What is the Safest SUV on the Market?
The award-winning 2024 Ford Explorer is not only Ford's safest family SUV, but it's also been voted IIHS's Top Safety Pick+, acing every test for crash prevention & mitigation, crashworthiness, child restraints, and seatbelts. Loaded with advanced features to enhance its overall safety performance, the 2024 Ford Explorer delivers innovative advancements like line-keeping and automatic assistance. Let's explore some of the intelligent technologies this award-winning SUV is enhanced with.
Auto High-Beam Headlamps: To brighten up the way, the automatic high beams activate during low light and weather conditions, automatically going dim when an oncoming vehicle is approaching, then resuming the original brightness.
Post-Collision Braking: When a crash occurs, sensing the collision impact, Ford's safest family SUV automatically begins braking to prevent further damage through acceleration.
Rear Parking Sensors: Providing convenience when driving in reverse, the 2024 Ford Explorer provides alerts when driving backward to indicate when there are pedestrians, vehicles, or other physical obstacles behind the car. The SUV will begin to beep as it moves closer to the obstacle.
BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System) with Cross Traffic Alert: Blind spots are a common cause of accidents, and BLIS® makes it easier for drivers to avoid collisions with alerts. When another vehicle or a pedestrian is identified by the blind spot sensors, the driver will be alerted. Cross Traffic Alert enhances BLIS® by monitoring the traffic and movement directly behind Ford's safest family SUV when leaving a parking spot to prevent backing into other vehicles and pedestrians.
Pre-Collision Assist® with Automatic Emergency Braking: While attention should always be on the road when driving, Pre-Collision Assist® with AEB helps drivers by mitigating the potential for an accident by alerting when vehicles or pedestrians are in front of the car and automatically braking. Whether on public streets or in bumper-to-bumper traffic, this feature helps during moments of human error.
Lane-Keeping System: Stay in between the lines and in your lane. The Lane-Keeping System helps drivers by determining the 2024 Ford Explorer's placement within the lane, detecting the parallel lines of the road, and alerting the driver when the vehicle begins to depart the lane. If the system detects that the SUV has left the lane more than once, it will notify the driver to take a break from driving by displaying a coffee cup icon.
Adaptive Cruise Control: The 2024 Ford Explorer comes equipped with Adaptive Cruise Control, allowing the vehicle to detect the distance of the car in front of it and its speed, adjusting to match it. When the vehicle ahead begins to slow or come to a stop, ACC detects it, automatically braking or coming to a stop. As traffic begins to move again, so does the SUV.
Rear View Camera: Backing up is a breeze when it's easy to see. Ford's safest family SUV is equipped with a rear view camera to help the driver monitor what's behind the vehicle through the available 10.1-in. LCD touchscreen, making it easier to avoid reversing into other vehicles and pedestrians.
Available Active Park Assist 2.0: Parallel parking can be stressful to many, especially on busy city streets, and the available Active Park Assist 2.0 aids by automatically parking the 2024 Ford Explorer. This feature works for both perpendicular and parallel parking.
