RSPA 2 automatically maneuvers the EV9 into the designated parking space, using the ultrasonic sensors to detect obstacles, intervening on the accelerator, brakes and gearbox. The system autonomously applies the brakes if it detects an obstacle. EV9 is also equipped with Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA) which watches over potential collisions during the phases of reverse gear.
Among the advanced driver assistance systems there are also the Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA)The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) and theIntelligent Speed Limit Assist (ISLA). The Smart Cruise Control (SCC)based on the navigation system, instead ensures safe driving in highway and on roads intended for motor traffic, while theHighway Driving Assist 2 (HDA 2) supervises lane changes, warning the driver with a detection sensor (HOD).
The other technologies like the Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance And Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist they help the driver to avoid any collisions when parking.
