Safety features are often the deciding factor when choosing a new car. That’s why Toyota strives to make their vehicles as safe as possible with many of the latest features in the industry. The world’s largest automaker has created the STAR Safety System which includes a number of common safety features that many of the current models have in its lineup. Here are some of the features included with Toyota’s STAR Safety System.
• Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) – This safety feature helps keep the front wheels and the rear wheels from slipping so the driver can regain control of the vehicle when road conditions are less than ideal.
• Traction Control – This feature applies the wheel’s brakes individually and reduces engine output in slippery conditions.
• Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) – This is a feature that has been around for many years, but Toyota has perfected it to make it even better. It comes standard on all Toyota SUVs and it keeps the wheels from locking up when braking in emergency situations.
• Brake Assist (BA) – This system applies extra pressure on the brakes in emergency situations so you can stop with shorter distances and more effectively.
These are just some of the safety features you can expect to find on many Toyota cars and SUVs. Visit a Doylestown area Toyota dealer today to get a vehicle with these features designed to keep you and your family safe.
