Active park assist - Overview - Lincoln MKT

EPAS is also the primary technology behind the MKT's class-exclusive active park assist (APA). Once engaged via the switch on the center console, ultrasonic sensors precisely measure open spaces to find a suitable parallel parking spot. When engaged, the sensors measure spots and inform the driver of an appropriate spot. With a few actions, the Lincoln MKT steers itself into the open space. The driver retains full control of throttle, brakes and shifting the entire time APA is engaged.
