The Surrey highways can often prove more challenging to navigate than the backroads - with stop-and-go traffic testing the skill (and patience) of drivers. This is why Jeep has paired its 2020 Cherokee with exclusive LaneSense technology: promoting safer travels in BC.
At the front of the new Cherokee sits a camera-based sensor. This system continually scans the road, assessing both lane markers and vehicle trajectory in real time. Should the platform suddenly drift away from its correct alignment - with no turn signal being used - a series of actions will occur.
Â
One: A visual warning in the instrument cluster will be released, alerting the driver to the deviation.
Two: If no action is taken to correct the issue, a secondary visual warning will be given; and this will be coupled with a slight vibration to the steering wheel.
Three: If still no action is taken, the Cherokee will automatically engage its Lane Assist function and gently correct positioning without driver input. This combines both steering and acceleration adjustments to assure a safe trajectory change.
These protocols ensure optimal alignments in Surrey - with the Cherokee avoiding sudden lane drifts and potential collisions. To learn more about this safety feature (or to schedule a test-drive in one of our available Jeep models) contact us today.
