Ford Territory’s unique headlight design makes night driving less dazzling


The Christmas season often means more night driving – heading to malls for gift shopping, attending family reunions, and enjoying dinners out with friends. While festive, driving at night can pose safety challenges, making it essential to choose a vehicle that prioritizes road safety for everyone. One such vehicle equipped with advanced lighting features is the Ford Territory.

With its Auto High Beam feature, the Ford Territory ensures drivers can see more of the road without the risk of dazzling other road users. This system employs a forward-facing camera located near the rear-view mirror on the windshield, also utilized by the vehicle’s active safety system. The camera monitors the road ahead and automatically adjusts the high beam when it detects the head or taillights of other vehicles. Unlike abrupt transitions, the system smoothly modulates the lighting intensity, allowing the driver’s eyes to adapt more comfortably to changes in light conditions.

The all-LED headlights feature five low-beam LEDs, supplemented by four additional LEDs when high-beam mode is activated, extending illumination from 105 meters to 117 meters. Select Territory variants also come with static turning lamps integrated into the fog lights, enhancing visibility through turns by lighting up the road’s edges.

Clever Design Ford designed the Territory to seamlessly combine the commanding presence of its SUV lineup with the dynamic sportiness of its performance vehicles. This design philosophy, known as “Progressive Energy in Strength,” is evident in every detail of the Territory’s exterior.

The front-end features a striking integrated grille and LED daytime running lights that span coast-to-coast. The main headlights are positioned lower on the front fascia, while bold corners emphasize the vehicle’s width and robust stance, mirroring the commanding presence of Ford’s larger SUVs like the Everest and Explorer.

Do note that Driver-assist features are supplemental and do not replace the driver’s attention, judgment, or need to control the vehicle. These systems may not operate at certain speeds or under specific driving, road, or weather conditions.
