Imagine TELLING your vehicle audio system or your Bluetooth system to perform functions! This concept of speaking to your car, literally, an innovative feature of immeasurable depth and dimension, is aptly called SYNC.

Predictably, it has been pioneered by Ford Motor Company and Microsoft. 2008 models of the Ford Edge and Focus SES have this ultra-flexible software platform, developed in partnership with Microsoft, whereby all you need to do is TELL your car to play music or make a phone call, and it listens!

We are proud to be part of a company that is leading the way in innovation. With this latest technology, you can bring any of these digital media players - Apple iPods, Microsoft Zunes and other MP3 players, as well as Bluetooth - enabled mobile phones, into your car, and tell them to perform, and they do!
