Assistance systems
Audi pre sense basic
Networking the different vehicle systems enables
driving situations to be categorised and, where
necessary, actions to be implemented for preventive
occupant protection. These include: belt tensioner,
activating the hazard warning system and closing the
windows and – if fitted – sliding roof
adaptive cruise control with Stop&Go function
including Audi pre sense front
automatic distance control (control range 0–250 km/h);
working within system limits, it uses 2 radar sensors
and a camera to detect vehicles ahead and maintains
the distance by automatic braking and accelerating;
independent braking to a stop, automated restart at
driver’s request; 4 distance levels and 4 driving modes
(efficiency, comfort, dynamic and standard) can be
selected individually. The use of Audi connect services
is possible in conjunction with MMI navigation plus
with MMI touch: the navigation system stores route
data such as the sweep of bends and corners or road
classifications allowing comfortable distance control,
for instance when driving the same winding roads once
again. In addition to the functions of Audi pre sense
basic, Audi pre sense front implements preventive
occupant protection measures when threatened with
an imminent frontal collision; includes Audi braking
guard with driver warning through an extended brake
assist feature and preventive occupant protection.
Working within system limits, Audi pre sense front
uses the front sensors of adaptive cruise control with
Stop&Go function for the detection. Extended by the
function of maximum deceleration: this is initiated at
speeds below 30 km/h if there is a danger of collision
with a stationary or moving vehicle in order to reduce
the severity of the collision or to avoid this collision if
possible.
Cruise control
at speeds of 30 km/h to 250 km/h and above, the
system keeps the set speed constant, provided that
engine power and engine braking effect permit it;
operated via separate steering column stalk, set speed
displayed in driver information system
Audi side assist including Audi pre sense rear
lane change assistant, within system limits, assists
the driver when changing lanes (operating range
30–
250 km/h). Displays are incorporated into both
exterior
mirrors. Audi side assist uses 2 radar sensors
to measure the vehicle’s distance from other vehicles
it has detected as well as the speed difference
between them. If Audi side assist deems that the
speed
difference and distance will compromise a lane
change,
a display will appear in the respective exterior
mirror. In addition to the functions of Audi pre sense
basic, Audi pre sense rear, working within system
limits, uses the rear sensors of Audi side assist to
detect a possible rear-end collision.
Audi active lane assist
lane compliance assistant; supports the driver within
system limits comfortably in keeping in the lane
(operating range 60–250 km/h); if the system is
activated and ready and the driver did not indicate,
the Audi active lane assist will guide the vehicle within
recognised lane boundary lines by means of gentle,
corrective steering intervention; the driver can choose
whether he would like to be supported continuously or
just shortly before crossing the road marking (choice
of earlier or later steering time); additional steering
wheel vibration can be adjusted if the driver wishes;
additional display in the head-up display (can be ordered
as an option)
Assistance package including Audi pre sense plus
The assistance package contains the functions of the
following assistance systems:
▪ adaptive cruise control with Stop&Go function
▪ Audi active lane assist
▪ Audi side assist
▪ parking system plus
▪ Audi pre sense front
▪ Audi pre sense rear
The features of Audi pre sense basic, Audi pre sense
front and Audi pre sense rear are extended by the
function of a maximum deceleration to Audi pre sense
plus: in addition to the functions of Audi pre sense
front, Audi pre sense plus activates the Audi braking
guard in certain situations in which a collision is
unavoidable and initiates maximum deceleration
to minimise the impact speed of the crash by up to
40 km/h.
Hold assist
holds the vehicle stationary for unlimited periods after
stopping on almost all uphill and downhill gradients.
The system is activated by push-button and allows the
driver to drive away easily and comfortably.
Night vision assistant
with marking of detected pedestrians
with integrated thermal imaging camera; when driving
at night, this system extends the driver’s range of
visibility beyond the light provided by the dipped
beam; records thermal images; an image processing
algorithm then evaluates the camera’s data and
highlights any persons it has detected in yellow in the
optional driver information system’s colour display;
the marking changes to red and a warning tone is
emitted if the system, by analysing the movement and
position of the person it has detected, considers that
there is a possible risk. In conjunction with one of
the following lighting systems, the person is also
illuminated with 3 successive brief flashes of the
headlights (marking light): xenon plus in conjunction
with high-beam assist, Audi adaptive light including
variable headlight range control or LED headlights.
Additional warning symbol in the head-up display
(can be ordered as an option); image quality is affected
by poor ambient conditions
