    Active Brake Assist 5

    Active Brake Assist 5

    Active Brake Assist 5 (ABA 5) detects distance and speed to moving and stationary objects in its path and determines if braking is necessary. It’s the only system on the market that works down to 8 km/h, making it ideal for travel in congested urban areas. It also recognises pedestrians who are about to cross in the truck’s path, alerting the driver while partially braking, followed by full braking if the driver does not react. The market‑leading ABA 5 has fused a camera and radar, which is cutting‑edge technology.
