What are the Toyota Safety Suites?

All new Toyota models come with one of a handful of Toyota Safety Sense features. The TSS 2.5 suite has advanced features to protect the driver, passengers, and nearby pedestrians and cyclists. It uses radar, cameras, and sensors to alert the driver to potential dangers and reduce the risk of accidents.

Toyota also includes the Toyota Star Safety System with six active technologies that keep drivers in control and out of collisions. The Toyota Star Safety System comes with Vehicle Stability Control, Traction Control, an Anti-Lock Brake System, and Electronic Brake-Force Distribution.
