TBC High-Speed Tire Blowout Stabilization System: A first in its class, this system rapidly intervenes in the event of a tire blowout within 140 km/h, providing lateral, vertical, and horizontal control, limiting lateral deviation to within 75 cm and significantly enhancing driving safety.
The "Eye of God C" driving assistance system is standard across all models, providing L2+ autonomous driving capabilities. Using high-definition cameras, radar, and sensors, the system monitors the surrounding environment in real time and features adaptive cruise control and lane keeping.
