Aug 09, 2009
If you get used to comfortable driving you will be fascinated by this out of this world Active Park Assist system from Ford. The system offers perfect effortless parallel-parking techniques. It seems to be a high quality convenience feature that many Ford lovers will appreciate. Parking experience has never been so easy.

So if you drive around the street and want to park, just press the instrument panel button positioned next to the gear box and the system’s sensors will start scanning the area in order to find an ideal parking lot whether it is on the right or on the left of the car. As soon as the system detects the right parking spot it will let you know about this.

Then the driver should engage the reverse gear and the system will do the rest of the parking work. While the car is parking, all the driver need is just apply a gas and brake pedal carefully and change the gears. The process is done hands off as the steering is performed automatically.

Around 30 or 40 seconds are needed to park your car since the system finds an available parking spot. The collision warning system is able to inform you both visually and audibly about the distance between your car and an upcoming object. Ford allows intuitive parallel parking with a single touch of the instrument panel button.

The system is expected to be on Lincoln MKS sedan as well as new Lincoln MKT crossovers. The system allows ecologically friendly parking while saving up to 5 per cent of fuel cost thus reducing CO2 emissions something you will not achieve using standard parking techniques. The system runs on an electric engine mounted to the car’s battery.
