Ford's next-generation EVs will feature native Apple Maps navigation.
Apple Maps will replace Google Maps as the built-in navigation system.
The new software is expected to improve EV route planning and charging guidance for iPhone users.
Ford is taking its partnership with Apple beyond the basic CarPlay connection. The automaker announced that its next-generation electric vehicles will have Apple Maps built directly into the vehicle's infotainment system. So long, Google.
The new software will debut on Ford's upcoming Universal Electric Vehicle (UEV) platform, starting with the brand's $30,000 mid-size electric pickup. That truck is scheduled to debut sometime in 2027.
