SYNC 4A is a cloud-connected in-car communica- tion and entertainment supported by a 15.5-inch full HD touch display that learns from drivers’ behaviour to make smart suggestions. It enables advanced route planning and conversational voice recognition thanks to wireless smartphone integration. In addition, SYNC 4A has Ford’s most advanced voice recognition technology that enables the occupants to be more vocal with voice commands while asking SYNC for directions, to play music, or to manage phone calls and text messaging vocally.
