Ford Sync 4 Infotainment Review
Hello guys, and welcome back to Car Obsession. It's been a while since I've done an infotainment review, and seeing as Ford has released its 'Sync 4' system I thought it was about time the infotainment reviews make a comeback.
In this video I'll be walking you through the new Ford Sync 4 system, its features as well as testing the in-built sat nav and the park assist. If you have any questions or queries please get in touch, but bear in mind I no longer have the car as it was loaned to me for a week by Ford UK.

I have the ST with Sync 3, and im glad I still have the physical buttons. Feeling buttons without looking is better than trying to adjust your depth perception while driving to touch a small icon on a screen.

@MrFreezeProduct 6 ай бұрын

Same here. Is there anyone who likes those touchscreen controls? What color is your ST? Is it ST 3,5?

@carlosclaptrix 23 күн бұрын

Yeah, buttons are much better than than sliding on a screen.

With Ford Sync 4 you can set up the voice control on the Ford Sync 4 infotainment system to activate when you say Hey Ford you just go to settings for the voice recognition on Ford Sync 4 and go to Voice Recognition settings and tap on the on screen switch that says Listen for wake up word and you can also make a custom wake word

This is really useful thanks. Such a shame that even with such a large screen, Android Auto only displays one app at a time 5:09 - the 1 series I currently drive, which pre-dates this system, has a smaller screen and still manages two apps side by side without having to toggle through them.

When I connect my S22 to the 2023 Focus SYNC4 system, my GPS location in MAP changes to different locations, so it's not working properly.. have done all the updates. While "Maps Go" running simultaneously on the phone shows the correct location, my location appears in very different and wrong places in the SYNC4 Maps program running at the same time. It's really very frustrating. because i can't use map on SYNC4

Does this car have any ambient lighting at all? Changeable colours? Or is it with the performance pack?

@nikolaosezikis7622 4 ай бұрын

Late answer but it does have ambient lighting, only one color though which is blue. It doesn’t have led lines around but the ambient lighting is at the door handles, on the legs of the passenger and few places around. It’s not intrusive and you can control how strong it is through sync 4 but it’s not as impressive as an Audi with ambient lighting

Is the sync 4 worth it compared to sync 3? In which areas is it better and where is the old system better?

It's just a fresher looking system, more modern and slicker - thanks for watching.

It can be full screen of course. Just Apple car play has the “maximize” icon left mid and the android car play has it right and up, press them and you ll get the equivalent CarPlay in full screen
