But that safety is kicked up a couple notches when your new Explorer includes the available Safe and Smart Package. This safety package features adaptive cruise control, 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. Standard, non-package-related safety features found on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.akinsford.com\/new-ford-explorer-winder-ga\">new Ford Explorer<\/a> include the enhanced active park assist system, park-out assist and intelligent all-wheel drive with the Terrain Management System.<\/p>\n<h3>New Technology Features Included in the 2018 Ford Explorer<\/h3>\n<p>Everyone knows how technologically-advanced the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.akinsford.com\/clp-2017-ford-explorer-atlanta-ga\">2017 Ford Explorer<\/a> is. As hard to believe as it may be, the 2018 Explorer is even more advanced. An available 4G embedded modem that includes a Wi-Fi hotspot which can support as many as 10 devices up to 50 feet away from the vehicle tops the list of new technology features included in the 2018 Ford Explorer. But that\u2019s not all. Additional technology features include SYNC Connect with FordPass and everything else you need to stay connected to the world around you while out on the road.<\/p>\n<p>To find out more about the 2018 Ford Explorer or any of our other <a href=\"http:\/\/www.akinsford.com\/new-cars-winder-ga\">new Ford cars, trucks and SUVs<\/a>, please contact our friendly Akins Ford staff near Atlanta, GA.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Technology and Safety Features Included in the 2018 Ford Explorer There\u2019s a lot to love about the new 2018 Ford Explorer.
