LTA (Lane Tracing Assist)

While driving on a road with clear white (yellow) lane lines, the LTA system warns the driver if the vehicle may deviate from the current lane or course , and also can slightly operate the steering wheel to help avoid deviation from the lane or course . Also,  hile the dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range P.291 is operating, this system will operate the steering wheel to maintain the vehicle’s lane position. The LTA system recognizes white (yellow) lane lines or a course * using the front camera. Additionally,
it detects preceding vehicles using the front camera and radar.

• : Boundary between asphalt and the side of the road, such as grass, soil, or a curb

WARNING
