AcuraWatch Features in Peoria, IL
Your Safety Sidekick: A Guide to AcuraWatch at Bob Lindsay Acura
When you're behind the wheel, confidence matters – and that's exactly what AcuraWatch brings to the table. Standard on most new Acura models and available across the lineup, AcuraWatch is a comprehensive suite of safety and driver-assist technologies designed to help keep you, your passengers, and everyone around you safe. At Bob Lindsay Acura in Peoria, IL, we’re all about smart features that make driving smoother, safer, and less stressful. Let’s walk through why AcuraWatch is one of the most talked-about features in the Acura lineup.
What Is AcuraWatch?
AcuraWatch is an entire package of advanced systems that work together to help prevent collisions, assist with braking, keep you centered in your lane, and maintain a safe following distance. Think of it as your vehicle’s co-pilot – always alert, always watching.
Every Acura equipped with AcuraWatch includes:
- Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS™)
- Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low-Speed Follow
- Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)
- Road Departure Mitigation (RDM)
From your morning commute to weekend road trips, AcuraWatch is on duty every mile.
Breaking Down Each Safety Feature
Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS™)This system uses radar and a forward-facing camera to monitor the road ahead. If it senses a potential collision, it gives you a heads-up – and if you don’t react fast enough, it can automatically apply the brakes. Whether it’s sudden traffic on I-74 or a distracted pedestrian downtown, CMBS™ is ready to act when you need it most.
Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed FollowCruise control just got smarter. With ACC, your Acura keeps a safe following distance from the vehicle in front of you and can even bring your vehicle to a complete stop if traffic grinds to a halt. Once things start moving again, so will your Acura. This is especially handy on those slow rolls through Peoria’s afternoon congestion or stop-and-go holiday traffic.
Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)Drifting? Not with LKAS. If your vehicle begins to veer from the center of the lane without a turn signal, LKAS can gently steer you back. On longer highway drives, this keeps your ride more centered, less tiring, and a lot safer, especially when road lines aren’t clearly visible.
Road Departure Mitigation (RDM)Sometimes distractions happen. If your Acura senses that you're about to unintentionally leave the road, RDM will step in to help. It provides visual and tactile alerts and can even apply steering or braking assistance to help keep your vehicle in bounds.
Available AcuraWatch Add-Ons
Some Acura models go beyond the standard with additional driver-assist options like:
- Blind Spot Information System
- Rear Cross Traffic Monitor
- Surround-View Camera
- Traffic Sign Recognition
- Traffic Jam Assist
Each feature adds an extra layer of confidence and cushion to your drive. When your vehicle catches all things seen and unseen, the more protected you are.
Standard on Most Acura Models
Rest assured, AcuraWatch isn’t locked behind premium trims. It’s standard on most models, such as fan favorites RDX, MDX, and Integra. Whether you're looking for an athletic SUV or a classy sedan, AcuraWatch comes along for the ride.
