Brake Override System In Cars

TOYOTA Motor Corp yesterday said it will install brake override systems on cars it sold in China by the end of this year to prevent unintended acceleration.

All new vehicles will also come with the software, which cuts engine power when moderate force is applied to the brakes while the accelerator is also engaged, the company said in an e-mailed statement.

Toyota recalled 75,552 RAV4 sport-utility vehicles in China in late January.
