Ford Mondeo update announced:: Sync 3 standard across the range

Ford has announced a ‘2016.75’ model-year update for its Mondeo mid-sizer, which now sees the company’s new Sync 3 infotainment system fitted as standard across the range.


Like the Mustang pony car and Ranger ute before it, the updated Mondeo range - on sale now - features the new 8.0-inch touchscreen Sync 3 system that includes niceties such as satellite navigation, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Ford Applink, along with smartphone-like pinch and swipe capability.

The company says this latest update is another example of its commitment to Australian customers, adding to the $2 billion investment into local research and development (R&D) over the past six years.

Ford hopes that the updated Mondeo will build on the model’s growing sales, which are already up from 658 year-to-date this time last year to 1464 this year an increase of 122.5 per cent.

Graeme Whickman, CEO and president of Ford Australia, said: “The addition of Sync 3 makes this outstanding vehicle an even more attractive choice”.

“Sales of the Mondeo powered by the 2.0-litre Ecoboost are up 62.5 per cent year-on-year, as Australian families embrace its fuel efficient yet powerful engine technology, along with its high-tech features,” he added.

Pricing remains unchanged for the updated Mondeo range, which kicks off at $33,190 plus on-road costs for the base Ambiente Ecoboost hatch and tops out at $49,340 plus on-roads for the flagship diesel-powered Titanium wagon.

The only option available is prestige paint, which adds $450 to all models.

Sync 3-equipped Ford Mondeos are on sale now.
