Safe driving technology for everyone who shares the road.
Toyota Safety Sense (TSS) is a suite of active car safety features and technologies that act as your extra set of eyes, ears, and reflexes on the road. TSS comes standard across the Toyota vehicle lineup and is offered in four unique packages depending on your specific Toyota model.
EXPLORE
TSS-P features advanced technologies including Pre-Collision System, Lane Departure Alert, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, and Automatic High Beam.
TSS 2.0 builds on TSS-P, and consists of up to six active safety and driver assistance systems.
TSS 2.5 and 2.5+ add new capabilities to the Pre-Collision and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control Systems, and enhance Lane Departure Alert and Lane Tracing Assist.
TSS 3.0 brings even more advances, including Motorcycle Detection, Proactive Driving Assist, and Road Sign Assist.
Pre-Collision System
TTS-C - This system helps you avoid accidents, alerting you to the likelihood of a collision and braking when needed.
TSS-P - Pedestrian detection is added, depending on the situation.
TSS 2.0 - Daytime/low-light vehicle and pedestrian detection, along with daytime bicycle detection, is added.
TSS 2.5+ - Pedestrian daytime and low-light detection, daytime bicycle detection, intersection support and Emergency Steering Assist are the highlights of the top level.
Lane Departure Alert
TTS-C - If you start to drift out of your lane, this system will alert you.
TSS-P - Steering Assist is added, providing small steering adjustments.
TSS 2.0 - Along with lane markings, this level alerts at road edges and curbs.
Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
TSS-P - This highway stream adjusts and maintains your preset distance to the vehicle ahead. It works between 40 km/ and 180 km/h.
TSS 2.0 - This Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control allows for vehicle-to-vehicle control all the way to 0 km/h and is able to return even after you come to a complete stop.
TSS 2.5+ - Curve Speed Management decelerates the vehicle around a curve if needed.
Lane Tracing Alert
TSS 2.0 - This system works with Dynamic Radar Cruise Control to keep you centred and prevent drifting out of your lane. TSS 2.5+: The system is improved with Enhanced Line & Road Recognition, working where markings may not exist.
Automatic High Beam
TTS-C, TSS-P, TSS 2.0, TSS 2.5+ - Every Toyota Safety Sense has the same Auto High Beam headlights. The system switches them from high-beam to low-beam automatically, given the circumstances of oncoming or ahead tail lights.
Roadside Assist
TSS 3.0 - Road Sign Assist (RSA) is designed to help provide the driver with additional awareness of posted road signs. It is capable of detecting speed limit signs, stop signs, Do Not Enter signs, yield signs and certain warning signs, and displays an icon of the sign on the Multi-Information Display (MID).
SAFETY VIDEO GALLERY

ABS helps prevent brakes from locking up by pulsing brake pressure to each wheel to help you stay in control in emergency braking situations.
Brake Assist is designed to detect sudden or "panic" braking and then add the full pressure needed to help prevent a collision.
This advanced technology automatically cuts engine power and allows the brakes to take precedence over the accelerator when both pedals are pressed at the same time.
VSC helps prevent wheelslip and loss of traction by reducing engine power and applying brake force to the wheels that need it.
TRAC helps maintain traction on wet, icy, loose or uneven surfaces by applying brake force to the spinning wheel(s).
Toyota's ABS technology uses EBD to help keep the vehicle more stable and balanced when braking.
AWARDS
Here at Toyota, we’ve set our sights on an accident-free future and we’re proud to be named one of the industry’s safest vehicle brands by organizations like the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) year after year.
RELIABLY ROAD READY
Each step of our manufacturing process is designed to give drivers confidence in the quality, durability, and trustworthiness of their Toyota vehicle.
Toyota conducts over 1,600 vehicle crash tests and thousands more virtual simulations annually. Targeted sensors feed data to our engineers throughout each crash test, giving us the information necessary to adapt and improve the design of our vehicles to maximize your safety.
No Toyota vehicle makes it onto Canada’s highways without going through multiple check points. Take our airbags, for example. Each airbag is inspected three separate times on the production line before being connected to the airbag system via corrosion-resistant terminals.
In 2015, we introduced our Toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA), a complete overhaul of our platforms and powertrains. These re-engineered systems are designed to make Toyota vehicles better in every way - stronger, smarter, safer, and built to last.
