Can someone explain the Advanced Accident warning system the '06/07 Montes are to have gotten? Cause I have no clue what they mean by it?

I bought a few dealer books for '06 Impalas/Montes off ebay recently and a Details book mentions this system the cars are suppose to have.

 

SEMA - Mobileye on safety


Mobileye, an original equipment supplier of crash-avoidance systems, has entered into the automotive aftermarket with a series of safety products. The new aftermarket line, called AWS — short for Advanced Warning System — offers a suite of accident-avoidance applications based on Mobileye's camera- and software-based technology.
The base unit, the Mobileye FCW (Forward Crash Warning), will retail for about $600 and provide a warning system for drivers who may be distracted in stop-and-go and congested traffic.
Mobileye has several more systems on the market, with the $1,500 AWS-4000 at the top of the range. In addition to forward crash protection, the AWS-4000 also signals lane departures and can help drivers maintain a safe following distance. In addition, the high-end 4000 also incorporates a data recording system that registers non-emergency events such as illegal lane changes or keeping unsafe headway. The data recorder then interprets the driving habits and can become a tool for driver behavior monitoring, which can be useful for driver assessment, training, and skills improvement. This function makes it an interesting tool for parents wanting to monitor their teen's driving habit or fleet operators to manage their drivers.
In the event of an accident, the high-end Mobileye can capture a video clip of the accident (20 seconds before and 10 seconds after) on flash memory when it's triggered by a G-force sensor.
Mobileye says that they hope to expand their aftermarket offerings next year by providing systems for blind-spot and backup warnings to their list of products. These systems can provide some of the same benefits from the safety systems on today's luxury sedans to any vehicle. In fact, Mobileye works with automakers and has provided technology to Volvo for several safety systems on the S80.
We have not tested Mobileye aftermarket products, but are intrigued by their promised benefits. [/align][/align]

 

GPD,
I know about systems like the one you posted. But what the h--l is Chevy talking about with the '06/07 Montes? As far as I know my car has nothing like that on it?

Per this Details book, I would say the '06s are a new generation Monte if everything listed in there is what it claims to be and not just hype to tell potential customers looking to buy the 2006/07 cars.

Some have asked if the 3.9 is faster then the 3.8. According to this book the 3.9 is 40 more horses over the 3.8 engines.

 

Could be that the printing was completed before the deal with Mobileye was consumated orthe dealactually fell through.

 

Good point.

It's interesting to read the information Chevy wanted to give their salespeople on the '06 Montes and Impalas.

 

That just means if you have onstar, they call the cops for you if your airbags go off.

 

Ah. So when the air bag deploys and notifies OnStar they call 911 for you.

 

Yes, if you are a subscriber.
