Toyota Safety Sense

Designed to Keep You, Your Passengers, and All Who Share the Roads Safer

Standard on most models, Toyota Safety SenseTM (TSS) is an advanced suite of active safety features that are designed to support your awareness and decision-making across a range of speeds and driving conditions.

Peace of Mind Comes in Many Packages

TSS features can vary depending on the model you choose.


PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM

TSS-P – PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM WITH PEDESTRIAN DETECTION3

Pre-Collision System (PCS) provides collision avoidance or collision mitigation support in certain situations where a frontal collision is likely to occur, and in some cases, will automatically apply the brakes to help the driver. PCS can also help detect pedestrians in certain situations.

TSS 2.0 – PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM WITH DAYTIME/LOW-LIGHT VEHICLE AND PEDESTRIAN DETECTION, PLUS DAYTIME BICYCLE DETECTION3

PCS is also designed to help detect bicyclists in daytime situations, as well as vehicles and pedestrians in both daytime and low-light situations.

TSS 2.5+ & TSS 3.0 – PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM WITH PEDESTRIAN (DAYTIME & LOW-LIGHT) & DAYTIME BICYCLE DETECTION3, INTERSECTION SUPPORT & EMERGENCY STEERING ASSIST9

PCS in TSS 2.5+ and 3.0 may warn you of oncoming pedestrians or vehicles when making a left turn at an intersection, as well as an on-coming pedestrian when performing a right-hand turn and provide emergency braking in certain conditions. They also feature Emergency Steering Assist, which is designed to stabilize the driver’s emergency steering maneuver and keep the vehicle in its lane when avoiding pedestrian, cyclist or another vehicle under specific conditions. PCS is further enhanced with TSS 3.0 and adds intersection collision avoidance for crossing vehicles, low speed collision avoidance to prevent rear ending another vehicle. In certain situations it can also help detect motorcycles.


Lane Departure Alert

TSS-P – LANE DEPARTURE ALERT WITH STEERING ASSIST5

Lane Departure Alert (LDA) alerts you if you start to drift out of your lane when visible white/yellow lane markings are detected. Some models with TSS-P may include the Steering Assist function and may also provide small corrective steering inputs.

TSS 2.0 – LANE DEPARTURE ALERT WITH STEERING ASSIST AND ROAD EDGE DETECTION5

LDA for TSS 2.0 alerts you if you start to drift out of your lane when visible white/yellow lane markings, as well as road edges or curbs at certain speeds, are detected. Steering Assist may also provide gentle corrective steering inputs if action is not taken.

TSS 2.5+ AND 3.0 – LANE DEPARTURE ALERT WITH STEERING ASSIST AND ROAD EDGE DETECTION5

Lane Departure Alert for TSS 2.5+ and 3.0 alerts you if you start to drift out of your lane when visible white/yellow lane markings, as well as road edges or curbs at certain speeds, are detected. Steering Assist may also provide gentle corrective steering inputs if action is not taken. TSS 3.0 also adds Lane Change Assist.


DYNAMIC RADAR CRUISE CONTROL

TSS-P – DYNAMIC RADAR CRUISE CONTROL7

Intended for highway use, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC), can automatically adjust your vehicle speed to maintain a preset following distance between you and the vehicle directly in front of you. The system is designed to work between speeds of approximately 40 km/h to 180 km/h.

TSS 2.0 – FULL SPEED RANGE DYNAMIC RADAR CRUISE CONTROL7

Full Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control can also perform vehicle-to-vehicle distance control down to 0 km/h, and resume from a complete stop.

TSS 2.5+ AND 3.0 – FULL SPEED DYNAMIC RADAR CRUISE CONTROL WITH CURVE SPEED MANAGEMENT7

DRCC in TSS 2.5+ and 3.0 is enhanced with a Curve Speed Management function that will determine if the vehicle speed needs to be reduced when approaching a curve on the road and decelerate automatically when driving through a curve if required. TSS 3.0 also adds Front Cross Traffic Alert.


LANE TRACING ASSIST

TSS 2.0 – LANE TRACING ASSIST8

In models with Lane Tracing Assist (LTA), LTA works with Dynamic Radar Cruise Control to keep the vehicle centered in its visibly marked lane and preemptively avoid unintended lane departures.

TSS 2.5+ AND 3.0 – LANE TRACING ASSIST WITH ENHANCED LINE & ROAD RECOGNITION8

On vehicles equipped with TSS 2.5+ and 3.0 the lane recognition performance may now recognize the line of travel in situations where road markings may have been temporarily interrupted.


AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM

TSS-PTSS 2.0TSS 2.5+TSS 3.0, – AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM6

All TSS packages feature Automatic High Beam (AHB) headlamps. The system reacts to oncoming headlamps or preceding taillamps, automatically switching from high-beam to low-beam and then back again once the coast is clear.


Disclaimers

1Drivers should always be responsible for their own safe driving. Please always pay attention to your surroundings and drive safely. Depending on the conditions of roads, vehicles, weather, etc., the TSS systems may not work as intended. Please see toyota.ca, your local Toyota Dealer or Owner’s Manual for details.

3The Pre-Collision System (PCS) is designed to determine if impact is imminent and help reduce impact speed and damage in certain frontal collisions involving a vehicle, a pedestrian, bicyclist or motorcyclist. It is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving. System effectiveness depends on many factors, such as speed, size and position of vehicle, pedestrian, bicyclist or motorcyclist and weather, light and road conditions. See Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and details.

5Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist is designed to read visible lane markers under certain conditions. It provides a visual and audible alert and slight steering force when lane departure is detected. It is not a collision-avoidance system or a substitute for safe and attentive driving. Effectiveness is dependent on many factors including road, weather and vehicle conditions. See Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and details.

6Automatic High Beams operate at speeds above 34 km/h. Factors such as a dirty windshield, weather, lighting and terrain limit effectiveness, requiring the driver to manually operate the high beams. See Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and details.

7 Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC) is designed to assist the driver and is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving practices. System effectiveness is dependent on many factors including road, weather and traffic conditions. Vehicles with manual transmission have regular DRCC. See Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and details.

The Lane Tracing Assist lane centering function is designed to read visible lane markers and detect other vehicles under certain conditions. It is only operational when DRCC is engaged. Not available on vehicles with manual transmissions. See Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and details

Intersection Turning Assist System
The Intersection Turning Assist system is designed to detect a pedestrian or approaching vehicle at intersections under certain conditions, determine if impact is imminent and help reduce impact speed. It is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving. System effectiveness depends on many factors, such as speed, type of turning maneuver, intersection layout, size and position of pedestrian and weather, light and road conditions. See Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and details.
