Discovering the Ford Digital Experience

The all-new Ford Digital Experience revs up the automaker’s tech game, providing drivers with a personalized digital ecosystem and connected hub that makes driving more fun. This innovative infotainment system is available on select 2025 Ford vehicles, including the 2025 Ford Explorer which you can check out here at your Howell Ford dealership.

The main highlight of the new infotainment system is the high level of personalization. An ample center touchscreen provides an intuitive experience, allowing you to move the various apps around so the ones you use most are easily accessible. Stunning visuals and animations displayed across multiple in-vehicle screens also add a new dimension to your driving experience, keeping everything easily visible to minimize distractions.

From the center stack screen, the driver can also personalize the position of the seat, exterior mirrors, and steering wheel. Moreover, you can link keys and phones so the system can recognize you and recall your settings. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto also come standard, allowing you to send texts and answer calls without taking your eyes off the road.

Google and Alexa Built-In 

Ford’s new Digital Experience is a Google-based system, and by linking your Google account, you can access your preferred apps, including Google Maps with your saved destinations and Google Assistant. You can also download new apps directly from the Play Store, including select games and video conferencing apps.

In addition to Google, Ford’s new infotainment system comes with built-in Alexa. This integration allows you to control your smart home devices from the comfort of your car. Similarly, you can use your home Alexa device for remote vehicle access. For instance, you can turn on the air conditioning to heat or cool the cabin before getting into the car.

Complimentary Ford Premium Connectivity

To make the most out of the Digital Experience, Ford offers a complimentary one-year trial of the 5G Premium Connectivity feature. Once activated, this service enables access to Google Play, the two voice assistants, and other infotainment functions, including real-time traffic updates. When the vehicle is parked, you can use the service to stream videos or play video games directly on the center touchscreen.

An in-vehicle Wi-Fi hotspot is also available with an optional AT&T plan. This connectivity hub supports up to 10 connected devices and has a range of 50 feet away from the vehicle so you can use the internet when camping or moving around a worksite.
