Adaptive cruise control is similar to conventional cruise control in that it maintains the vehicle's pre-set speed. However, unlike conventional cruise control, this new system can automatically adjust speed in order to maintain a proper distance between vehicles in the same lane. This is achieved through a radar headway sensor, digital signal processor and longitudinal controller. If the lead vehicle slows down, or if another object is detected, the system sends a signal to the engine or braking system to decelerate. Then, when the road is clear, the system will re-accelerate the vehicle back to the set speed. 7, record 1, English, - adaptive%20cruise%20control

Control inteligente de velocidad, [...] este sistema mantiene la distancia de seguridad que se establezca con el vehículo que le precede, gracias a unos radares anticolisión montados en el parachoques delantero. Cuando esta distancia se reduce, el CIV emite una señal acústica para alertar al conductor y, si éste no frena, el coche es capaz de aminorar la velocidad hasta los 30 km/h. 2, record 1, Spanish, - control%20inteligente%20de%20velocidad
