Ford cars are produced by the same-name American company, which nowadays is the 5th largest automotive concern in the world according to the production volume. It was founded in 1903. The brand made many experiments and discoveries. Particularly, the manufacturer was the first to use an industrial assembly line. Despite rich experience and general acceptance, the company shows no sign of letting up. Its cars are getting more technologically advanced and reliable.

Technical specifications of Ford cars

The Feel The View system was presented in 2018 and became one of the most important technical solutions of the latest years. Its purpose is to help visually impaired people to rebuild the surrounding landscape in their imagination. The technology uses greyscale images of the landscape. Each shade corresponds to vibration of a certain intensity. It is not installed on production cars yet.

EcoBoost engines have won the recognition of experts and drivers. These motors are installed both on production vehicles and on racing cars. Having very compact sizes (it can fit on an A4 piece of paper), the engine provides excellent power and performance. With 1-litre capacity, this engine easily develops 125 hp output. The variable valve timing system and high-pressure fuel injection ensure high torque over a wide RPM range and reduce the fuel consumption. The EcoBoost 1.0 engine is the five-time winner of the “International Engine of the Year” award. Various versions of Focus and Mondeo hatchbacks, saloons and estate cars, Grand C-Max and S-Max multi-purpose vehicles and Kuga crossovers are equipped with this engine.

EcoMode is a branded driver information system that contributes to improved fuel efficiency. It assesses how the driving behaviour affects the fuel consumption and provides tips on how to reduce it to a minimum. For instance, it advises when to slow down or shift gears. Owners of Focus III saloons, Fiesta VI hatchbacks, Transit vans and minivans can assess the advantages of this technology.

The manufacturer cares about the safety of car occupants as well. Apart from various driver assist technologies, many cars are equipped with the Ford SYNC infotainment system with Emergency Assistance. In case of a road accident, e.g., when airbags deploy, the system will connect to your mobile phone via Bluetooth and call emergency services. In some cases this may save life. For example, if the driver is unconscious.
