Ford has just announced the next-generation SYNC AppLink system will be offered in the 2015 Mustang which goes on sale later this year.
According to the North American carmaker, the SYNC AppLink system boasts simpler in-vehicle menus and enhanced voice control. The system can also provide apps with access to a variety of real-time vehicle data such as speed, acceleration, odometer and location that can be used by the connected app to further customize and personalize the user experience.
"Ford led the industry in giving drivers the ability to control their smartphone apps on the go with the introduction of SYNC AppLink in 2010," said Raj Nair, Ford group vice president of global product development. "We are now making the in-vehicle app experience simpler and more intuitive to further help drivers keep their hands on the wheel and eyes on the road."
