No wonder the new Astra and the Insignia both got the top ratings in the Euro NCAP safety test. Our vehicles carry a comprehensive array of passive safety features to ensure optimal protection in case of an accident. Active safety equipment aims to prevent accidents by warning the driver of potential hazards and helping maintain stability.
Adaptive Forward Lighting for safer night vision
Imagine headlights which change their pattern and intensity to suit your location, the weather, and your speed.Opel’s advanced Adaptive Forward Lighting system (AFL+) makes night driving safer and more relaxed by improving visibility in curves. This industry leading forward lighting system automatically selects from nine different light functions each designed to provide optimum illumination in each driving situation without dazzling other drivers. The result: less stress, more safety.
The innovative Opel Eye improves driving safety, reduces stress and can even prevent costly speeding tickets. Located between the windshield and the rear-view mirror, the Opel Eye front camera helps you in two different ways: Traffic Sign Recognition and Lane Departure Warning.
Advanced Park Assistant makes parking easy
Using front and rear sensors the Advanced Park Assistant can detect a suitable parking space and then using visual instructions displayed on the central display guides you into it. Push-button activated, it is computer controlled and also senses obstacles. Both written and visual graphics indicate the steering angles and direction. The result is perfect parallel parking, even in confined spaces.
SAFETEC® - All-round security
Opel has an integral approach to safety. All active and passive safety systems that contribute to reducing dangers when driving are categorized under one heading: “SAFETEC®”. The result is coherent and effective protection for all on board.
