Front Assist with City Emergency Brake
The new Crafter Runner comes with state-of-the-art driver assistance systems. Front Assist uses radar to monitor your distance from the traffic in front, and alerts you if you are too close. City Emergency Braking reduces the chance of a collision by triggering emergency braking when it detects critical distances from other vehicles.
