Parking sensors 
 
This system measures the size of a free 
parking space between two vehicles or 
obstacles. 
   
Stop & Start system 
 
This system puts the engine temporarily into standby during 
stops in the traffic (traffic lights, traffic jams, etc...). The engine 
restarts automatically as soon as you want to move off. The 
Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust 
emissions, as well as noise levels when stationary.
