Overview of driver assist systems for the Golf GTI
The following driver assist systems are available for the different Golf GTI models:
Adaptive Cruise Control ACC
Side Assist (blindspot monitor)
With the optional Travel Assist you have an extremely useful driving assistant on board. It can keep you in your lane, maintain a minimum distance to the vehicle in front and the maximum speed you have set.
If your Golf GTI is fitted with Park Assist and Side Assist, Travel Assist can also actively support you when changing lanes on the motorway as an option.
Travel Assist also offers predictive cruise control and cornering assistance. Here, the vehicle speed can be adapted to applicable speed limits as well as road layouts (bends, roundabouts etc.).
Adaptive Cruise Control ACC helps you to maintain a previously set maximum speed and preset distance to the vehicle in front.
In combination with a navigation system, ACC is extended by predictive cruise control and cornering assistance. This means that ACC can adapt the vehicle’s speed to the relevant speed limits and the road layout (bends, roundabouts etc.).
The optional Side Assist can alert you to dangerous lane changes. An LED indicator in the exterior mirror tells you when a vehicle is in your blind spot or approaching quickly from behind.
