Ford-backed Argo AI, a self-driving technology company, has recently been making massive strides in the development of commercial autonomous vehicles in recent years. Earlier this week, Argo AI announced that they have developed an all-new Lidar sensor, which they believe could seriously change the game.
There are a considerable number of moving parts that go into a comfortable driving experience. High-quality vehicles are not purely determined by their gas mileage, powertrain, and cargo space. Exceptional vehicles provide a better driving experience than their counterparts.
One way that Ford vehicles, like the new EcoSport, outshine their competitors is through sound. The EcoSport is equipped with a B&O Sound System by Bang & Olufsen. This sophisticated system is specifically designed for the cabin of the EcoSport to provide an enjoyable listening experience. With 10 speakers, the B&O system truly is surround sound.

Remember when Ford showed us their high-tech crib that mimicked the sounds, movements, and sights of a night time car ride? The crib was supposed to be the ultimate emulator for that peaceful sleep babies fall into during a night time drive. Now, Ford has unveiled its prototype Lane-Keeping Bed so that adults can get in on the high-tech sleeping experience.
While this bed doesn’t simulate a car ride, it does something that might make for an even better nights sleep: it keeps your partner on their side. The Lane-Keeping Bed uses inspiration from the motor company’s Lane-Keeping…
The Ford F-150 is the poster vehicle for toughness. The pickup is built to withstand constant heavy activity, while also performing under the pressure. In this way, the F-150 is built quite similarly to a star football offensive line.
Like a long snapper, the F-150 is accurate from a distance. With state-of-the-art driver assist technology, the pickup is able to attach to a boat trailer with ease. Like the best offensive lines, the F-150 is built tough. This is why it is the bar. To learn more, check out the video above.
What can you accomplish in a minute at your work? For many workers, a minute just isn’t enough time to get any measurable work done. However, at the Rouge Complex, Ford is able to build a Ford F-150 every 53 seconds.
This remarkable feat would not be able to happen without the advanced technology at Ford’s disposal. However, the process is far from completely automated, with workers being integral in developing a superior pickup. The F-150 is America’s favorite vehicle, and with production set at less than a minute per vehicle, Ford is able to meet the…
Technology is constantly changing and advancing. This is perhaps most evident in recent years. The still-young 21st century has been filled with rapidly advancing technology that continually exceeds its predecessors. While this advancement shows itself in many fields, one field in which it is particularly clear is the automotive industry.
One such technological advance is autonomous technology. These advanced systems allow vehicles to drive themselves, completely without a driver. Ford has been spearheading research and development into these vehicles. The company believes that self-driving vehicles may be the answer to some of the nation’s mobility issues, like traffic…
In the increasingly-advanced automotive industry, one technology stands at the forefront of innovation; autonomous vehicles. Self-driving vehicles are being heavily tested and developed, and soon may be a common sight on the road.
In preparation for such an event, Ford has partnered with Postmates to bring self-driving vehicles to Miami. Ford is utilizing its self-driving vans to make deliveries, and test how customers react. With successful tests, Ford looks to self-driving deliveries in the future.
No matter if you’re in a work-ready pickup truck or a performance-oriented sports car, you’ve felt the effects — and the differences — of a vehicle’s suspension.
A suspension system includes a vehicle's tires, springs, shock absorbers and connecting parts and is designed to connect a vehicle to its wheels and allow the necessary amount of motion between the two. The suspension system contributes to both a vehicle’s handling and its ride quality, making it an extremely important factor in a vehicle’s safety and comfort.
Put bluntly, the suspension absorbs energy from the road. It absorbs…
Many customers know a lot about their Ford truck or car. Its horsepower, its torque, its towing capability. What many people don’t know is exactly how their vehicle is made. In this video, you can take a peak at Ford’s production process.
The company uses a blended manufacturing process. That is, they use both robots and human workers. This approach has led Ford to having a very efficient and high-producing plant.
