7 Speed DSG
Emergency Assist including Emergency Lane Change Assist3
The Arteon is the first Volkswagen to be equipped with the incredibly advanced second-generation Emergency Assist system. The system senses if there is no driver feedback or response, it will first try to alert the driver with warning gongs and brake jolts before engaging the hazard warning lights to alert other road users. The system will then safely change lanes by indicating and moving to the far-left lane or emergency lane autonomously, before bringing the vehicle to a safe stop automatically.3

Pedestrian Monitoring3
Whether you're negotiating busy urban roads or stop-and-go traffic, the Arteon is always keeping an eye out. The City Emergency Brake with Pedestrian Monitoring function uses a radar sensor in the vehicle to detect when something suddenly enters your vehicle's path without warning. It firstly gives an acoustic and visual signal to warn the driver, then prepares the vehicle for hard braking. If the driver fails to react, the system automatically performs emergency braking.

Proactive Occupant Protection System3
Using the car’s built-in sensors, the Arteon can detect potential accidents both in front and behind the vehicle. If a potential accident is detected, the system warns the driver with an alarm and other road users by flashing the hazard lights. Then the front seat belts are automatically tensioned to protect the driver and passenger, and any open windows or sunroof are closed except for a small crack to allow for optimal conditions for airbag deployment.

Manoeuvre Braking3
Built to assist parking, even in the tightest of spaces. Manoeuvre Braking - front and rear – is designed to avoid or reduce the likelihood of a collision by automatically braking if an obstacle is detected by the parking sensors.

Front Assist with City Emergency Brake3
Using a radar sensor, Front Assist detects a possible collision with the vehicle in front. It will warn you and prepare the car for braking. If nothing changes, it applies the brakes giving you a better chance of avoiding or minimising a collision. When you’re travelling below 30km/h, City Emergency Brake will prepare the brakes if a collision is likely. It the driver doesn’t brake, the system will do it automatically.

Adaptive Cruise Control3
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system lets you set the speed you want to travel and the gap you want to allow between you and the car in front. Using a radar sensor, the car then maintains your speed and your distance. In doing so it makes life easier for the driver, particularly on long journeys, and reduces the risk of exceeding the speed limit.

Side Assist3
The Side Assist function can help make changing lanes even safer. Side Assist uses two radars at the rear of the vehicle to scan up to 50m behind the vehicle, alerting the driver to any cars approaching when changing lanes. The active steering function also provides resistance to the steering wheel if you attempt to change lanes while a vehicle is in your blind spot, further alerting you to a potential collision.

Lane Assist including Adaptive Lane Guidance3
Using a camera to monitor the markings on the road ahead, Lane Assist with Adaptive Lane Guidance helps keep you safe by keeping you in the centre of the lane. If you start to leave your lane without indicating, the system takes corrective steering action. If you still don’t respond, a message will appear in the Active Info Display in conjunction with a warning tone.

Airbags3
The Arteon comes with a standard nine airbags, including front driver and passenger, front and rear side, front and rear curtain and driver's knee. So if something does go wrong, you’ll be pleased you’re in an Arteon.

Fatigue Detection3
This potentially life-saving system continually evaluates signs of fatigue, such as steering movements and other independent signals. If fatigue is detected, it warns the driver with an audible alarm, and visually on the Active Info Display, recommends the driver takes a break.

Rear View Camera3
Whether reversing out of a busy parking lot or trying to squeeze into a tricky spot, an extra set of eyes is always handy. The Rear View Camera, cleverly hidden behind the Volkswagen badge on the boot, displays a live picture on your screen that shows what’s behind you, making reversing safer and easier.

The all-weather light function distributes the light in a special way to illuminate the road better in generally poor weather conditions like rain, fog and snowfall.

Traffic Jam Assist3
To help you get through stop-and-go traffic easily, Traffic Jam Assist uses proven functions like Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Assist to allow easy, slow driving in traffic jams. The Arteon will follow the vehicle ahead at a speed of 0 to 60 km/h and automatically operate the accelerator and brakes within system limits to help you avoid typical traffic jam collisions.
