What is this? traffic jam cruise control
When you pull the cruise control stalk a second time it goes into TJA (Traffic Jam Assist) mode and it basically does all the low speed stuff a bit more elegantly than in normal cruise control mode.
I think ultimately it just forces all the stuff on if you otherwise turned them off, so the lane keep and centering and so on. I find it brakes a bit more softly than in the normal mode but could be all in my head.
Pulls away by itself a little faster and waits a bit longer before going to sleep and so on.
Don’t remember if the normal Adaptive Cruise pulls away by itself, I pretty much never use it.
How TJA Works
Key Benefits
- Adaptive Speed Control:
The TJA system works in conjunction with Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) to match the speed of the vehicle in front, even in heavy traffic.
- Steering Assistance:
The system provides steering balance and lane keeping to keep the vehicle centered.
- Low-Speed Operation:
TJA is specifically designed for low-speed driving in congested conditions, making daily commutes smoother and safer.
- Driver Interaction:
The driver can activate the system by using the lever on the steering wheel and can disengage it by simply applying the accelerator or brake.
- Reduced Driver Fatigue:
By automating some driving tasks in heavy traffic, TJA can help reduce driver stress and fatigue.
- Enhanced Safety:
The system's ability to maintain a safe distance and center the vehicle helps prevent accidents and provides peace of mind.
- Effortless Driving:
TJA makes navigating through traffic jams less challenging and more comfortable.
