Many of the 2018 Ford Explorer’s best and most advanced new safety and driver assistance features come with the available Safe and Smart Package. These features include adaptive cruise control and collision warning with brake support, the blind spot information system, cross-traffic alert, the lane-keeping system, automatic high beam control and rain-sensing wipers. Other impressive safety features found on the new Ford Explorer include the enhanced active park assist system; park-out assist, which helps you pull out of parallel parking spots; and intelligent all-wheel drive with the Terrain Management System, which sends power where it’s needed for improved handling.
