What is the Difference Between Adaptive Cruise Control and Conventional Cruise Control?
1 Answers
The differences between adaptive cruise control and conventional cruise control are: 1. Different functions: Conventional cruise control relies solely on the driver's manual operation in emergency situations; Adaptive cruise control maintains the vehicle's longitudinal movement and will alert the driver and actively intervene with braking when there is a risk of collision. 2. Different applications: Conventional cruise control is suitable for good road conditions, such as highways or roads with light traffic; Adaptive cruise control can adapt not only to highway conditions but also to urban road conditions. Adaptive cruise control is an intelligent automatic control system, where the distance sensor installed at the front of the vehicle continuously scans the road ahead. Conventional cruise control, also known as a speed control device, allows the driver to set a desired speed. Once the cruise control function is activated, the engine's fuel supply is automatically regulated to maintain the set speed when the vehicle reaches or exceeds the minimum cruise control speed by pressing the accelerator.
