The 2024 Ford Edge comes equipped with Ford’s cutting-edge Co-Pilot360 suite of advanced safety features to keep you safe on the road. Visit your local Ford dealer for an up-close look at how these safety features work in the latest Ford Edge models.
Pre-Collision Assist With Automatic Emergency Braking
Ford’s pre-collision assist with automatic emergency braking constantly scans the road ahead for potential hazards. Using advanced cameras and sensors, it detects vehicles, pedestrians, and obstacles in your path. The system alerts you of a potential collision, and if you don’t react in time, it automatically applies the brakes to prevent an accident.
Lane-Keeping System
This system uses a forward-facing camera to monitor lane markings and detect when you are unintentionally drifting from your lane. If you do, the system vibrates the steering wheel to alert you. It can also provide gentle steering to nudge you back into the center of your lane.
Blind Spot Information System (BLIS)
Blind spots can be a driver’s worst enemy, but Ford’s BLIS has your back. It uses radar sensors to monitor blind spots and alert you of their presence. BLIS also has a rear cross-traffic alert system, which detects vehicles approaching from the sides as you’re slowly backing out of a parking spot.
Auto High-Beam Headlamps
Ford’s auto high-beam headlamps make night drives a breeze. The system automatically switches between high and low beams, ensuring optimal visibility without blinding oncoming traffic. No more constantly flicking the high-beam stalk. Just turn on auto high-beam lamps, and the system will do the work for you.
Hill Start Assist
Hill start assist comes in handy after you have come to a stop on an uphill slope. When you start your car from this position, it would normally roll back as you shift your foot from the brake pedal to the gas pedal. Hill start assist keeps the brakes applied to prevent rollback as you move your foot to the accelerator.
Co-Pilot360 Assist+
Higher trims of the 2024 Edge provide the option of upgrading to Co-Pilot360 Assist+, which adds extra safety technologies. You will get adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go and lane centering, which maintains a preset speed and distance from the car in front of you. It can also stop the car completely and steer you back to your lane when needed.
This suite also adds evasive steering assist and an enhanced active park assist system. If you are involved in a collision, post-collision braking applies moderate braking to minimize the severity of a secondary impact.
