The sensing system employed in the new Elf model uses a 120-degree wide-angle camera. This is combined with a millimeter-wave radar and a newly-developed software to achieve precise wide-angle detection. The Elf becomes the first light-duty truck in Japan to mitigate collision damage not just from the front, but also for right and left turns at intersections.
Japan’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism in Japan is promoting the mandatory installation of collision mitigation braking not only in passenger cars but also in commercial vehicles such as trucks. Although accidents caused by trucks have been decreasing year by year, 60 percent of fatal accidents involving pedestrians occur at single-track roads, while 40 percent occur at right or left turns in intersections.
