Most new Toyota models now come with a degree of active safety. However, knowing exactly what these systems do and how they work can be confusing, and many systems are similar.
For example, both the Toyota Brake Assist system and the Automatic emergency brake system can be found in the Toyota Safety Pre-crash system, which can help the driver apply the brake to avoid a collision.
But what's the specific difference? When the driver is already on the brakes, brake assist is activated, which increases the brake response and thus speeds up the braking. If the driver does not brake after issuing a warning signal, the automatic emergency braking function can be activated and the vehicle can be stopped completely.
