Active park assist
EPAS is also the primary technology behind the available active park assist (APA) system.
Once engaged via a switch on the center console, ultrasonic sensors precisely measure open spaces to find a suitable parallel parking spot. With a few actions (gear shifting, acceleration and braking), the Lincoln MKS steers itself into the open space. The driver retains full control of throttle, brakes and shifting the entire time the APA is engaged.
