MyFord Touch to Be Available On the Chinese Market

The Chinese automotive industry becomes more and more important for automakers around the world. Ford is one of them and the American carmaker recently introduced its MyFord Touch driver connect technology featuring SYNC on the Chinese market.

The system incorporates a new feature like the simplified voice recognition command structure, which allows drivers to accomplish more tasks using fewer words, due to the system’s expanded vocabulary.

MyFord Touch meets any driver’s demands thanks to its multiple choices concerning visual layout, color scheme, and input media.

The system has three LCD screens (on either side of the speedometer and in the center console) as well as a button scheme with influences from modern personal electronic devices.

Various information can be displayed on the LCD screens like fuel-economy, mechanical status, audio settings, climate settings, phone communication, and navigation.

The center screen has a four-corner layout for every feature, thus offering features like phone, navigation, climate, and audio, at a fingertip distance of reach.

MyFord Touch, combined with the new SYNC functionality, is an experience that Chinese drivers will easily relate to their first time behind the wheel,” said Derrick Kuzak, Ford group vice president, Global Product Development.

When you take technology and apply it correctly for automotive use, we think people across the globe, including many first-time buyers in China, will find it easier to utilise their own personal devices while driving a Ford Edge,” he added.

Ford hopes that its system receives a warm welcome on the Chinese market and in the same time, the American automaker expects to increase the sales levels of its local cars once the MyFord Touch system is available.
