Ford Announces the Rollout of a New ADAS Package |

This month, Ford announced that its new advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) package, the Co-Pilot360 automation suite, will become a standard fitting across all models by 2020, beginning with the 2019 Edge and Edge ST later this year. The ADAS package consists of several systems, including forward-collision warning with active braking and pedestrian detection, lane keeping assist, and blind spot information with cross-traffic assist.
This announcement joins similar moves made by Honda and Toyota, who have also opted to make ADAS packages a default fitting on popular models.
