Opel’s new light commercial vehicles (LCVs), including the Combo Electric, Vivaro Electric, and Movano Electric, are equipped with advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) that enhance safety and ease of driving.
Key Highlights:
- Dynamic Surround Vision for enhanced maneuverability
- Level 2 automated driving in the new Movano
- Up to 21 ADAS features available
Light commercial vehicles (LCVs) are vital for various professional fields, from construction to parcel delivery. Recognizing the demands on these vehicles, Opel has integrated numerous Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) into their new Combo Electric, Vivaro Electric, and Movano Electric models, as well as their combustion-engine counterparts, to improve safety and reduce driver stress.
Dynamic Surround Vision
Opel’s Dynamic Surround Vision is a standout feature available in the new Combo and Vivaro models. This system utilizes two cameras, one above the rear doors and another under the passenger-side exterior mirror, paired with a high-definition rearview mirror. The images from these cameras provide drivers with a clear view of the areas behind and beside the vehicle, significantly enhancing safety during maneuvers and turns.
Advanced ADAS Benefits
The new Opel Combo and Vivaro boast up to 18 ADAS features, many of which come as standard. These include:
- Intelligent Speed Assist
- Lane Keep Assist
- Advanced Emergency Braking
- Driver Attention Alert
Additionally, Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is available as an option, providing further comfort on long journeys.
Movano’s Level 2 Automated Driving
The Opel Movano sets a new standard in its segment with its Level 2 automated driving capability. This includes:
- Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
- Lane Centering
- Traffic Jam Assist
- Electric Power Steering
These features enable the Movano to brake, accelerate, and steer itself at speeds up to 30 km/h, provided the driver’s hands remain on the wheel. This significantly reduces driver fatigue in slow-moving traffic while ensuring the driver remains alert and ready to take control when necessary.
Comprehensive Safety Systems
The new Movano also includes additional safety features such as:
- Traffic Sign Recognition
- Forward Collision Alert with Emergency Braking
- Parking Assist
The Drowsiness Alert system in the Movano helps keep drivers vigilant by signaling when it’s time to take a break after extended periods of driving.
Opel’s new generation of light commercial vehicles, including the Combo, Vivaro, and Movano, are designed to meet the high demands of today’s users. With an extensive range of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, these vehicles aim to make the job safer and less stressful, allowing drivers to focus on their tasks with greater ease and confidence.
