Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)
The Future of Safe Driving
In the ever-evolving automotive landscape, safety remains a top priority for both manufacturers and consumers. For example, the Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) assists the driver with multiple features to keep you and your passengers safe. At Kalispell Ford, we’re excited to offer vehicles equipped with cutting-edge ADAS technology, ensuring our customers enjoy a safer, more confident driving experience.
What is ADAS?
Advanced Driver Assistance Systems encompass a variety of electronic technologies designed to assist drivers in navigating and controlling their vehicles. These systems use sensors, cameras, radar, and other technology to detect and respond to potential hazards on the road. To illustrate, here’s how ADAS is transforming driving:
Enhanced Safety
First, ADAS features such as automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, and blind-spot monitoring help prevent accidents by alerting drivers to potential dangers and, in some cases, taking corrective action autonomously.
Reduced Driver Fatigue
Next, systems like adaptive cruise control and traffic jam assist reduce the strain of long drives or congested traffic by maintaining a set speed and distance from the car ahead, allowing drivers to relax and focus on the road.
Improved Convenience
Likewise, parking assistance and automated parking systems make maneuvering into tight spots a breeze, taking the stress out of parallel and perpendicular parking.
ADAS Technologies in Ford Vehicles
Kalispell Ford is proud to feature a range of vehicles equipped with Ford Co-Pilot360™, a suite of ADAS technologies designed to enhance your driving experience. In fact, here are some standout features:
Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking
This system uses forward-facing cameras and radar to monitor the road ahead for potential collisions. Additionally, if a collision seems imminent, it alerts the driver and can apply the brakes automatically if necessary.
Lane-Keeping System
The lane-keeping system helps you stay in your lane by gently steering the vehicle back if you start to drift unintentionally. Likewise, it also provides alerts to keep you aware of your position on the road.
Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) with Cross-Traffic Alert
BLIS uses radar to detect vehicles in your blind spots and alerts you with a light in the corresponding side mirror. Cross-Traffic Alert assists when backing out of parking spaces by warning you of approaching traffic from either side.
Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go
This advanced version of cruise control maintains a set speed and distance from the vehicle ahead. In fact, it can bring the vehicle to a complete stop in traffic and resume driving when traffic starts moving again. Therefore, making it ideal for highway driving and traffic jams.
