The Galaxy has a range of audio options that add a new dimension to your in-car music experience. For example, you can choose the high-performance Sony audio system. There’s also MP3 playback capability (with a Bluetooth® option), as well as an external AUX jack and a USB port for plugging in and controlling your MP3 player.
See why Galaxy drives brilliantly
Enhanced with all the latest technology, the Galaxy has been specially designed to help make every journey safer, simpler and more engaging for drivers and their passengers.
The Galaxy has a range of new technologies that perfectly suit you and your family’s practical needs – as well as satisfy your desire for some independence.
USB interface and audio streaming
With the Galaxy, you can use a USB connection to plug in your MP3 player and view your favourite tracks on the car’s dashboard display. To control the music, simply operate the HMI controls. Additionally, audio streaming enables you to transfer music and text from your Bluetooth®-enabled music player or mobile phone to the car’s audio system. (Option) Compatible with Bluetooth® Hands-Free and Voice Control System.
Ford Individual Rear Seat Entertainment System (DVD)
The Ford Galaxy’s in-car entertainment features a built-in DVD player with two independently-operated 7" LCD screens, remote control and two wireless headphones. So even your most demanding passengers can enjoy their own personal space with movies and computer games. Includes Component AV inputs. (Option)
Halogen Adaptive Front lighting System (AFS)
With AFS, the headlights swivel to the left or right by up to 15˚ according to your speed and the angle of the steering wheel. So, as you turn the wheel, the dipped lights swivel to illuminate the road as you turn the corner. This boosts forward visibility through bends and creates a safer driving environment. (Optional)
Adjustable Speed Limiting Device (ASLD)
This new driver assistance system is included as part of cruise control. ASLD is designed to help drivers avoid exceeding driver-selected speeds unintentionally – for example, staying within legal speed limits during long road trips. By using enhanced cruise control switches on the steering wheel, you can adjust your top speed limit within a range of 30 to 180 km/h (19 to 112 mph). Should you try to exceed that range, the engine management system intervenes to maintain your set speed limit.
Auto headlights
The lighting technology in the Galaxy has been designed to make night-time driving easier, safer and more comfortable. The headlights automatically turn on when the sensors detect a reduction in light conditions (including when the rain-sensing wipers are in use), which means you won’t need to turn them on at dusk, at night, or when you are going through a tunnel.
FordPower starter button
You no longer need to insert the key into the ignition to start the car. You simply push the power button while holding the clutch down (or brake pedal on an automatic) and the engine fires into life. Also available with the Ford Key-Free System: the keyless entry system that lets you lock and unlock your car without taking your key out of your pocket or bag.
Ford FoldFlatSystem (FFS)
You could be a DIY enthusiast, or your daughter’s mountain bike could need picking up, or maybe you’ve been nominated as roadie for your son’s band. Whatever you and your family need to carry, Galaxy is flexible enough to cope. FFS means each rear seat folds down flush with the floor, plus the second-row seats can also slide and tilt. In total, there are an astonishing 32 possible seating combinations.
Ford Key-Free System
New to Galaxy, the Ford Key-Free System is a keyless entry system that lets you lock and unlock your car, without taking your key out of your pocket or bag. Sensors around the car detect the presence of the ‘passive key’ and activate the locking mechanism accordingly (optional).
Galaxy highlights
When you travel in Galaxy, your individual comfort is always assured. DEATC allows you to set the temperature separately to suit your individual preferences, whether sitting in the driver’s seat, or as a front-seat passenger – with as much as 4ºC variation between each zone. Rear-seat passengers also have a separate compressor that delivers extra cool air, if required available on Titanium.
