When behind the wheel, you want your car to be ready for anything that might come up on the road. Ford delivers on this expectation with the Co-Pilot 360 technology, found in almost every 2024 model. This package includes several advanced safety features that enhance your driving experience and protect you and your passengers. Let’s explore these Ford safety features.
1. Pre-Collision Assist With Automatic Emergency Braking
This system is always scanning the road for things that might come your way, like other cars or people. If a collision is detected, the system will emit a sound and display a message in the message center. If you don’t respond quickly enough, it’ll hit the brakes automatically to help you avoid or lessen the impact of the crash.
2. Lane-Keeping System
Sometimes, it can be easy to zone out, especially during long drives or when fatigue sets in. The lane-keeping system is here to guard against these situations. It keeps an eye on the lane markings and vibrates the wheel if you start to drift out of your lane. If it notices you’re drifting repeatedly, it might even send a reminder to take a break.
3. Auto High-Beam Headlamps
Say goodbye to blinding other drivers at night and fumbling between low to high beams. Auto High-beam headlamps automatically adapt to the surrounding light, giving you the best visibility while ensuring you are not blinding anyone.
4. Blind Spot Information System
Suppose you’re about to change lanes, but there’s a car lurking in your blind spot, completely out of view. That’s where the blind spot information system steps in, lighting up your side mirrors so you can avoid any close calls. This system also has a cross-traffic alert system which warns you about cars coming from the sides when you back out of parking spaces or driveways.
5. Rearview Camera
The rearview camera helps you park like a pro. It uses a wide-angle view camera to see obstacles that might be hidden from your rearview mirror. This feature is especially useful in crowded parking lots or when maneuvering into tricky spots.
6. Adaptive Cruise Control
When cruising down the highway, keeping a comfortable distance from the car in front of you can feel like a nonstop effort. Ford’s adaptive cruise control makes this easier by letting you set the desired distance and speed. Then, it automatically adjusts to keep a safe gap from the vehicle ahead.
These safety features are just a taste of the many innovative features that come with the 2024 models.
