Assistance systems for safety and comfort
With its comfort and safety systems, the Rexton catches up with its smaller sister models. The automatic emergency braking system with front collision warning and pedestrian detection has been adapted, as have the lane departure warning, the high beam assistant and the traffic sign recognition system. The Crystal, Quartz and Sapphire equipment lines are available.
Good equipment and favorable entry price
The favorable starting price of 32,990 Swiss francs (2WD) should also allow price-sensitive customers to order higher-quality equipped vehicles. For example, the top Sapphire version features, among other things, heated front and rear seats, keyless go system, heated steering wheel, front seat ventilation, LED fog lights, and a navigation system with 9.2-inch touchscreen.
