Ford has been hyping its new FordPass® platform for months now.
Billed as the new standard in mobility applications and vehicle
connectivity, Ford has loaded this app with features and netted a few
high profile partners to sign on to offer exclusive deals to users as
well. Well the time has finally come, as Ford announced thath the
FordPass® platform will be dropping to coincide with the release of its
new 2017 Ford Escape this May.
Now, you may be thinking FordPass® is just another app for your smartphone but you are very wrong in that regard. FordPass® is an integrated mobility platform, providing almost unheard of utility to drivers and equipped vehicles like the new Ford Escape. With FordPass®, drivers can bid farewell to clunky keyfobs required for functions like remote locking and start. FordPass® allows users to access these features from their connected smartphone, as well as checking fuel levels, and using GPS to locate their cars in busy parking lots.
But the conveniences don’t stop when you leave the driver's seat. Using the FordPass® app, drivers can book and pay for parking in certain areas, as well as access a helpful network of Ford Guides to help with whatever situation may arise. In addition, users of the FordPass® platform will earn some special perks from participating partners such as Spotify, McDonalds, and British Petroleum.
So, it seems Ford is once again poised to revolutionize the automotive industry. With FordPass®, users will experience a new level of quality of ownership with their vehicles.
