What is Land Rover Adaptive Cruise Control?

Land Rover Adaptive Cruise Control is a driver-assistance technology available in new Land Rover models that enhances the typical cruise control feature you find on most vehicles. Land Rover models come standard with Cruise Control & Speed Limiter, which allows you to set a maximum speed to help you avoid breaking speed limits in Newark, while Land Rover Adaptive Cruise Control goes further with its capabilities. Learn more below, and contact us at Land Rover Wilmington if you have any questions!

How Adaptive Cruise Control Works

1. When Adaptive Cruise Control is engaged, the vehicle’s speed automatically reduces if a slower moving vehicle is detected in front of you.
2. The system uses its sensors to maintain a safe following distance to the vehicle ahead.
3. If the system detects that the slower moving vehicle is no longer present, it automatically raises your vehicle speed back up to the originally set cruise control speed.

Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop & Go / Queue Assist

Stop & Go (also called Queue Assist) is an additional feature that pairs with Adaptive Cruise Control in low-speed situations. Here’s how it works:

1. This feature is used in slow-moving lines of heavy traffic.
2. When the vehicle in front of you slows to a standstill, the system brings your vehicle to a standstill.
3. When the vehicle in front of you moves forward again, tap the accelerator pedal and the system will continue to maintain a safe following distance.
4. The following distance can be adjusted on your steering wheel-mounted controls.

How to Deactivate Adaptive Cruise Control

There are many ways that Adaptive Cruise Control can be automatically or manually deactivated, while still retaining the memory of its most recent settings to resume after reactivation:

• The CAN button (cancel button) on the steering wheel is pressed.
• The brake pedal is pressed or the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) is applied.
• Hill Descent Control or All Terrain Progress Control (ATPC) are manually selected.
• Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) or Electronic Traction Control (ETC) are automatically activated.
• When the pre-set speed limit has been reached.
