2022 Ford Super Duty will receive new technology and styling updates

Work smarter, not harder. This is the idea behind the latest technological update of Ford Super Duty in 2022. In order to supplement the new interior technology range, Ford also provides different styling kits and exterior colors for the 2022 Super Duty. Owners of Super Duty trucks count on their vehicles to handle some of the roughest and dirtiest jobs, but there is no reason why you can’t look good while doing these jobs and enjoy the cool technology. At least, according to Ford.

“Super Duty customers aren’t just working harder these days; they are also working smarter,” explained Todd Eckert, Ford Truck Group Marketing manager. “We’re further helping our customers raise their game and get the job done with purposeful technology through the introduction of SYNC 4 with a larger 12-inch screen and 24/7 cloud connectivity for both their truck and mobile devices.”

The Super Duty’s new 12-inch center touchscreen, which Ford describes as landscape-oriented, is standard on Lariat and above.

SYNC 4 allows for wireless use of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, along with all of the SYNC AppLink apps. Suppose you forget something about your new Super Duty, no worries there. A digital owner’s manual is available via the new SYNC 4 system. Furthermore, the 2022 Super Duty is available with a variety of standard and optional Co-Pilot360 features.

“These additions build on the major updates we made for 2020, and we keep working hard to bring the best in capability and productivity to assist our hard
