A new generation of the acc is used in the
Audi A6 Avant `05. This acc incorporates the
following modifications:
the exterior dimensions and weight of the acc unit
(sender and control unit) were substantially
reduced.
adaptive cruise control (acc)
The number of radar transceivers integrated into the sender was increased from three to four.
As a result, it was possible to increase the beam angle from 8 degrees to 16 degrees. By increasing the range
of the sensor, objects in the path of the vehicle can be detected earlier. The maximum range of the object
detector was increased to 180 metres from 150 metres. The acc functionality was significantly improved with
regard to lane-changing and winding country roads.
