In an emergency, many cars can already brake themselves
One in four newly registered cars in Germany in 2015 had an automatic emergency braking system on board. Emergency braking systems can help reduce rear-end collisions resulting in injury by up to 72 percent. #bosch board of management member Hoheisel: “Driver assistance systems are paving the way for automated driving.” Worldwide, nearly 3,000 #bosch engineers are working to develop driver assistance systems as well as automated driving and parking. Collect press release Download press release Stuttgart, Germany – In critical situations, many new vehicles in Germany already brake automatically, according to a #bosch evaluation of the 2015 vehicle registration statistics. The findings indicate that one in four newly registered cars has an automatic emergency braking system on board to prevent accidents and, if necessary, bring the vehicle to a stop in the event of an emergency. Adaptive cruise control (ACC) is also very popular among car buyers. In 2015, it was already found in 11 percent of new vehicles. Parking assistance systems – from parking beepers to park and steering assist – make parking easier in every second newly registered car in Germany. Sixteen percent of new cars monitor lane changes or independently stay in their lane, and 11 percent of new vehicles feature camera-based road sign recognition. “Driver assistance systems are gaining an increasing foothold in the market and are thereby paving the way for automated driving,” says Dr. Dirk Hoheisel, a member of the #bosch board of management. “The more familiar drivers are with driver assistance systems, the greater the acceptance of automated driving.”
