Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC)í
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system is designed to maintain headway
control*1 according to the vehicle speed using a radar sensor to detect the distance to a
vehicle ahead, and by presetting the vehicle speed between 30 km/h (19 mph) and 145
km/h (90 mph), the driver is freed from having to constantly use the accelerator or brake
pedals.
*1 Headway Control: Control of the distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead
detected by the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system.
Additionally, if your vehicle starts closing in on the vehicle ahead because, for example,
the vehicle ahead brakes suddenly, a warning sound and a warning indication in the display
are activated simultaneously to alert you to maintain a sufficient distance between the
vehicles.
Use the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system on expressways and other highways
which do not require a lot of repeated acceleration and deceleration.
