Cross Traffic Alert uses radar sensors in the rear bumper to detect cross traffic when backing out of parking spaces. It monitors traffic movement and warns the driver acoustically and visually if a vehicle is approaching. The system works reliably with obstructed views using 7 radar beams and can detect vehicles up to 20 meters away, helping prevent collisions with cross traffic when backing up.
