Glad you added the Carplay reference as the video only shows Google. Also, it shows multiple screens. Wonder if the new EV platform will have that though I doubt it with an $30K price tag.

2025+

Currently only Expedition and Explorer. You're not going to see it on our Sync-based MMEs.

It would be nice to see ford offer some type of retrofit for new hardware. I’d pay for it if it meant I’d get BC 1.5 and this updated experience.

Probably be cheaper, or at least a wash, to just upgrade your car when the time comes. Plus you'd have a new car.

Why multiple screens?

It’s exactly like the Lincoln digital experience that premiered in the new nautilus, except the screens are really tiny. Not at all like our 15.5” screen 😢

It’s based on Android automotive (not to be confused with Android Auto).

Finally a Ford skin on Android Auto. I doubt this will come to any existing SYCN based systems though.
It’s not Android auto. It’s Android automotive. Google’s sort of equivalent to Apple CarPlay ultra, but not exactly.

I stand corrected, it's the same system that GM uses on their EVs now. Pretty responsive compared to SYNC.

I’ve played around with it in a Lincoln. I’m not overly impressed. One of the most annoying things is that you must have a Google account. Remember, in the Google universe, you are the raw material that they commoditize and sell as a product, with few restrictions. If I’m going to be pimped out on a virtual street corner, I would at least like a cut of the take 😀
