Volkswagen IQ.Drive

Nearly every model in the Volkswagen lineup offers IQ.Drive, a safety-enhancing tech suite that includes everything you need for extra peace of mind on your Noblesville travels. See some of the advanced Volkswagen technology available through IQ.Drive in the breakdown below:

 

  • Travel Assist: Travel Assist combines the functions of Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Keep Assist to help reduce fatigue during long-distance travel. 
  • Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC): Using sensors to detect the vehicle ahead, Adaptive Cruise Control adjusts your speed and manages your following distance, allowing you to keep up with the flow of Indianapolis traffic. 
  • Active Blind Spot Monitor: The Active Blind Spot Monitor watches for vehicles hiding in your blind spots, alerting you and automatically counter-steering to avoid a collision when necessary. 
  • Rear Traffic Alert: Reversing out of a tight parking spot or backing out of your driveway? The Rear Traffic Alert monitors the back of your vehicle, alerting you and hitting the brakes if a collision is imminent. 
  • Front Assist: Even with our eyes on the Avon roads, unexpected incidents can occur. That’s why Front Assist monitors the road ahead of your vehicle, checking for other cars, pedestrians, or cyclists, to identify and mitigate the risk of collision. 
  • Emergency Assist: In the event of a serious incident that affects your ability to drive, Emergency Assist will bring your VW to a safe stop and contact assistance. 
  • Lane Assist: Lane Assist utilizes a camera-based system to prevent your vehicle from going over traffic lines.
