Garmin International said its navigation technology would be used in the recently announced Ford next generation Sync communications and entertainment system for the electric Mustang Mach-E.

Later in 2020, Sync users will have access to Garmin navigation features including cloud-based mapping and routing, electric vehicle (EV) routing, range management details, and the latest connected services.

"We are delighted to embark on our first collaboration with Ford Motor Company and look forward to expanding our offerings across multiple vehicle platforms in the future," said Matt Munn, Garmin automotive OEM managing director.

"The introduction of Garmin's innovative navigation features to the Sync platform in the Mach-E will help ensure that Ford's all electric customer base stays connected at all times."

Garmin claims it helps Sync distinguish itself from traditional embedded navigation systems, thanks to connected maps and EV-specific features. The platform also retains on board maps and routing so navigation is available through dead zones.
