Ford is expanding its Sync3 connectivity platform, which means consumers will be able to use Apple CarPlay ad Android Auto through the automaker’s entire 2017 fleet. Over-the-air updates via WiFi will help ensure drivers can keep up with the latest technology.
“Ford is not taking the traditional approach of introducing Apple CarPlay and Google Android Auto on a few piecemeal models or as an expensive option on luxury vehicles only,” says Jeffrey Hannah, Director of North America for global automotive technology research firm SBD. The guesswork for consumers is over – if you buy any 2017 Ford vehicle with SYNC 3, you drive off the lot with both of these innovative technologies ready to go.”
