The 2019 QX50 boasts a number of fabulous features, including its blind spot sensor. Perhaps you’ve heard of other vehicles with this technology. You might have a general sense as to what this means without understanding it in full. Here are some basics about the amenity.
INFINITIs with blind spot sensors are working hard for your protection one hundred percent of the time. They boast a device that tracks traffic behind and alongside you. Using ultrasonic or radar on the sides and rear of the SUV, this safety feature keeps tabs on other cars, until they are no longer in your way.
The idea behind this technology is to prevent you from inadvertently moving into a position already occupied by another vehicle. This is all too easy to do when the car is in your blind spot, hence the need for these sensors (and the reason for their name).
You’ll be alerted via an indicator light on your side mirror whenever there is a vehicle in your blind spot. This way, when you check before switching lanes, you’ll know immediately whether or not it is safe to do so.
Intrigued? Stop by INFINITI of Tacoma today and test drive the fabulous 2019 QX50, filled with assistive technologies like blind spot monitoring. You’ll love everything about it!
