Travel Assist

Travel Assist

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 conjunction with a navigation system, Travel Assist is enhanced with predictive cruise control and a cornering assist function. Travel Assist can adapt the vehicle's speed to the current speed limits and course of the road (bends, roundabouts, etc.).
In conjunction with the dual clutch gearbox (DSG)* you can also stay relaxed when driving in traffic jams and stop-and-go traffic.
*only in combination with an automatic transmission DSG

Available in the following models

Polo
T-Cross
Taigo
T-Roc
T-Roc Cabriolet
Tiguan
Tiguan Allspace
