Once again, misinformation. The P3 cars, namely the XC60 that had radar based cruise control (Forward Aimed Radar(FLR)) also had a camera (Forward Sensing Module (FSM)) mounted behind the windshield. This was the collision avoidance package in 2010 and later named the Technology Package. You could not get the system with ACC without camera which assists with identifying objects, road lines, speed signs and pedestrians. This system is different from the CitySafety System which used straight ahead Lidar (Closing Velocty Module(CVM)) and was standard after 2012 I think. The P3 cars (with collision avoidance) used a mobileye Gen 2 camera in the FSM behind the rear view mirror and a radar unit in the grill. The SPA cars used a MobilEye Gen 3 camera with a long range 76 ghz radar both mounted in a single unit (RaCam) behind the rear view mirror. The newer cars have split the two
again. I don't know why, but I'm not expecting fireworks from the new system.
I am attaching the VIDA for the collision avoidance system and circled in yellow the camera used (FSM)
Here is a EuroNcap test of an Audi which has TWO!!!!! front grill mounted radar. Does about the same as the SPA cars with windshield mounted radar.
