Covering a host of technologies dedicated to making sure you avoid problems on the road, active safety includes TCS/ESP , Multilink Rear Axle, DSR, the new SEAT Toledo's leading edge brake technologies: Anti lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Braking Assistant (EBA). The ABS is designed to prevent the wheels from locking up during braking. Even under emergency braking conditions, the car remains in control, which means the driver can avoid an obstacle without having to release the brakes first. The ESP includes EBA (Emergency Brake Assistance) that comes into play in emergency stops or panicky braking manoeuvres when drivers brake rapidly, but ineffectively. The EBA sensors recognise the attempt at full braking and transmit a signal calling for full brake pressure. The result is a slow, strong application of the full brake force from a short pedal movement and a significantly reduced braking distance. Tyre Pressure Sensor Functioning directly on one of the most crucial parts of the automobile, the tyres, the Tyre Pressure Sensor provides the New Toledo with safety enhancing innovation. Consisting of a receiver, temperature compensator and internal tyre pressure monitor, the system informs the driver as soon as tyre pressure drops below a certain level and is even smart enough to handle pressure differences caused by ambient temperature, thus avoiding unnecessary risks while driving. Bi-Xenon headlights The more you can see, the safer you are on the road. For this reason the New Toledo offers this high-performance illumination system.   Xenon lamps create light by sending an arc of current between two tungsten electrodes, fitted inside a glass chamber filled with xenon gas and halogenised metal salts. The beam of light this produces has a characteristic blue/green colour and is twice as intense as that of a halogen lamp. This gives you extended reach and clarity of illumination, meaning better vision, less strain and safer driving in challenging conditions.
