The 2020 Toyota Rav4 is among the top best selling vehicles in 2020. It is ranked 5th with over 180,000 units sold in the first half of the year. What makes the new RAV4 so desirable is its cutting-edge safety features. The SUV safety features are graded superior by the IHS in both crashworthiness and standard safety. more Front and Rear Parking Assist While parking assists have become standard features in current vehicles, the Toyota RAV4 takes it a notch higher with front and rear parking assist features. The parking assist also comes with an automated braking system to avoid any accidental crashes when hurriedly trying to park your vehicle. The smart parking assist also warns you (with sounds and visuals) of any objects, cars, and obstacles blocking your path as you try to park. This safety feature helps protect your vehicle from any accidental hits. Blind Spot Monitor The 2020 Toyota RAV4 also has a blind spot monitor that alerts the driver of any vehicles (and sometimes pedestrians) on either side of the vehicle's blind spot. The blind spot also works hand in hand with a rear cross-traffic alert that warns the driver of any approaching vehicles when switching lanes, reversing the car, or taking sharp turns in an area full of traffic. To further improve safety and improve driver efficiency, the warning alerts are broadcasted to the car's primary monitor as well as the car's side mirror, which lights up incessantly. Vehicle Stability Control The enhanced vehicle stability control is a part of a suite of smart safety features labeled 'star safety.' The safety of any vehicle is highly dependent on how it handles at top speeds. The new VSC technology from Toyota helps improve handling and, subsequently, the safety of the car. The VSC keeps all wheels grounded firmly and avoids fishtailing when taking sharp turns. It also enhances traction as the tech detects any wheel imbalances and rectifies them via the ABS. Smart Stop Technology This technology is a part of the Toyota safety sense 2.0. Have you ever panicked, and instead of making an emergency stop, you hit the accelerator instead? Toyota designed the smart-stop technology specifically for such occasions – in case you hit the brake and gas pedals at the same time, the vehicle will automatically stop. The smart stop feature is also made more effective by the collision avoidance sensors and the pedestrian detection features. Eight Airbags The new Toyota RAV4 is equipped with eight airbags that lessen the crash impact in case the car is involved in an accident. The vehicle has extra-strengthened driver and front passenger airbags, side airbags for the driver and the front passenger, and curtain airbags for the passengers at the back. It also has extra knee airbags for the driver designed to lessen any crash impact that would otherwise break the driver's legs Would you like to upgrade to an SUV that guarantees your safety and that of your passengers?
