Changes To SYNC®

The goal with SYNC® 3 was to make improvements that would enhance the use of the infotainment system and satisfy the needs of customers. One of the biggest changes is that the new version better recognizes conversational descriptions instead of relying on specific words to provide accurate results.

For example, you can say “Kelowna airport” rather than “Kelowna International Airport”, and the system will understand your meaning. This is a major benefit for those times when you may not know the exact name of a place.

Commands are followed faster on SYNC® 3 to reduce your wait time when you need information. The touchscreen is also more user-friendly and feels more like a smartphone. AppLink has been integrated into this version with software updates completed automatically.

Better User Interface

You now have more options for managing your system with an upgraded touchscreen. You will notice that graphics are clearer and crisper, while information is easier to read. The touchscreen is more intuitive and gives you the ability to swipe or pinch-to-zoom just like you would on your phone. It also comes with a faster response time so you get the information you want quickly.
  • The home screen features three separate zones, including Audio, Phone and Navigation.
  • Audio allows you to change the channels on the radio as well as the volume
  • Phone enables you to make calls or control other features on your smartphone
  • Navigation helps you locate your destination with voice-activated guidance
  • Use the tray along the bottom of the touchscreen to access other areas of the system with SYNC® 3.
  • A bright background makes the screen easier to read in direct sunlight. As you travel in the evening, the background darkens to help prevent eye fatigue and reduce glare. Fonts on the large buttons of the SYNC® 3 system are easy to see and recognize even at a glance.
