(That said, these don't tend to work well with gloves on, something we'll need to test with the new Sync.)Дriving that responsiveness is a new system-on-a-chip, a Texas Instruments OMAP 5. Indeed, that's provided by a new, capacitive-touch display that's much like those found in modern tablets and phones. Indeed, the only place where anything was slightly sluggish was on pinch-zooming in the new navigation interface, but the fact that pinch-zooming is even possible is a big step forward.

3D buildings will appear if you zoom in far enough. Switching between modes, opening menus, launching apps, all executed quite promptly. And based on my time spent poking and prodding Sync 3 at a briefing in Detroit, I'd say they succeeded. Ford software engineers benchmarked popular smartphones and tablets and set out to reproduce the same level of responsiveness from the new touch interface in Sync. But sometimes you need to cut the cord to properly move forward, and Sync 3 is indeed a big step forward. None of them, sadly, will be able to run the new version of Sync, which will debut in 2015 on 2016 model year cars. Indeed, 95 percent of all Fords sold in the US this year had a Sync system of some sort onboard, and more than 10 million Sync-equipped cars have been sold. 'We've really focused on Sync always being a mainstream product,' said Raj Nair, Ford's new CTO. The concept for Sync remains the same, however: Smart functionality in all cars, not just the expensive ones. Now, however, BlackBerry's low-level QNX operating system provides the foundation of the new Sync 3. Microsoft's Windows Embedded provided the foundation for that first version of Sync, something that continued through the product's evolution.

Introduced way back in 2007 in partnership with Microsoft, Sync was intended to make cars smarter.

Yes, Ford will support Android Auto and CarPlay eventually, but for now it's hoping to stem the tide by introducing a completely new version of its venerable Sync system.
