A speed limiter that makes more

The speed limiter? Equipment almost present in series on all models of cars, even city cars. Useful when you know that in Europe, there are 35000 radars. With its S-Max, Ford goes further by offering the driver an "intelligent" version of the speed limiter. The goal: to prevent us from exceeding the speed limits for more safety.

The intelligent speed limiter combines 2 technologies:
- A function to manually set the maximum speed of the vehicle.
- A system for recognizing signs . These famous round white and red panels that tell us the maximum speed allowed.

Roll, the Ford S-Max manages your speed

The road is sometimes fraught with pitfalls: a 90 km / h lane can suddenly reach 70 km / h without the driver having noticed the signs. This is often the case, for example, with country nationals where there is a large distance between two panels.

The S-Max takes care of everything and memorizes the smallest details and information on the authorized speeds.

Under the hood, the intelligent speed limiter provides smooth deceleration by controlling engine torque and electronically adjusting the amount of fuel delivered to the engine, rather than using the brakes.

Prevent speed yes! But Ford does not restrain drivers. The intelligent speed limiter of the S-Max allows to set a tolerance up to 10 km / h above the speed detected on the panels.
