Default Sync informat

This is the Sync I have.

Am I stuck with this or will it ever be updated. I have updated all except to 4.6 which I know is all internal stuff.

I don't have any issues with it. But every time I go to Ford site and enter all my info on MyFord it shows the next version.

Just wondering.

Only Ford knows, but since Sync 3 is out, I doubt there will be much, if any updates to the older hardware.

Also, there is no chance of Sync 3 coming to older hardware because it is an entirely new operating system that the older hardware cannot support.

Hi everyone,

Although SYNC 3 is out, we haven't forgotten about our previous systems. Support will continue and updates will be released when needed.

Officially, I think it is considered Sync 2, although I would personally consider it "Sync 1" if you are looking at it from a hardware perspective (eg. map updates on DVD instead of SD Card). I consider Sync 2 to be the 4.2" display and 8" MFT display that uses maps on SD cards. Sync 3 is the brand new one that has maps build into the unit and has Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
