The Ford Mustang is known for its impeccable style and remarkable performance, but today, we're going to look closely at its technology features. In this article, we'll focus on the comfort and convenience technology, entertainment technology, and even safety technology. By reading this review, you'll know enough about the 2017 Ford Mustang technology features to help you decide if it's the right vehicle for you.
2017 Ford Mustang: Comfort & Convenience Technology
Starting right off with the convenience technology is the push-button start. This feature allows you to start your engine without having to dig out the keys and stick them in the ignition. Of course, you also have the option of including the remote start system-only available with the automatic transmission pairing.
In terms of comfort, the 2017 Ford Mustang features the optional 6-way power adjustable seat with lumbar support. You can upgrade to include heated and cooled seats, or even the memory system that remembers your preferred seating and mirror positions, as well as your preferred ambient lighting. All trim levels include the auto-dimming rearview mirror, which limits the amount of rear light reflecting into your eyes.
Entertainment Technology
The Ford Mustang V6 Fastback and EcoBoost® Fastback both feature a 6-speaker sound system. The Premium and GT Premium Fastback trims feature the 9-speaker sound system. Every trim level of the Ford Mustang comes equipped with an AM/FM radio, a CD/MP3 player, and the SYNC® system. This system is comprised of a dashboard-mounted screen, and it features enhanced voice recognition that allows you to access your media by using your voice. The higher trim levels offer the SYNC® 3, which is a larger screen that includes app integration and optional navigation, as well as SiriusXM® Satellite Radio-offered as a 6-month trial subscription.
Safety Technology
The Ford Mustang offers a few helpful safety technology features like the Tire Pressure Monitoring System. This system will detect a drop in tire pressure and will notify you through a dashboard indicator so you can know when to put more air into your tires. The rearview camera helps you back in and out of space more precisely by giving you a clear image feed of your vehicle's rear point of view.
While there are several active and passive safety systems in place that are designed to protect, if an accident occurs, the SOS Post-Crash Alert System™ will kick on. This system will cut off the engine power, stop fuel flow, unlock all the doors, and will even activate your hazard lights to let other drivers on the road know of the emergency situation. The lights are also meant to flag down emergency responders.
