Ford to debut SYNC AppLink in the 2011 Fiesta
Ford's SYNC AppLink, which will allow drivers to control smartphone apps through their vehicle's SYNC system, will debut on the 2011 Ford Fiesta
Article Summary
SYNC is Ford's in-vehicle communications and entertainment system that lets drivers make hands-free phone calls, and control things such as their music player via voice commands. Instead of trying to cram more and more functions into SYNC’s virtual brain, Ford engineers have taken a more flexible approach – they’ve created smartphone apps that drivers can control through SYNC, using voice commands or steering wheel buttons. Existing SYNC systems will first require a download of the AppLink software, which will debut on 2011 Ford Fiestas.
