Ford’s SYNC was a brilliant invention that many consumers are looking forward to using and which popular mechanics is honoring as an achievement by giving it a breakthrough award. Popular Mechanics was impressed with the teamwork of Ford and Microsoft working together to create this $395 product.
Popular Mechanics also really liked the fact that SYNC can read your text messages to you and it uses voice recogniton. SYNC will be available on 12 Ford products for the 2008 model year, with more availability in 2009.
Ford wasn’t the only automaker to make its way onto the breakthrough award list, either. GM, BMW, and DaimlerChrysler’s joint Two-Mode Hybrid project was also recognized for its ability to save fuel on the gas guzzlers that need it most.
