LaFontaine INFINITI Ann Arbor – How Does ProPILOT Assist Work on the 2025 INFINITI QX50 for drivers near East Lansing, MI?
Understanding how driver-assist systems function can help you get more out of your next test drive and everyday commute. On the 2025 QX50, ProPILOT Assist brings together Steering Assist and Intelligent Cruise Control to help reduce fatigue on suitable roads when properly engaged, especially during longer highway stretches or stop-and-go traffic. This hands-on system is designed to support your attention, not replace it, by helping you maintain a set speed, a preset following distance, and lane centering inputs as conditions allow.
The magic is in how seamlessly the QX50’s technology works in the background. Steering Assist provides gentle input to help keep you centered, while Intelligent Cruise Control modulates speed to maintain your selected gap to the vehicle ahead. Together, they create a more relaxing experience—one that pairs beautifully with the QX50’s quiet cabin, premium seating, and advanced connectivity through INFINITI InTouch®, which includes a three-year Premium service subscription on 2025 vehicles equipped with InTouch® services.
