Hyundai Elantra: Driving Safety / Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA)
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
is designed to help detect and monitor
approaching vehicles in the driver’s
blind spot area and warn the driver
of a possible collision with a warning
message and audible warning.
In addition, if there is a risk of collision
when changing lanes or driving forward
out of a parking space, the system will
help avoid a collision by applying the
brake.
