2021 Volkswagen Atlas Safety & Driver Assistance The VW Atlas equips you with a long list of standard and available safety features to provide you with extra peace of mind as you travel. You have a choice between a standard Rear View Camera System and an available Overhead View Camera (Area View), which gives you a bird’s-eye view of your SUV. Another standard visibility-enhancing feature is the LED Headlights with LED Daytime Running Lights (DRL), which help you see and be seen both day and night. Furthermore, standard heated mirrors provide you with unobstructed side views of your Atlas, and rain-sensing wipers keep your window to the world clear. Standard Safety Systems Along with these more passive safety features, in the Volkswagen Atlas you will find a host of standard active safety systems. Forward Collision Warning & Autonomous Emergency Braking (Front Assist) provides audio-visual cues about potential rear-end collisions and the Autonomous Emergency Braking feature engages if need be. Pedestrian Monitoring warns the driver if it detects a pedestrian crossing the road and applies the brakes automatically to avoid or mitigate a collision. Similarly, the Blind Spot Monitor acts as a personal sonar system by alerting you if you try to change lanes when another vehicle is in or approaching your blind spot. Pulling up the rear–literally–the Rear Traffic Alert system warns you if someone or something crosses your path while maneuvering in reverse. It will also apply the brakes if necessary.
