Inteligent/Safe Driving - Why Drivers Love the Advanced Driver Safety Pack
Driving a motorhome – even a compact, car-like one like the Expedition C71 – can feel daunting if you’re not used to something this size. The Advanced Driver Safety Pack (Fiat’s latest Level 2 driver-assistance suite) turns the C71 into one of the easiest and least stressful large vehicles you’ll ever drive. Many drivers tell us it’s the feature that finally gave them the confidence to take the wheel on long trips or even do all the driving themselves.
Here’s why it’s a game-changer:
It takes the hard work out of motorway and highway driving – perfect when you’re the one doing the long stints while the family relaxes.
The systems gently “co-drive” with you, so the van never feels intimidating, even in traffic, rain, or on unfamiliar roads.
Extra layers of protection give genuine peace of mind when you’ve got kids, pets or precious cargo on board.
It noticeably reduces fatigue – you arrive fresh instead of tense and tired.
What’s Actually in the Advanced Driver Safety Pack?
Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop & Go
Automatically adjusts your speed to match the vehicle in front and can even bring you to a complete stop in traffic, then pull away again. No more constant brake/accelerator juggling on busy roads.
Advanced Emergency Braking (AEBS) with pedestrian & cyclist detection
Scans the road ahead and can brake automatically if someone pulls out or a hazard appears suddenly – a huge reassurance in town or on country lanes.
Lane Centering / Active Lane Keep Assist
Gently steers you back if you start to drift and, on motorways, actively keeps the van perfectly centred in the lane. Brilliant for long-distance comfort and when crosswinds catch the high roof.
Traffic Jam Assist
Combines adaptive cruise and lane centering at low speeds – the van virtually drives itself in stop-start traffic.
Intelligent Speed Assist & Traffic Sign Recognition
Reads speed-limit signs and can limit your speed accordingly (you stay in control, but it prevents accidental speeding).
Driver Attention Assist
Monitors for signs of tiredness and suggests a break if needed.
Blind Spot Monitoring & Rear Cross-Traffic Alert
Lights up the mirrors if there’s a vehicle in your blind spot and warns/brakes if someone’s approaching when you’re reversing out of a space.
Auto High-Beam & Rain/Dusk Sensors
Lights and wipers sort themselves out so you can concentrate on the road.
All of these are displayed clearly on the big 10-inch touchscreen and work seamlessly with the 8-speed automatic gearbox and the wide-track chassis – the C71 already drives like a big car, but with this pack it feels like a very clever modern SUV.
In short, the Advanced Driver Safety Pack doesn’t just make the Expedition C71 safer – it makes it genuinely enjoyable and relaxing to drive, no matter who’s behind the wheel. If you’ve ever felt nervous about handling a motorhome, this pack removes that worry completely.
No need to ask us about adding it to your C71 – all these drivers assist features comes standard!

ABOUT AUTO-TRAIL MOTORHOMES
With more than 30 years experience Auto-Trail are without doubt one of the Worlds premiere motorhome builders. Their motorhomes are designed with style, comfort, quality and functionality so that living your dream is easy. You can also rest assured knowing that the body is backed by an Industry Leading 10 YEAR Body Integrity and Water Ingress Warranty.
CUBE CONSTRUCTION - Performance tested
The Auto-Trail Cube construction system makes a solid connection between bodyshell and chassis, ensuring Auto-Trails are not only amazingly strong and waterproof but also one of the quietest motorhomes on the road anywhere in the world. This is all backed by an Industry Leading 10 Year Body Integrity and Water Ingress Warranty.
Auto-Trail work to achieve the highest classification of insulation and heating accreditation and also regularly use some of the UK’s leading automotive testing facilities like Millbrook in Bedfordshire to gather data on how well their vehicles perform on all manner of different road surfaces and driving situations.
Auto-Trail goes to extraordinary lengths to ensure all its products meet the NCC EN1646-1 standard for thermal insulation, heating and soundproofing. This means the interior of the motorhomes will maintain +23°C with outside temperature variants of -15°C to 38°C. This is the highest standard achievable for motorhomes and not available in any Australian manufactured RV.
Aerodynamic exterior styling ensures air and water are guided around the body. A structural aluminium extrusion that is bonded and also bolted to the edge of the pressed floor ensures the integrity of our habitation compartments. All of our models have 40mm insulation in the floor and sidewalls and 45mm in the roof for superb thermal performance and soundproofing throughout the year.
To enhance the look of the vehicle and to add further protection against water ingress, the entire upper cab/roof and rear panel is capped off using GRP moulded panels. The formed panels are also bonded in place, with Henkel adhesive to ensure a watertight seal. You simply will not find a better built motorhomer!
Cutting edge technology
Continuous investment in research and design enables Auto-Trail to engineer the best motorhomes that are reliant and robust and has been central to the success of the brand. We use in-house 3D printers to rapidly prototype components and fixings which can then be put through their paces in our test programmes.
