The 2024 Lincoln Nautilus can be described in numerous ways: luxurious, feature-packed, stylish, and more. And, thanks to the many driver assistance features, it can most definitely be described as safe. Let’s take a look at what those driver assistance features are and how they give you a more secure ride.

4 Safety Features of the 2024 Lincoln Nautilus

1. Adaptive Cruise Control

Adaptive Cruise Control aims to make your driving experience more relaxed as well as safer. The feature has Stop and Go and Lane Centering, making it even more functional than the basic Adaptive Cruise Control offered by many other automakers.

Cameras and radar sensors give your car the information it needs to adjust its speed and keep a safe distance from the car ahead, and it can even fully stop and then begin driving again once traffic starts moving. Cruise Control can even identify street signs, enabling the car to abide by the rules of the road while this feature is in use.

2. Lane-Keeping System

It can be easy to accidentally drift toward the edge of your lane when there are distractions while you’re driving, so your Lincoln Nautilus aims to prevent you from doing that. There’s a camera behind the rearview mirror, which scans the road to identify lane markings. It also monitors your driving so it can detect when you’re accidentally drifting too close to the edge of your lane.

The system sends you an alert via your instrument cluster when it detects you drifting unintentionally toward the edge of your lane. If necessary, this driver assistance feature can apply corrective steering to gently move you back into the middle of the correct lane.

3. Pre-Collision Assist with Pedestrian Detection

Your Lincoln Nautilus uses radar and camera tech to monitor the road in front of you. When it detects a pedestrian or vehicle in your path that you could collide with, it sends you a warning about the potential crash.

The warning aims to give you time to respond to the situation, but if you can’t respond in time, then your car can handle it. The Nautilus will automatically apply your brakes in an attempt to mitigate the collision. If you can’t avoid the collision entirely, then the braking can help lessen the severity of the crash.

4. Blind Spot Information System

There’s radar in the rear quarter panels of your car, and it scans your blind spots. When the radar detects a vehicle entering one of your blind spots, the Blind Spot Information System sends you an alert that you can view in one of your side mirrors.

Come and see the Lincoln Nautilus in person at Astro Lincoln in Pensacola, FL. It has so much to offer, and you can explore it when you take it out for a test drive.
