Do you need a HUD for distance alert?

[Partridge]

2 things.
1. HUD requires special windshield with some sort of special coating I believe.

2. I think there is confusion between distance alert and automatic emergency braking /crash alerts. Distance alert, only available with HUD is a warning that your speed is too aggressive vs AEB warning which is an alert that you are likly toncrash if you dony slam on the brakes. P3 cars had dash leds for AEB, but SPA will just beep and show something on dash. The distance warning is only on HUD and I have mine turned off. Its useless.

Depends on the market and configuration. This is from an SPA xc90 manual. Some cars still had the same style lights reflecting onto the windshield like the P3’s.




Here’s an image of the light panel from the outside. (Non-HUD equipped car)
