Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)
Volkswagen safety and convenience technology

Not quite. ADAS is designed to assists you, but you’re still in control. Think of it as a helpful co-driver, always alert, never distracted, and ready to step in when needed. Full autonomous driving is a separate technology, and while we’re making strides, ADAS is here to support not replace you.

Depending on the model, you’ll find a range of features such as Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Assist, Front Assist with City Autonomous Emergency Braking, Traffic Sign Recognition, and Park Assist. Each one is designed to make driving easier and safer, especially in busy or unfamiliar environments.

Some features are always on, while others can be switched on or off depending on your preference. You’ll find everything you need in your infotainment system or vehicle settings. If you’re unsure, contact your local retailer and they will be happy to help.

ADAS can help reduce the risk of accidents by alerting you to potential hazards and, in some cases, taking action to avoid them.

ADAS is designed to perform in a wide range of conditions. Like any technology, it has its limits. Poor weather, road markings, or visibility can affect performance. That’s why it’s important to stay alert and use ADAS as a support and not a substitute for safe driving.

Depending on your model, software updates may be available to enhance existing features. For hardware upgrades, contact your local retailer, they’ll let you know what’s possible and what’s compatible with your vehicle.
