MyFord Touch makes its way into the 2014 Fiesta



Ford took the wraps off its refreshed Fiesta at the Paris Motor Show, but we'll have to wait to see our version of the car debut in Los Angeles a little bit later in the week. Until then, Ford has made it official that the 2014 Fiesta will be available with the MyFord Touch infotainment system. The European-spec version of the car is shown above.

Like other current Ford products, there will likely be two versions of MyFord Touch in the new Fiesta: a base system with regular controls and one with a Sony-branded audio system with capacitive touch buttons. Both will get a bigger 6.5-inch screen that should be far more attractive than the red-tinted display in current models. For Fiesta buyers, MyFord Touch will be an optional upgrade from the Sync system, and it will offer features such as Bluetooth connectivity and voice recognition. While Ford is still working on perfecting the operation of its MyFord Touch, the latest version is simpler to use than the system's original software.

Very nice steering wheel and materials in a sub compact. Euro spec only I presume

that sea of buttons is ridiculous, and the vents kinda blend in making it look like there's even more. on a more positive note it does look fairly attractive overall. now if it's actually usable...

like I mentioned above, the materials look pretty decent for a subcompact. Navigation should be an option considering the Fit offers it. Maybe come refresh
