These days, it seems like every car brand has its own name for its driver-assistance technology. There's power in a name, though, which is why Mazda went with i-ACTIVSENSE®. This isn't just a passive safety system like airbags or car-body design. This suite of technologies offers Mazda models at Gullo Mazda of Conroe like the Mazda CX-5 a suite of systems that work together to help prevent and reduce the severity of accidents.
How Does i-ACTIVSENSE® Work?
i-ACTIVSENSE® uses a variety of sensors and advanced algorithms to detect obstacles and help the driver avoid them. Your Mazda CX-5 is equipped with milliwave radar, cameras, near-infrared lasers and quasi-milliwave radar. This allows it to see all around you and work out a digital map of your surroundings. It can see when there's a car ahead of you on the roads of Conroe, how far away it is and how fast it's going. It can also detect where the lane markings are and if there are vehicles in your blind spot.
Driver Assistance You Can Get with the Mazda CX-5
Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop and Go allows you to relax on both the open highway and in traffic. Like regular cruise control, you set a speed for the car to stay at, but this system can watch the speed of preceding cars and match them, meaning you won't have to adjust the speed just because the car ahead of you slowed down for a moment.
Additionally, systems like Lane Departure Warning System with Lane-keep Assist help you return to your lane when you drift out by providing mild steering torque and strategic braking. Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross Traffic Alert monitors your blind spots and can alert you if you try to merge or back up into the path of another vehicle.
These driver-assistance technologies and more are all standard across all trims of the Mazda CX-5. The Mazda CX-5 Signature comes with additional front and rear parking sensors, a 360-degree view monitor, Driver Attention Alert and Smart City Brake Support when in reverse.
If you want to get a rundown of all these features and more, don't hesitate to schedule a test drive with one of our new Mazda CX-5 models at Gullo Mazda of Conroe.
