Package includes:
- Xenon Headlamps
- Surround Camera System
- Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS)
- Auto High Beam Assist (AHBA)
- Blind Spot Monitor with Closing Vehicle Sensor
But it looks worth it as I think I want these features. Does this include the adaptive cruise control? Does it automatically brake if you're about to hit something? or just give you warnings? How well does this system work? i.e. do you all like it?
Or does it just give a lot of false alarms and you end up ignoring it or turning it off.
thanks in advance-

Hi Morey, I have the vision package and I like it a lot. The xenon lights are great and I really like the auto high beams. If you drive mostly in the city, though, the auto high beams will not be as useful. The blind spot monitor is also nice. The only thing I have not found very useful are the surround cameras. I think the camera views are confusing and the one view I really wanted (right in front of the bumper to see the curb)is not one of the views! There is no automatic braking feature included. I think the package is worth the money.
