The Montero Sport GT has received not only a new look, but also upgraded safety features

Now, the high-end Montero model will be loaded with two advanced safety features: the Ultrasonic Misacceleration Mitigation System (UMS) and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC).

Speaking of the UMS, this feature is used to prevent driver from possible collisions by ferreting out obstacles through the ultrasonic sensor and automatically control the engine’s power. This often occurs when the car is running at low speed (usually in parking lots) and the driver unintentionally presses the wrong pedal or there is unexpected movement while driving.

Meanwhile, as an upgrade of the current cruise control system, the ACC demonstrates great improvement in using radar sensors together with cruise control to detect cars in front, then automatically limits speed of the vehicle to keep a safe distance. What’s more, now drivers can set the safe distance using the steering wheel in advance.
