WHAT IS PROPILOT ASSIST?

ProPILOT Assist is a hands-on driver assist system that combines adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping to maintain speed, follow traffic, and keep the vehicle centered in its lane. Nissan's Intelligent Cruise Control and Steering Assist technologies includes a stop and hold function that can bring the vehicle to a full stop, hold in place and can bring you back up to speed when traffic starts moving again.

Features include Speed Adjust by Route that can help reduce your speed for tight curves and off-ramps, as well as Speed Limit Assist that gives drivers the option to quickly adjust the set speed to the posted speed limit. Both features allow for a more intuitive, enjoyable drive. [[1735]]

Passing Assist

Keep moving forward and get where you’re going with Passing Assist: an innovative feature unique to the ProPILOT Assist 2.1 suite of technologies.
