Advanced New Safety Features of the 2017 Ford Edge
If you need proof that the 2017 Ford Edge is one of the safety vehicles on the road, all you need to do is check out the fact that it was awarded the highest possible safety rating thanks to its comprehensive suite of advanced new safety features and driver assistance systems. These features and systems include enhanced active park assist with perpendicular parking assist, adaptive cruise control, collision warning with brake support, a 180-degree front camera complete with a lens washer, a rearview camera, the blind sport information system with cross traffic alert and the lane keeping system.
Advanced New Technology Features of the 2017 Ford Edge
In addition to all of those safety features, the new Ford Edge also houses a wide array of advanced new technology features. At the top of this list is the voice-activated SYNC 3 infotainment system. Other advanced new technology features include SiriusXM Radio and new adaptive steering technology that dynamically adjusts the steering response of the front wheels depending on how fast your new Edge is going. Low speeds mean your front wheels turn more with less steering required, while higher speeds mean your 2017 Edge will react more smoothly and precisely as you turn the wheel.
