1
Pre-Collision System (PCS)
[1]
Using a radar unit located in the vehicle’s front
grille, PCS monitors the position of the vehicle
relative to other vehicles and certain objects in
the road directly ahead. If PCS determines
that a collision is imminent, the Brake Assist
(BA)
[2]
system is placed in standby mode, a
warning is displayed and a buzzer sounds.
If PCS determines that a collision is unavoidable,
the system will still alert the driver via a warning
light, warning display and buzzer, apply the
brakes and automatically retract the driver and
front passenger seatbelts to help prepare for
such a scenario.
2
Crumple Zones
An important element of occupant protection,
crumple zones are structurally engineered to
absorb and dissipate the energy of a collision by
a process known as controlled deformation.
3
Side-Impact Door Beams
To help provide extra occupant protection
when the vehicle is struck from the side, steel
beams are located inside all doors and
designed to absorb energy and reduce the
chance of intrusion into the cabin.
4
Active Front Headrests
[3]
In certain lower-speed, rear-end collisions, a
bracket and cable system in the lower region of
the front seats trigger the upward movement
of the headrests to help position them to the
back of the occupants’ heads.
5
Ten Airbags
[4]
and More
Land Cruiser comes with ten standard airbags
that cover every row of seats and include driver
and front passenger knee airbags. The front seats
also incorporate active front headrests, which
can help reduce the severity of whiplash injuries.
