Nissan Driver-Assist Technology Features

With all your driving and the unpredictability of pedestrians, delivery trucks, bikers, and other drivers, added peace of mind is always welcome. Luckily, Nissan vehicles come equipped with highly advanced driver-assist technology features as part of the Nissan Safety Shield® 360 suite.

This suite uses cameras, sensors, and other monitoring features to constantly scan a range around your vehicle in search of hazards you may have missed. The features can then send an audible and visual alert so you can make any necessary adjustments.

Under certain conditions, the features included with Nissan Safety Shield® 360 may provide mild autonomous capabilities to provide braking and steering support.

Features included with Nissan Safety Shield® 360 include:

• Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection
• Lane Departure Warning
• Blind Spot Warning
• Rear Cross Traffic Alert
• And more

You can upgrade to include the optional features of Nissan intelligent driving, such as ProPILOT Assist, for even more safety features. This feature uses intuitive technology to keep a safe distance between you and the vehicle ahead of you. It also uses the marked lines of your lane to help keep your vehicle centered, even when driving on gentle curves.

Nissan Eco-Friendly Technology Features

Nissan is dedicated to investing in green technologies that help cars, people, and the environment coexist harmoniously. From reducing emissions created during manufacturing to working toward zero-emission vehicles, Nissan is at the forefront of environmental technology.

Some of the features you can find with current Nissan models include:

• Eco Mode: Many Nissan vehicles come equipped with selectable drive modes. Eco Mode is popular since it maximizes the vehicle’s fuel efficiency. It does so by adjusting throttle response, air conditioning, and other non-essential functions to help conserve as much fuel as possible.
• XTRONIC CVT® (Continuously Variable Transmission): The XTRONIC CVT® does not have set gear ratios. Rather, the transmission can constantly adjust its performance capabilities. This lets the transmission make instant adjustments, so it always operates in the lowest gear possible, which can help increase fuel economy.
• Intelligent All-Wheel Drive (AWD): This advanced system constantly monitors the conditions of the road. The vehicle can automatically turn on AWD capabilities when low-friction surfaces are detected. When extra traction is no longer needed, the vehicle will return to 2-wheel drive, which uses less fuel.

The burning of fossil fuels that occurs each time you take the wheel accounts for an estimated 73 percent of greenhouse gas emissions. These fuel-saving technology features help improve the environment since it requires you to refuel less often.

If you want to take your environmental impact even further, consider driving one of the all-electric vehicles (EVs) produced by Nissan: the Nissan ARIYA or the Nissan LEAF. Both come with eco-friendly technology to create zero tailpipe emissions and charge your vehicle at home or on the go.
