BMW X1 and iX1 can be equipped with Driving Assistant Plus. This camera- and radarbased system includes the Steering and Lane Control Assistant as well as Active Cruise Control (ACC) with Stop&Go function, which can both be used at speeds up to 210 km/h (130 mph). Corrective steering inputs help the driver to keep the vehicle in the lane detected by the system.
On motorways, the Steering and Lane Control Assistant in BMW X1 & iX1 can also help the driver to guide the car in situations where the lane narrows. The Active Navigation function detects when the vehicle needs to change lane in order to take a motorway exit and keep to the calculated route, and sets up the lane change. The system also features the Lane Keeping Assistant with active side collision protection. In Germany, traffic light recognition is also available when Active Cruise Control (ACC) is in use.
The automatic Speed Limit Assist for BMW X1 and BMW iX1 and route monitoring functions available when using Active Cruise Control add to the car’s Level 2 automated driving capabilities, as defined by SAE international standard J3016. Speed limits along the route detected either by the Speed Limit Info system or by using data from the navigation system can be anticipated in advance with the help of automatic Speed Limit Assist. Meanwhile, the route monitoring function also looks ahead to reduce the car’s speed as appropriate when approaching a corner, a roundabout, a junction or an exit.
All these systems works in the same way in BMW X2 and BMW iX2.
