Semi-automated driving assistance Travel Assist with swarm data

Keeps you in your lane. And others at a distance.

With the optional Travel Assist, you have an extremely useful driving assistance system on board.
It can keep your vehicle in its lane, keep its distance from the vehicle in front and maintain your pre-defined speed.
Among other things, it uses the adaptive lane guidance system for this. This system actively keeps the vehicle in the middle of its lane. Travel Assist adapts to your driving style and can drive further on the left or right in the lane instead of in the centre.
In addition, Travel Assist also actively provides support on request when changing lanes on the motorway.
If swarm data is available, Travel Assist can use just one identified road lane marking to keep the vehicle in lane.(More information about Travel Assist with swarm data)
Travel Assist also comes with predictive cruise control and a cornering assist function. Here, the vehicle speed can be adapted to applicable speed limits and the course of the road (bends, roundabouts, etc.).

Available in the following models

ID.3
ID.4
ID.5
