City Safety can help avoid a collision with a vehi-
cle, cyclist or large animal ahead by reducing the
vehicle's speed using its automatic braking func-

speeds specified below, the City Safety auto-
brake function cannot prevent a collision, but it
can help mitigate its effects.

vehicle ahead by reducing your vehicle's speed
by up to 60 km/h (37 mph).
Cyclists
City Safety can help prevent a collision with a
cyclist ahead by reducing your vehicle's speed by
up to 50 km/h (30 mph).
Pedestrians
City Safety can help prevent a collision with a
pedestrian ahead by reducing your vehicle's
speed by up to 45 km/h (28 mph).
