VW-Group or Opel not even close when IT comes to handling.
Thanks, FORD!

It's been developed around 2005. Used in some Ferrari models to raise the car while approaching the bump. It's been used in Mercedes S Class (W222) since 2014 to adjust the suspension. Unfortunately, this is not a new technology for car manufacturers :)

Developed in Europe but its been in the USA for a while. It uses 12 ultrasonic sensors at the front to detect the potholes.

Those potholes are so small, test them in Michigan, those are potholes 👌😌

Great technology for cars by ford. I don't know about Europe but we definitely need it on Indian roads where there 's less roads and more potholes!

I need this technology on my Ford Fiesta...
From Italy.

I take it they developed the car on UK roads ;)

Wasn't this launched on the facelift Fusion in USA 2 years ago?

This should have been on the latest Mondeo the technology was available in the states years ago and was fitted to the Fusion.

What if both front wheels simultaneously get into a large pothole or a ditch? Will the car jump -- or simply hit the bottom of the ditch with folded shock absorbers?

let's make cars hovering above the road, no more bumps problems...

in Brazil, the holes on the streets will break this system in 2 days 😂😂😂

I am going to buy a new focus. I can't wait until the moment!

We need that in Brazil, but I got my doubts if it would survive without overloading the system or breaking down. ;D Luckily, my city got excellent roads, but some streets at the major cities of São Paulo state are terrible.

Should use Michigan for test grounds, plenty of potholes around here.
