BMW 7 Series: Evasion Assistant

Concept

The system supports the driver in making evasive maneuvers in certain situations, such as when obstacles or persons suddenly appear.

General information

The system issues a warning and intervenes to support the driver if a lateral evasive maneuver is possible. Sensors monitor and detect the clearance around the vehicle. If the system identifies space alongside the vehicle, it supports an evasive maneuver begun by the driver by safely providing targeted steering support.
