Staying safe on the road is important to everybody, and the vehicles you'll find at our dealership are some of the safest on the market. Check out the guide below for some information on how the latest innovations in Mitsubishi safety features help you meet your goal of keeping yourself and your passengers safe at all times.

Multi-Around View Monitor

Safety starts with awareness of your surroundings, and the Multi-Around View Monitor gives you a greater ability to see what's around your vehicle than ever before. Cameras on the front, rear, and sides of the vehicle work together to eliminate blind spots, making it that much easier to pull off tricky maneuvers like pulling into a tight parking space.

Rear Cross Traffic Alert

Not only does Mitsubishi driver assistance technology help you pull into a tight space, but it will also help you back out safely thanks to the Rear Cross Traffic Alert feature. Sensors detect when a vehicle is moving into the area behind your vehicle, triggering alert lights on the side mirrors and an audible warning. That gives you a heads-up so you can pull out when the way is clear.

Trailer Stability Assist System

When you're hauling something hitched up to your vehicle, trailer sway can create dangerous conditions for yourself and those around you. The Trailer Stability Assist System reduces the risk of this situation, applying automatic brakes to individual wheels to keep your trailer steady throughout the ride.

Adaptive Cruise Control

One common hazard drivers face is other vehicles stopping suddenly ahead of them, creating the risk of a collision. Adaptive cruise control helps you stay one step ahead of this danger. By managing your cruising speed based on the flow of traffic around you, this feature helps to make sure you always have time to react to a sudden change of conditions around you.

RISE Body Construction

While there are many features in your Mitsubishi that prevent an accident from occurring, the smart design of these vehicles also accounts for the worst case scenario when a collision does happen. That's where RISE, or Reinforced Impact Safety Evolution, Body Construction comes into play. Reducing the force of impact through well laid-out crumple zones throughout the vehicle, this feature helps to reduce the risk of injury to mitigate the risk of a frightening event.

The peace of mind these driver assistance features provide is a priceless asset for any driver. Our experts can tell you even more about the safety features that our Mitsubishi vehicles come equipped with. Come on down to Alan Webb Nissan in Kingsport, TN today to get the information you need!
