Integrated passive safety systems

In the event of a collision, the new Quon features an extremely robust cab structure (SAFES CABIN) and a range of integrated safety systems to minimise the risk of injury. Side-impact protection, seatbelts with pre-tensioners, SRS Airbags including the pioneering UD knee protection airbag and impact-absorbing steering wheel and steering column are just a few examples of reliable systems designed to keep your drivers safe behind the wheel. In addition, in the event of a collision with a passenger car,  a front and rear under run protection device (FUPD/RUPD) helps improve the protection for the cars’ driver and passengers.

Advanced Emergency Braking System (AEBS)

The advanced Electronic Brake System includes a range of features to optimise braking performance. It includes the Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) that prevents the wheels from locking even under heavy braking on slippery roads. This allowing the driver to brake and steer at the same time to avoid an accident. In addition, the Anti-Slip Regulation system (ASR) distributes drive force to the wheel with the best grip, reducing the risk of spinning on a slippery surface. (EBS is standard on trucks equipped with ESCOT-V.)

UD Stability Control (UDSC)

The highly sophisticated UDSC system efficiently reduces the risk of jack-knifing, rollovers and trailer swing. When the system detects a tendency to a critical situation, it alerts the driver and immediately reduces engine power and brakes each wheel individually on both the truck and trailer to counteract the situation. This provides stability for the entire vehicle combination.*
* UDSC require that the trailer is equipped with ABS

Lane Departure Warning (LDWS)

The camera-based Lane Departure Warning System is designed to increase driving safety by warning if you unintentionally deviate from the traffic lane. The camera monitors the road ahead and at speeds above 60 km/h it detects and warns if you unintentionally cross lane markings.

Electronic Brake System (EBS)

The advanced Electronic Brake System includes a range of features to optimise braking performance and extend tire life. It includes the Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) that prevents the wheels from locking, even under heavy braking on slippery roads. This allows the driver to brake and steer at the same time to avoid an accident. In addition, the Anti- Slip Regulation system (ASR) distributes drive force to the wheel with the best grip, reducing the risk of spinning on a slippery surface.
