A little over one year ago, The Blue Oval announced that the Ford Mustang Mach-E was set to gain some visual and functional changes to its Sync 4A interface via an over-the-air update. This update included the addition of some new buttons, a new game called Bridge Battle, a revised drive mode interface, and more functionality for the volume knob. Now, the 2021-2023 Ford Mustang Mach-E is set to gain yet another Sync 4A update, too.
This news comes to us from Ford’s UX (HMI) Application Supervisor Ruth Vann, who posted details of this new update on LinkedIn recently. She notes that this update is designed to make the software more intuitive, as well as make functions and apps easier to locate and use. Additionally, the settings screen has been updated to display all of its pertinent information on one page, eliminating the need to scroll down, and has also moved some tools from the settings screen to the apps screen based on customer feedback.
The Ford Mustang Mach-E is also receiving some changes to its Media App in that it now integrates external media sources into one single place, and the icons in the main navigation bar are designed to be sleeker looking and more intuitive.
These changes arrive amid a bevy of updates for the 2024 model year Ford Mustang Mach-E, too. Those include – most notably – the addition of a brand new eMotor that trims weight, adds torque, and improves range. Additionally, the GT Performance Edition will soon be replaced by the new Performance Upgrade – which is standard in the Rally model and adds 100 pound-feet of torque to the Mach-E GT, enabling it to rocket from 0-60 mph in 3.3 seconds.
We’ll have more on the Mach-E soon, so be sure and subscribe to Ford Authority for more Mustang Mach-E news and non-stop Ford news coverage.

AND WHAT ABOUT THE F-150 OWNERS????? ARE WE JUST CHOPPED LIVER???? I’AM “STILL” SUFFERING WITH MY ORIGINAL SOFTWARE (1.0)???? AND OTA UPDATES ARE JUST SILLY STUFF, LIKE DOOR LOCK / APPROACH STUFF THAT U DON’T EVEN NOTICE. I WANT THE NEWER 1.2 1.3 1.4 BLUE CRUISE UPDATE!!! WHAT’S THE PROBLEM F O R D?????
It appears that your computer has a broken Caps Lock button as well!! LOL
What would be really good is if they would tell you what is in each update and how to use it. I honestly don’t know why they don’t do this.
Where is the Blue Cruise 1.3 update we were promised we would get by last Summer?? I swear if this doesn’t come before my 3 year “free BlueCruise” is up in May next year I’ll never buy another EV except for Tesla. The OTA updates are only good if they actually COME!
True, Tesla never promises something is coming soon and it doesn’t. 🙂
Ford is definitely not getting confused with Tesla….
Fix the climate control icons. So many times I have discovered the AC and the heater on at the same time. Put the controls on the same screen for climate control.
Maybe they should fix the blank screen and reset as you drive issue… this is a dangerous system failure.. no speedo or data or systems info available as the system seems to reset as you are driving.. then moves from kmph to mph without warning or choice. It should never update when in use.
So is this story referring to the new Sync 1122 version that you so cleverly didn’t show as a picture to illustrate what the differences are between what people have now and what to expect?
Top row icons have been revised and are all monochrome….that sort of thing would have been spiffy to illustrate with a picture or two. Instead of just repeating something you heard while talking to an insider over lunch somewhere…without getting any details.
