Speed Sensitive Adjusting Instrument Panel The instrument panel in front of the passenger seat tilts up and down 45 degrees in response to vehicle speed. Tilting the panel upward during high-speed driving gives the passenger a sense of security, while tilting it downward during low-speed travel opens the space for a more relaxed feel.

Biometrics Driving Unit Approaching the vehicle, the driver is recognized by vehicle sensors and intelligent cameras, and the vehicle’s doors unlock.The driving unit also automatically sets the steering wheel, accelerator pedal, and instrument panel to the optimal position for the driver.

Line-of-Sight Operated Switches A system installed in the instrument panel senses the driver's line of sight shifting toward menu icons, and operates switches accordingly, allowing the driver hands-free operation of audio, air-conditioning and other vehicle systems.
