Safety features include seven airbags (dual front, side-curtain airbags for front- and rear-seat occupants), ABS brakes, hill-start assist, electronic stability control (ESC), rearview camera & parking sensors as standard across all models.
Finally, Ford's five-year/unlimited km warranty provides peace of mind for buyers in New Zealand.
