The Nissan ProPILOT Assist is a driver assistance technology that can help make highway driving easier. When considering a new Nissan, you will find that there are different ProPILOT Assist system options available that offer various degrees of assistance, so understanding how it works and what your vehicle’s system can do is essential.
Understanding the Nissan ProPILOT Assist Technology
ProPILOT Assist 1.1
The ProPILOT Assist 1.1 is the earliest edition of the system, that has a focus on single-lane highway driving. ProPILOT Assist 1.1 is a hands-on technology, meaning you can’t let go of the steering wheel, but when activated, it can help maintain a preset distance from the vehicle in front of you and help keep you centered in your lane.
ProPILOT Assist 2.0
When you get to the ProPILOT Assist 2.0 system, this version offers hands-off driver assist technology in conditions like mapped highways. You can also smoothly change lanes with ProPILOT Assist 2.0 with its hands-on guided lane changing ability. ProPILOT Assist 2.0 is offered on the Nissan ARIYA model.
ProPILOT Assist 2.1
The most advanced version of the ProPILOT Assist technology is the 2.1, and this driving system is available on the 2025 Nissan Rogue. This version incorporates the previous technologies, but takes things a bit further with the ability to assist with lane change, use Intelligent Cruise Control, and have real-time traffic monitoring, as well as incorporate hands-free driving.
Regardless of the ProPILOT Assist version you’re using, the system uses radar sensors and one or multiple cameras that can be influenced by adverse driving conditions. There are various limitations to the systems to be aware of, ranging from weather conditions to lane markings and different traffic conditions. For instance, some limitations can include snow and ice build up and heavy rain, as well as lane markers that are faded and if there are tollbooths.
