We didn’t know but could’ve guessed that the high-tech MyFord Touch system that debuted today would only be available with navigation included, but now Ford has confirmed that fact. When you check off the option box for MyFord Touch in the 2011 Ford Edge or 2012 Ford Focus, it will come with navigation. An interesting note is that the Lincoln version, called MyLincoln Touch, will be standard in the 2011 Lincoln MKX, meaning that the SUV will have navigation standard. Few models of any make, even luxury brands, come with standard navigation.
No pricing for the MyFord option or the MKX itself has been announced. We’d guess that MyFord Touch will have to run similar to or more than the current Sync-powered systems in cars such as the Ford Fusion, whose navigation system costs $1,775.
Ford also revealed the front end of the MyFord media hub, with its two USB ports, SD slot and RCA inputs. That picture is below. All navigation updates will be downloaded via an SD card, the company says.
