Traffic information

Regular satellite navigation is no longer enough for the modern motorist. With Ford SYNC 3 connectivity to your smartphone, you are able to not only navigate your routes most efficiently, but also receive realtime traffic updates that will alert you to diversions and traffic. This Live Traffic system will keep you ahead of other road users and comes free of charge for two years with FordPass Connect.

WiFi hotspot

For those travelling in groups or with a young family, the need to keep everyone happy is vital. With a built-in WiFi hotspot providing 4G LTE access, up to ten devices will be able to connect to the internet without using smartphone data allowances. WIth three months or 3GB of complimentary data available with FordPass Connect, followed by the option to purchase data bundles, everyone on board will be able to benefit from streaming services and internet access for an enjoyable ride.

A system that could prove life-saving should you experience an accident, eCall - which first launched in the all-new Ford Focus - reduces the time between any incident and the emergency services tending to your needs. Should you find yourself involved in a collision or accident, FordPass Connect will automatically call the emergency services and provide details of your location. There is also the option of manually triggering the feature via an SOS button in the car.
