The 7-seater SUV deserves an award for the emergency braking system alone, for which the Euro NCAP Advanced has assigned a safety level of 94%.
In an emergency, the system not only creates the necessary tension of the seat belts, but also automatically closes the windows and the hatch before a potential collision.
Brakes are activated only in the event of an accident, so as not to cause the car to skid or further collisions with other vehicles. Another key safety ‘watchman’ of the model is the ‘Audi pre sense city’ assistant, included into the basic equipment. It warns of danger and launches emergency braking.
If the arrow of the speedometer exceeds 85 km/h, the system begins to monitor the road situation, analyzing the position of other participants in the traffic.
If there’s a real threat of a collision, the system in several stages signals a threat, starting with warning braking, gradually moving to emergency one.
