Safety and Driver Assistance
The 2024 Nissan Z emphasizes safety with a suite of advanced driver-assistance features designed to prevent accidents and protect occupants. It incorporates both active and passive safety components, ensuring a comprehensive approach to driver and passenger protection.
Active Safety Features
The Nissan Z’s active safety features are at the forefront of its design, these include technologies aimed at preventing collisions:
- Automatic Emergency Braking: It promptly detects the risk of a collision with a vehicle ahead and engages the brakes to prevent or mitigate an accident.
- Lane Departure Warning: Alerts the driver when the vehicle begins to drift out of its lane without a turn signal, enhancing safety on highways and preventing potential side collisions.
- Pedestrian Detection: Recognizes pedestrians in the vehicle’s path and activates emergency braking to avoid or lessen the severity of an impact.
- Blind Spot Warning: Monitors the blind spots and signals the driver of vehicles that may not be visible in the side mirrors, thereby reducing the risk of side-swipe incidents.
- Rear Cross Traffic Alert: Offers greater awareness while reversing, by detecting vehicles approaching from either side, a crucial feature in crowded parking areas.
Passive Safety Protocols
Passive safety protocols in the 2024 Nissan Z act as a second line of defense, engaging to minimize injury when a collision is unavoidable. It is equipped with:
- A robust suite of airbags, providing cushioning and protection to the occupants in the event of a crash.
- Crumple zones that absorb and dissipate the energy of an impact, reducing the force transmitted to the passenger compartment.
