Audi side assist including Audi pre sense rear*. Displays are integrated into
the exterior mirrors. Operational from a vehicle speed of 30km/h, Audi side
assist uses 2 radar sensors (with a range of approx. 70 m) to measure the
vehicle’s distance from other detected vehicles, as well as the speed
difference between them. If Audi side assist classifies the speed difference
and distance as being critical in the event of a lane change manoeuvre, a
display will appear in the respective exterior mirror (information stage).
This display will only be noticed by looking at the exterior mirrors. When the
indicator is on and Audi side assist detects a vehicle approaching and rates
the situation as critical, the relevant display on the exterior mirror flashes
repeatedly (warning stage). The brightness of the display can be set to 1 of
5 levels in the MMI.
Please note: the systems can only work within system limits. They can be of assistance,
but drivers are still required to be attentive at all times.
* Optional equipment.
