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.

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.
