In addition, this feature will detect if the driver's accelerator pedal is too strong, even when there is no obstacle in front. The engine will be cut off immediately in that case.
The manufacturer plans to integrate the above feature into new car models from the end of 2019. The company may also allow it to be equipped on older car models for a fee of 50,000 yen (about 10.9 million VND).
