International ProStar To Feature Bendix Next Gen Active Safety System

International® Truck has announced that it will offer the new Bendix next generation active safety system which enhances and merges three component technologies—camera, radar and brakes—a first for the North American commercial vehicle industry.

Noted Bill Kozek, Navistar president, Truck and Parts, “Our unique relationship with Bendix offers our customers new options that enhance driver and vehicle safety, improve uptime and increase productivity.”

The next-generation Bendix system builds on the proven technology of Bendix® ESP® electronic stability system, Bendix® Wingman® Advanced™ collision mitigation technology, and AutoVue® Lane Departure Warning (LDW) system from Bendix CVS. It integrates and significantly enhances the most advanced technologies in the Bendix commercial vehicle safety suite to create a system that does more—and does it better—for today’s commercial vehicle market.

The Bendix next generation active safety system will be launched initially on International® ProStar® sleeper models with ProStar daycab and LoneStar models following later in 2015.
