Auto braking after a collision
In the event of a collision in which the activa-
tion level is reached for the pyrotechnic seat-
belt tensioners or airbags, or if a collision
with a large animal is detected, the car's
brakes are automatically applied. This func-
tion is to prevent or reduce the effects of any
subsequent collision.
After a serious collision there is a risk that it is
no longer possible to control and steer the car.
In order to avoid or mitigate a possible further
collision with a vehicle or an object in the vehi-
cle's path, the auto braking system is acti-
vated automatically and brakes the car in a
safe manner.
Brake lights and hazard warning lights are
activated during braking. When the car has
stopped, the hazard warning lights continue to
flash and the parking brake is applied.
If braking is not appropriate, e.g. if there is a
risk of being hit by following traffic, the sys-
tem can be overridden by the driver depress-
ing the accelerator pedal.
The function assumes that the brake system is
intact after the collision.

Gearbox
The gearbox is part of the car's powertrain
(power transmission) between engine and
drive wheels. The function of the gearbox is
to change the gear ratio depending on speed
and power requirements.
The car has an eight-speed automatic gear-
box, and an electric motor for rear-wheel drive.
The number of gear changes means that the
engine's torque and power range can be used
effectively. Two of the gears are overdrive
gears that save fuel when driving at constant
engine speed. It is also possible to select
gears manually. The driver display shows
which gear position is currently in use.
