How Hyundai Stargazer ensures safe driving even after long days at work

Driving at night can be challenging for some, especially to those who are coming home after a long day at work. Aside from having reduced visibility, drivers are more likely to be tired and respond slowly.

Thankfully, most of the vehicles nowadays are equipped with advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) designed to make it easier and quicker for drivers to respond to dangers on the road.

One of the vehicles in the local market that comes with high-quality, reliable ADAS is the Hyundai Stargazer, which is also an ideal vehicle for families and the working class due to its practicality, powerful performance, and affordable price. This multipurpose vehicle (MPV) is equipped with Hyundai SmartSense, a suite of intelligent technologies that help make driving and parking safer and easier with the help of cameras, ultrasonic sensors, and radars.

Hyundai SmartSense includes the following features:

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist

This technology has the ability to warn the driver of the presence of pedestrians, cyclists, or other vehicles in front using the forward camera and forward radar.

Lane Keeping Assist

Lane keeping assist aids the driver in staying within its lane through steering control.

Blind-spot Collision Warning

With the help of the rear side radar, the system detects if there are approaching vehicles in the  blind spot and gives the driver a warning.

Blind-spot Collision Avoidance

When there are oncoming vehicles detected in the driver’s blind spot area when changing lanes, the system will apply side braking assist.

Safe Exit Warning

This safety feature alerts the driver through a caution warning when a vehicle is approaching from behind when an occupant is exiting the Stargazer.

Safe Exit Assist

If the system detects a vehicle approaching from the rear when someone is exiting the Stargazer, the power sliding door will be automatically interlocked.

Driver Attention Warning

This technology monitors the driver’s behavior behind the wheel and provides warning and forward vehicle departure notification to alert the driver when the car ahead starts to move forward from a full stop.

High Beam Assist

The Stargazer's LED headlights are equipped with high beam assist, which optimizes the night vision based on the surrounding environment through the high beam control.

Smart Cruise Control with Stop and Go

This system keeps the distance between the Stargazer and the vehicle behind with the help of the forward radar and the forward camera.

Lane Following Assist

The lane following assist feature uses the forward camera to follow the vehicle ahead to precisely place the Stargazer in the center of its lane.

Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Warning

With the help of the radar installed at the rear side of the vehicle, this system can detect if a vehicle is approaching when the Stargazer is reversing and give the driver a warning.

Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist

If an approaching vehicle is detected when the Stargazer is backing up, this system will automatically apply the brakes.

Aside from these state-of-the-art safety features, the Stargazer also boasts a futuristic styling and superior spaciousness and comfort, making it perfect not only as a daily driver to work, but also as a reliable ride for long-distance road trips on the weekends.

The front face of the Stargazer sports a prominent skid plate, a flush-type radiator grille, and unique multi-face reflector headlamps inspired by Hyundai’s “pioneering spirit.” It is designed with a horizontal LED strip that includes the daytime running lights and the positioning lamps.

On the rear, the Stargazer’s wide stance is highlighted by the bumper and the skid plate. The vehicle’s unique visual identity and techy appearance are represented by the H-signature trail lamp, which covers the entire rear.

Inside, the seven-seater MPV is designed with “modern furniture” elements that evoke the comfort of home living. Its superior headroom, legroom, and shoulder room make it easy to get in and out of or move around the second and third rows. These passenger rows not only feature a high degree of versatility, but they also have slim seatbacks that create a wider flat loading surface for cargo when fully folded down.

Driving convenience is also guaranteed by the eight-inch touchscreen infotainment display with Apple Carplay and Android Auto connectivity, as well as the wireless phone charger.

With all these features, the Stargazer delivers a high level of safety, comfort, and convenience on the road so you can drive with confidence and peace of mind anytime and anywhere.
