Browse Our Inventory Chevrolet's safety features have gotten increasingly better over the years. Every model in the 2024 Chevy lineup, available from your Glenview, IL Chevy dealer, has standard or available driver assistance features to keep you safer. The advanced technologies essentially act like an extra pair of eyes watching the road, and with the alerts from these technologies, you have more time to respond in emergencies. Let’s Take A Closer Look at the 2024 Chevy Lineup at Your Glenview, IL Dealer Emergency Braking Automatic Emergency Braking and Front Pedestrian Braking can both automatically stop your car if you're in danger of getting into a collision. The former works with Forward Collision Alert, which sends you an alert when you may crash into a car or pedestrian in front of you. This makes it easier for you and your passengers to avoid collisions and remain safe. more Lane Keep Assist Unintentionally leaving your lane puts you in danger of colliding with vehicles heading in your direction, colliding with drivers on the highway who don't expect you to enter their lane, and colliding with vehicles sideways while you're drifting. With Lane Keep Assist, your car will tell you when you're drifting before you enter the next lane without intending to, letting you and your passengers avoid a very dangerous situation. Following Distance Indicator Other drivers are unpredictable and may stop at any time. This makes it difficult to gauge how closely you should be following them. Your Chevy can display the number of seconds it would take for you to collide with the car in front of you if that car were to stop driving. This lets you ensure you always have enough time to safely stop your car when necessary, keeping you and your passengers safe from colliding with the driver ahead. Adaptive Cruise Control Fatigue is a major threat for drivers, as it can make you lose focus. Drowsy and unfocused driving can easily endanger you and your passengers. Adaptive Cruise Control aims to give you a small break from concentrating on some aspects of driving, giving you time to refresh. It allows you to select how closely you want to follow the car ahead of you, and then it controls your speed to maintain that distance while you steer. If this helps you avoid fatigue, then it can reduce the likelihood that you'll get into an accident caused by inattentive driving. Rear Park Assist It can be hard to tell how close you are to objects while you're reversing, so Rear Park Assist provides alerts if there are objects close behind you. This helps keep you and your passengers safe by reducing the likelihood that you'll collide with something while backing into or out of a parking space.

The 2024 Chevy Blazer EV, available at your Glenview, IL Chevy dealer, is MotorTrend's SUV of the year. To be awarded this title, it needs to excel in six areas, and one of those areas is safety. It does stand out in terms of safety; it's equipped with Front Pedestrian Braking, convenient Intellibeam Auto High Beams, helpful Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Automatic Emergency Braking, Forward Collision Alert, and a Following Distance Indicator. 2024 Chevy Blazer EV Available at Your Glenview, IL Dealer Forward Collision Alert It's always nice to know you have a second pair of eyes on the road, and that's what you have with the collision alert feature. Your car will send you an alert if it thinks you're about to hit the vehicle ahead of you. This can give you time to hit the brakes and avoid a crash. more Automatic Emergency Braking Sometimes you won't have time to react when it seems like you're about to collide with another driver. The Blazer EV automatically applies the brakes to help prevent or reduce the impact of a collision. You should still try to hit the brakes yourself, but if you don't get there in time, then your car will do its best to keep you safe. Front Pedestrian Braking Pedestrians can be unpredictable and often distracted, so a pedestrian might dart out in front of your moving car, making a collision imminent. Your car is always ready for this to happen when you're driving at speeds between 5 and 50 mph, though; it can detect a pedestrian that you may be about to hit and send you a warning. It works in combination with the emergency braking and can activate the brakes if you don't have time to respond to the alert. Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning There are many reasons a driver might accidentally drift into the wrong lane, including improper wheel alignment, drowsiness, and difficulty seeing the lane lines. Your car monitors the lane lines to help you stay on your side of the road. The car will turn your steering wheel briefly if it notices you're unintentionally drifting into the next lane. Following Distance Indicator Staying a safe distance behind the car ahead can be difficult at times, especially when the car ahead keeps varying its speed. The following distance feature gives you a real-time estimate of how long it'd take you to crash if the car ahead of you stopped. That helps you maintain a safe following distance and know when to adjust your speed to maintain that distance. Intellibeam Auto High Beams Your car can turn your high beams on and off as needed when you're driving at speeds over 25 mph. This is both wonderfully convenient and a great help when it comes to safety. Impressed by what you've read? Come and take this ultra-safe car out for a test drive or any of our other models at Jennings Chevrolet.
