Ford Moves Aggressively for
Mainstream Navigation System
by Jenny McLane
Ford now looks at the latest trend for auto manufacturers of putting navigation
system on mainstream cars even as an option.
Among the six Ford 2006 Ford Motor vehicles to offer navigation systems are the
2006 Lincoln Zephyr and Mercury Mountaineer while the other four nameplates are
said to be the Ford Explorer and Explorer Sport Trac SUVs,
Five Hundred sedan
and Freestyle sport wagon.
The idea of popularizing car navigation system on mass produced Ford cars is an
attractive feature for most car enthusiasts. Common only in the luxury segment
such as the Lincoln Navigator, on which the option costs around $3,000 on the
4x4 Ultimate editions, the car navigation system will soon be more affordable as
foreseen by Ford.
This is an aggressive step by Ford to be competitive and sway the family sedan
market into its turf. Mainstream vehicles will soon find car navigation system
on its option list as hand held global positioning phones and the concept of
beaming satellite map data into the vehicles are also being considered by auto
makers.
Popularizing car navigation system will better enhance the features of mass
produced Ford vehicles and make it more affordable.
