Ford Technologies

Ford is known for many things, such as its automotive achievements and popular lineup of vehicles. However, what many don't know is that this brand continues to develop innovative vehicle technologies for the latest amenities on the market. From performance to entertainment, Ford has done it all and incorporated each advanced aspect into their vehicles every year.

To shine a light on their innovations, here's a list of technologies you can only find in a new Ford model.

EcoBoost Engines

For years, Ford has worked to develop performance that balances power and fuel economy. After some time, their work led them to the creation of turbocharged EcoBoost engines. Seen in almost all Ford models, these direct injection parts are designed to generate the acceleration many crave while still providing incredibly efficient fuel economy.

Terrain Management System

Ford models are popular everywhere in the country. So to cater to drivers far and wide, the Terrain Management System was developed. With this, drivers can select one of four settings that match the terrain outside. When set, the vehicle will configure its performance to optimize traction and stability.

SelectShift Transmission

Working together with the engines, the SelectShift transmission gives drivers the freedom to choose between different shifting options based on their preferences. This feature offers the regular drive mode for everyday rides and multiple Sport modes for highway cruising.

SYNC System

The Ford SYNC system is one of the most popular automotive features, and it comes in three different options: SYNC with MyFord, SYNC with MyFord Touch, and SYNC 3. Each has the ability to display useful information for your travels.

With SYNC with MyFord Touch and the new SYNC 3, you'll also get navigation, enhanced voice recognition, and smartphone integration.

SYNC AppLink

In conjunction with the infotainment system mentioned above is SYNC AppLink. With this, you can use voice commands to control your connected smartphone and access a number of mobile apps for more entertainment.

Pre-Collison Assist with Pedestrian Detection Technology

With the new Pre-Collision Assist with Pedestrian Detection Technology, drivers are warned when they're approaching a vehicle or pedestrian too quickly. The system will also apply full braking force if you don't react in time. Using a radar, it scans the road ahead for any vehicles, pedestrians, or obstructions. If one is detected, a sound will chime for you to slow down.

MyKey

MyKey can be seen on the dashboard of several Ford models. With this, you're reminded of seatbelt statuses and warned about low fuel levels. This also allows you to activate maximum speed and sound volume restrictions for those who borrow your vehicle.

Ford vehicle technology has grown throughout the years and continue to bring the latest innovations for those in Norfolk, Virginia Beach, and beyond. This year's lineup of Ford models is home to some of these technologies.
