All-new SEAT Leon - Advanced driving assistance systems

The fourth generation of the SEAT Leon is the safest vehicle the brand has ever developed, thanks not only to its level of passive safety, but also, in particular, to the integration of a state-of-the-art suite of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).

The aim is not only to protect passengers in case of an accident, but also to prevent accidents from occurring.

That is why these systems are always alert and monitor the car's environment with images and data gathered by a camera, as well as ultrasonic and radar sensors.

Thanks to it, the new SEAT Leon can react when facing obstacles on the road or sudden movements of other drivers, and provide effective driver assistance when necessary, alerting drivers to a dangerous situation or minimising the risk or consequences of an accident.

Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), which represent the first step towards autonomous driving, not only provide a significant increase in active safety: they also improve driving quality and comfort in daily traffic situations.

These systems assist the driver via light and acoustic signals, as well as vibration through the steering wheel, depending on the assistant.

The vehicle is also capable of avoiding or minimising a dangerous situation by corrections in the steering wheel and autonomous braking, even without human intervention.
