Happy Tech Tuesday everyone! Today we are looking at Nissan's Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC). This works like a standard cruise control, only with the added feature of maintaining a selected distance from the vehicle in front of you. The distance to the vehicle ahead can be selected at any time depending on the traffic conditions. How does this works? It's very simple really. Each time the distance switch is pushed, the set distance will change to long, medium, short and back to long again.The distance to the vehicle ahead will change according to the vehicle speed. The higher the vehicle speed, the longer the distance.If the vehicle in front is traveling slower than your set speed, the ICC will automatically match that vehicle's speed. Once the road ahead clears, the ICC will resume your set speed automatically. When the road ahead is clear, the driver can set the speed range between approximately 20 to 90 miles per hour. This awesome technology is pushing vehicles into the future of car ownership, and is making every day actions more stress free.

Happy Tech Tuesday everyone! Today we are looking into the Smart Auto Headlights system. This system detects illumination outside the vehicle using a front sensor. When light decreases below a certain level, the system automatically turns the lights on. The system also automatically turns on headlights and position lights. Since it removes the necessity to manually turn lights on or off, you won't need to operate a switch when entering an underground car park or tunnel. It is aligned with the ignition key, meaning the lights will automatically go out when the engine is turned off. This protects against forgetting to turn off lights after parking.#techtuesday #nissantechnology
