The Lexus RZ is the luxury brand's first globally available all-electric executive model and the latest vehicle to be tested by Euro NCAP. The Lexus RZ meets Euro NCAP s expectations for all-around good crash protection for occupants representing a range of ages, heights, and sizes. The car is also equipped with the latest crash avoidance systems and comes with several new active safety innovations. The RZ is the first car that Euro NCAP rewards for Child Presence Detection technology under the latest 2023 rating regime.

The announcement of the new government crash test programme is a direct result of the Safer Cars for India Campaign, led by Global NCAP and the Institute for Road Safety Education (IRTE). For almost a decade this consumer campaign has independently crash tested popular cars in India and published the results, generating huge media attention. Bloomberg Philanthropies and the FIA Foundation funded the campaign.

In the case of the Automated Lane Keeping System (ALKS), that requirement states that when explicitly activated by the driver of a vehicle, the system must control longitudinal and lateral movements of the vehicle and monitor driver behaviour, including continuous determination of driver availability and attentiveness. ALKS deploys sensors and actuators to perform its tasks and keep the vehicle in the chosen lane. The automatic driving function is deactivated as soon as intervention is necessary or the driver takes independent action. This level of functionality corresponds to SAE Level 3.

Continental has expanded its tool box for automotive software development: With the future virtual ECU Creator software (vECU Creator), developers at vehicle manufacturers, suppliers and third parties will be able to configure and run virtual cloud-based electronic control units in their specific development environments to help develop code for micro-controller and processor hardware that does not yet exist. The virtual ECU Creator is part of the Continental Automotive Edge (CAEdge) framework, which runs on Amazon Web Services (AWS). By using cloud-based vECUs, new applications or software features for software-defined vehicles (SDV) can be built by OEMs faster, more efficiently and in a more agile way.

Working in conjunction with a camera mounted in the car's rear spoiler, the DCM significantly increases visibility by providing an unobstructed, panoramic, rear-facing view of the car. The DCM offers a rear vision horizontal angle of approximately 20° when in standard optical mode.

read more ... To effectively communicate with each other in traffic, we rely today on a range of signals - such as traffic lights, turn indicators, and eye contact. With the advent of automated vehicles, the communication landscape in traffic is transforming. How will automated vehicles integrate into traffic while ensuring understanding and trust among other road users, including pedestrians and human drivers? A research project shows that new communication signals could be vital in various traffic situations and that these signals need to be standardized, cost-efficient, and compatible with other features on vehicles.
