Does Ford Co pilot360 2.0 include adaptive cruise control?

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is included in Ford’s driver-assist lineup as part of Co-Pilot360 2.0, specifically within the Assist 2.0 package on many recent models. The feature is not present in the base Co-Pilot360 on all trims and may require upgrading or choosing a higher-level configuration, depending on year and market.

Understanding Co-Pilot360 2.0 and ACC

Ford’s Co-Pilot360 2.0 is the second generation of its driver-assist suite, designed to bundle more advanced features into a single package. Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go is included as a core element of the Assist 2.0 tier, which means you typically need the Assist 2.0 (or higher) to get ACC. Availability can vary by model year and market; some models label the package as Co-Pilot360 Assist 2.0 rather than simply Co-Pilot360 2.0.

What features accompany ACC

In practice, ACC is marketed alongside other driver assists that Ford groups under the same package. Here are the features often bundled with Co-Pilot360 Assist 2.0:

• Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go


• Lane-Centering Assist (where available)


• Lane-Keeping System


• Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking and Pedestrian Detection


• Blind Spot Information System with Cross-Traffic Alert

Note that the exact lineup varies by model year and trim, and some regions may offer different feature sets under the same branding.

How to verify ACC on your Ford

To confirm whether a specific vehicle has Adaptive Cruise Control as part of Co-Pilot360 2.0, use these checks:

1. Review the window sticker or online configuration for "Co-Pilot360 Assist 2.0" or "Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go."


2. In the vehicle’s touchscreen, navigate to Settings > Driver Assist or Vehicle > Driver Assist to see whether Adaptive Cruise Control (with Stop-and-Go) is listed.


3. Consult the owner's manual or contact a Ford dealer with your VIN for model-specific confirmation.

With those checks, you can confirm whether your vehicle has Adaptive Cruise Control under Co-Pilot360 2.0. If ACC is absent, your model may be equipped with the base Co-Pilot360 package, or you may need to upgrade to Assist 2.0 or higher, depending on year and region.

Summary

Bottom line: Ford's Co-Pilot360 2.0 does include Adaptive Cruise Control as part of the Assist 2.0 package on many current models, though you’ll typically need a mid- to high-level trim or an optional upgrade. Always verify with the dealer or window sticker for your exact vehicle’s configuration, as packaging can vary by year, model, and market.

How do I know if I have Adaptive Cruise Control?

You can tell if you have adaptive cruise control by checking for a specific icon on your dashboard, looking for dedicated buttons on your steering wheel (like an "ADAPTIVE" button or a distance control button), or by inspecting the front of your car for a radar sensor behind the grille. If your car can automatically adjust its speed to match the vehicle in front of it, it has adaptive cruise control.

Check your dashboard 

• Look for a specific icon when you turn your car on. It might look like a speedometer with a car in front of it or a car with lines trailing behind it. 
• When you activate the system, the icon may change color. For example, in some vehicles, a white icon means it's on but not active, while a green icon means the system is actively following a vehicle. 

Examine your steering wheel

• Look for a set of buttons on your steering wheel. Adaptive cruise control systems often have a button to turn the system on or off, and a way to set your desired following distance, according to Reddit and Ranger5G.com users. 
• Some vehicles may have a separate "cancel" button or may require you to press and hold the cruise button to switch between adaptive and regular cruise control, notes GMC and Reddit users. 
• In some newer cars, the cruise control system may automatically engage and you don't need a separate "on" button.

Look for a sensor on your car 

• Check the front of your car, usually behind the grille or bumper. Adaptive cruise control systems use a radar sensor to detect other vehicles, so you may see a small square panel located behind the license plate or grille, says Bimmerpost.

Test the feature

• The most definitive way to know is to test the feature. If you are driving on the highway and engage your cruise control, it will slow down to match the speed of the vehicle in front of you. You can then deactivate it by pressing the "cancel" button or tapping the brake.
