system can detect Speed Limit, Stop, Yield and Do Not Enter signs.

Lane Tracing Assist

LTA7 works with Dynamic Radar Cruise Control to keep the vehicle centered within its visibly marked lane by utilizing the forward-facing camera. It is designed to automatically make constant steering inputs, but it does require the driver to keep their hands on the steering wheel. Some models equipped with TSS will not have the LTA feature.

1. Drivers are responsible for their own safe driving. Always pay attention to your surroundings and drive safely. System effectiveness is dependent on many factors including road, weather and vehicle conditions. See Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and details.

2. The TSS Pre-Collision System is designed to help avoid or reduce the crash speed and damage in certain frontal collisions only. It is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving. System effectiveness is dependent on many factors including road, weather and vehicle conditions. See Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and details.

3. Lane Departure Alert is designed to read visible lane markers under certain conditions, and provide visual and audible alerts when lane departure is detected. It is not a collision-avoidance system or a substitute for safe and attentive driving. Effectiveness is dependent on many factors including road, weather and vehicle conditions. See Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and details.

4. Automatic High Beams operate at speeds above 25 mph. Factors such as a dirty windshield, weather, lighting and terrain limit effectiveness requiring the driver to manually operate the high beams. See Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and details.

5. Dynamic Radar Cruise Control is designed to assist the driver and is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving practices. System effectiveness is dependent on many factors including road, weather and traffic conditions. See Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and details.

6. Do not rely exclusively on Road Sign Assist (RSA). RSA is a driver support system that utilizes the vehicle’s forward-facing camera and navigation system (when data is available) to recognize certain road signs and provide information to the driver via the multi-information display and/or Head-Up display. Effectiveness is dependent on road, weather, vehicle and sign conditions. Use common sense when using RSA and do not drive distracted. See Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and details.

7. Lane Tracing (Trace) Assist (LTA) is designed to read visible lane markers and detect other vehicles under certain conditions. When potential lane departure is detected, LTA provides a visual warning and either an audible alert or vibration in the steering wheel and can apply a slight steering force. It is not a collision-avoidance system or a substitute for safe and attentive driving. Effectiveness is dependent on many factors including road, weather and vehicle conditions. See Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and details.

8. Brake Assist (BA) is designed to help the driver take full advantage of the benefits of ABS. It is not a substitute for safe driving practices. Braking effectiveness also depends on proper vehicle maintenance, tire and road conditions. See Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and details.

9. The Pedestrian Detection System, part of the Advanced Pre-Collision System, is designed to detect a pedestrian or bicyclist ahead of the vehicle, determine if impact is imminent and help reduce impact speed. It is not a collision avoidance system and is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving. System effectiveness depends on many factors, such as speed, size and position of pedestrian or bicyclist and weather, light and road conditions. See Owner's Manual for additional limitations and details.

10. Feature availability may vary by model and trim level. See dealer for details.
