Ford’s Research and Advanced Engineering division utilised developments made with Active Park Assist and Ford PowerShift transmission to produce a Ford Focus equipped with the prototype Fully Assisted Parking Aid system.
The push-button parking technology, which can be operated from outside the car via remote control, operates steering, gear selection and forward and reverse motion.
