Subaru’s EyeSight collision avoidance technology utilises stereo colour cameras to monitor the road and traffic ahead for potential hazards, and is capable of stopping the car in emergency situations. However, how effective is the sytem? According to Japan’s Traffic Accident Research and Data Analysis centre, very.
The Japanese automaker recently released data from a survey of traffic accidents involving Subaru vehicles in Japan from 2010 to 2014, where it was revealed that there has been a 61% reduction in crashes for vehicles equipped with the EyeSight system.
Furthermore, vehicles that had the collision avoidance system had 84% fewer rear-end collisions than those without (in terms of accidents per 10,000 vehicles). There were also 62% fewer vehicle-to-vehicle collisions and a 49% reduction in vehicle-to-pedestrian crashes, according to Subaru.
EyeSight is comprised of six technologies – Pre-collision Braking, Pre-collision Throttle Management, Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Departure & Sway Warning, Pre-collision Steering Assist and Lead Vehicle Start Alert. Unfortunately, no Subaru vehicles in Malaysia carry the same but it is standard on certain models in other markets.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with myTukar.
the very reason I crossed Subaru out of my list, always … otherwise a great product lineup
Just make it available in malaysia.. We all know it’s advantage
and here we are, still arguing the airbags count
Malaysians life is cheap apparently
Malaysians wud rather proudly die in their moving coffins than shamefully survive in a P1.
msian mind set:
1. brand
2. brand
3. brand
4. price
………..
10. safety
In short, you can’t tailgate with this car… ha ha
U know what? i heard the sales car ppl told me that the car sector as them no to include all this high tech things but price at the sector want? i dont know how true is that was?
that why malaysia car wont get the spec as other country have. if no proton and perodua die.
This tech is with Subaru many years ago, but, sadly, it is not available in Malaysia models.
We did pay for the Eyesight, we all pay tax.
The money went to pay Mata-mata and AES! Another type of eyeSight or Oversight.
AES apparently is a deterrent to speeding, which causes accident. Save lives too! Muahahaha…
