Ford Brings Back the Hard Buttons!

Nov 28 2014

Found on the new 2016 Ford Explorer. It’s replacing a touch-based console.

This photo was taken during the SUV’s advance-reveal at the LA Auto Show. When the announcement was made, the room cheered.

Welcome Back, Buttons and nice one, Ford.

Why I don’t like touch consoles:

Ideally these buttons can be used while your eyes remain on the road… so where’s the logic in using touch, a non-tactile interface which requires more looking? Haptic just makes it worse.

Neat eh.

Found on the steering wheel, of the all-new Platinum trim, of the 2016 Explorer

It’s the 1st time in their 111 year history,
that Ford used a badge on a car that wasn’t blue.

What’s the Best Selling SUV in the World?

Ford’s Explorer.

They sell 1 every 2 minutes, woah eh.

2016 marks the 25th Anniversary.

Remember the first one? 1991.
