For additional information, refer to “ Approach warning” in this section. The following items are controlled in the ICC system: ● When there are no vehicles traveling ahead, the ICC system maintains the speed set by the driver. The set speed range is between approximately 20 and 90 mph (32 and 144 km/h). ● When there is a vehicle traveling [...]
