BMW introduces Motorway Assistant with UN approval for enhanced driver assistance
BMW's iX3 will feature new driver-assistance tech, allowing hands-free driving at speeds up to 130 km/h
BMW is enhancing its driver assistance systems with the "Motorway Assistant" for the new BMW iX3, which will be available in multiple European countries following the company receiving approval in accordance with UN Regulation No. 171 for Driver Control Assistance Systems (DCAS). This regulation provides a framework focusing on customer safety for Level 2 driver assistance systems. The Motorway Assistant allows drivers to take their hands off the steering wheel at speeds up to 130 km/h while maintaining attentiveness. It aids vehicle guidance and enables automatic lane changes confirmed by a glance. Additionally, it integrates active BMW Maps route guidance to suggest lane changes before exits.
