This gives Mondeo a great advantage in the performance of the car's seating space.
In the scooter, a 1.1m large screen that runs through the entire central control area is the biggest highlight, integrating a 12.3-inch full-color digital LCD dashboard and a 27-inch 4K central control screen, which can realize the split screen and the whole screen freely switch, so that the main and co-drivers can cooperate or act separately. This screen is equipped with THE SYNC+2.0 system and the FNV2 electronic architecture of the same FNV2 of the Ford Mustang Mach-E, providing the OTA upgrade function of the whole vehicle, and also allowing the new Mondeo to have a scientific and technological power comparable to the new forces.
