Front Assist with Braking: 2016 Passat NMS
When the risk of a collision is identified, the brake system is prefilled. The triggering threshold for the brake assist system is
lowered, and the driver is warned visually and acoustically. Additionally, an automatic jolt of the brakes warns the driver of the
danger.
If the driver reacts by braking too gently, the vehicle automatically generates the brake pressure required for the situation.
If the driver fails to react to the warning jolt at speeds above 18 mph (30 km/h), the Front Assist system decelerates the vehicle
by braking automatically. This helps to avoid a collision in the best case scenario or, at the very least, to reduce the severity of
the accident.
