The European New Car Assessment Programme is an independent organisation that focuses upon car safety on new vehicles within Europe. Throughout the year, the group review and release safety details regarding a huge range of vehicles available.
Euro NCAP have just named one of the most popular Ford cars for sale, the Ford Focus, as it’s ‘Best in Class’ small family car. This accolade has broken many records, namely due to the organisation’s five star rating never being achieved on a mass market car before.
Not only did the Ford Focus achieve a five star NCAP rating, but also scooped four Euro NCP ‘Advanced Rewards’ for its innovative safety features that it comes with as standard.
Just some of the Focus’s features that helped the Ford vehicle become so highly decorated include:-
Forward Alert, which is a system that uses radar technology to predict possible collisions.
Active City Stop, another great system from Ford that helps drivers to avoid low speed collisions.
Lane Keeping Technologies, designed to assist drivers who move out of their road lanes unintentionally.
Driver Alert, a system that can detect when a driver becomes tired and in turn suggests rest breaks via warning lights or signals.
So, if you are looking for a wonderfully innovative vehicle with plenty of safety features, why not visit your nearest Ford car dealership and try out the Ford Focus?
