Emergency Lane Keeping (ELK)

The ELK is a system designed to assist the driver’s steering wheel operation to avoid danger.

The ELK has the following 3 functions.

Road Keep Assist

The Road Keep Assist assists the driver to avoid departure from the road.

If your vehicle may be deviating from the road, the Road Keep Assist provides steering assistance to avoid departure from the road. In addition, a screen display and a warning sound notify the driver of the danger.

Blind Spot Assist (Some Models)

The Blind Spot Assist assists the driver in avoiding collisions with vehicles in adjacent lanes (excluding vehicles approaching in the opposite direction).

If there is a possibility of a collision with a vehicle in an adjacent lane when you try to change lanes or if you may deviate from your lane, the Blind Spot Assist assists your steering wheel operation to keep you in the driving lane. In addition, a screen display and a warning sound notify the driver of the danger.

Head-on traffic avoidance assist (Some Models)

The Head-on traffic avoidance assist assists you in avoiding a collision with a vehicle approaching in the oncoming lane and your vehicle.

If there is a possibility of a collision with a vehicle approaching in the oncoming lane due to your vehicle departing from its lane, the Head-on traffic avoidance assist assists your steering wheel operation to keep you in the original driving lane. In addition, a screen display and a warning sound notify the driver of the danger.
