Toyota Safety Sense will be standard on most Toyota’s

On March 21^st, 2016, Toyota announced that, beginning with the 2018 model year, it would make Toyota Safety Sense (TSS) and Lexus Safety System+ (LSS+) standard on almost every Toyota and Lexus trim level in the United States.

The systems are anchored by automatic emergency breaking, which means Toyota is making that technology available four years ahead of the 2022 industry target announced last week by the federal government.

Already available as a low-cost option on a broad range of Toyota and Lexus vehicles, TSS and LSS+ are designed to help address three key areas of crash protection:

• preventing or mitigating frontal collisions
• keeping drivers within their lane
• enhancing road safety during nighttime driving.

“At Toyota, we are committed to creating better ways to move for everyone,” said Jim Lentz, President and CEO of Toyota Motor North America. Click here for the full story: http://toyotanewsroom.com/releases/lexus+toyota+automated+braking+standard+2017.htm
