Safety features you might never discover. That ‘s because the new skoda Laura keeps you safe, quietly and continuously. Its active safety features work non stop as you drive, keeping you away from harm, while passive safety features protect you in unavoidable circumstances. Just so you can stay safe, without even trying.
Xenon curve projector headlights with dynamic leveling
Xenon headlights offer higher output and efficiency. To assist visibility around turns, the projector lamp modules swivel along with the car to illuminate turns as you take them. Headlight leveling also changes with acceleration, braking, inclination, descent and weight distribution of the new skoda Laura.
Parktronic –front and rear park distance control
Parktronic sensors probe the space around the front and rear of the car to determine the presence of obstacles. The parktronic display animatedly show the distance and direction of obstacle on a large colour screen with the support of an audio warning signal relayed over the front and rear speaker.
TPM (Tyre Pressure Monitoring)
TPM continuously monitor the air pressure in the individual tyres and prevents critical situations by providing timely warning of pressure loss in any of the tyres due to severe under-inflation or damages
Six airbags
The new Skoda Laura comes with 6 airbags including dual front airbags, dual side airbags at front and dual curtain airbags at front and rear which provide a high level of passenger protection. On activation of airbags, a sequence of operation begin to provide easy and other functionalities for the safety of passengers
Active front head restraints
The front seats with WOKS (whiplash optimized head restraints) are engineered to reduce neck injury in the event of an impact from the rear by moving forward to catch the backward movement of the head
Automatically dimming rear view mirrors
Photo sensors detect the intensity of light incident on the mirror surface and automatically reduces glare from other vehicles headlights.
Light Assistant – automatic headlight system with light sensor
Light sensors in the new Skoda Laura check for ambient light conditions and switch on the vehicles’s lamps in low light conditions such as in tunnels, basement parking etc. This helps reduce driver fatigue and heightens safety due to automated vehicle lighting .
Retractable headlight washers
A high pressure jet of water is sprayed onto the headlamps from concealed washer nozzles which dean the headlamp lenses to maximize the intensity of light.
ABS (Anti-lock Braking System)
ABS prevents the vehicle from skidding caused by hard panic breaking in wet and dry road conditions. ABS makes it safer for the driver to maintain driving control to the maximum possible extent such that the car can be safely steered away from obstacles without loss of directional control.
EBD (Electronic Brake force Distribution)
EBD Electronically regulates brakes pressure for each individual wheel and ensures that the braking action is even and vehicle can be brought safely to a stop
ASR (Anti Slip Regulation) / TCS (Traction Control System)
ASR combines with ASR and EBD to from the traction control system. ASR prevents the driven wheels from slipping by reducing the engine output. ASR enhances steering confidence by maintaining traction at all speed and over poor road conditions
EDL (Electronic Differential Lock)
When a difference in speed exists between the driven wheels, for instance when one side of the car is traveling over a wet road or gravel. The EDL function compensates by transferring the engine’s power to the wheel having traction. It improves vehicle stability by maintaining traction at all speeds and over poor road conditions
ESP (Electronic Stability Programme)
ESP is the most advanced system of controlling the car’s driving dynamics. ESP lets the driver enjoy the limits of the car’s performance without being excessively worried about loss of control such as when driving too fast into a curve. It detects an eventual skid much sooner and more accurately than the driver, and intervenes with total precision, at a speed and manner unattainable by even the most experienced driver.
MBA (Mechanical Brake Assistant) / HBA (Hydraulic Brake Assistant)
The Brake Assistant (BA) detects a critical braking situation from the speed of brake pedal application and ensures maximum pressure in the braking system. As soon as the brake pedal is released, the BA is automatically switched off and the standard function of the braking system returns. Brake assist optimizes the braking advantages of ABS.
