Posted on April 16, 2021
Standard on all Toyota vehicles, Star Safety SystemTMÂ features six accident avoidance technologies to enhance your vehicle's stability, braking, and traction.
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)
ABS helps prevent brakes from locking up by pulsing brake pressure to each wheel to help you stay in control in emergency braking situations.
Brake Assist (BA)
Brake Assist is designed to detect sudden or "panic" braking and then add the full pressure needed to help prevent a collision.
Smart Stop Technology
This advanced technology automatically cuts engine power and allows the brakes to take precedence over the accelerator when both pedals are pressed at the same time.
Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)
VSC helps prevent wheel slip and loss of traction by reducing engine power and applying brake force to the wheels that need it.
Traction Control (TRAC)
Traction Control helps maintain traction on wet, icy, loose or uneven surfaces by applying brake force to the spinning wheel(s).
Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD)
Toyota's ABS technology has Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) to help keep the vehicle more stable and balanced when braking..
