With a growing emphasis on safety, many mass-market brands in India now offer ADAS-equipped models at competitive prices. The technology is available in two levels—Level 1, which includes features like Forward Collision Warning and Lane Keep Assist, and Level 2, which adds Adaptive Cruise Control and Blind Spot Monitoring.
