Introducing the Webex app for Ford and Lincoln’s new in-vehicle digital experience

Staying connected is paramount to making hybrid work, work. Today’s hybrid workers need to seamlessly navigate between their homes, offices, or the places in between, leveraging an array of mobile devices like smartphones, tablets, or wearables. With many options available, connectivity is easy, while collaboration on the go requires more than just an internet connection.

That’s why we are thrilled to announce that the Webex app is now available to download in the all-new Ford and Lincoln Digital Experience. With this embedded in-vehicle experience, we are helping transform the car into an extension of the office, making collaboration effortless and reinforcing that work is not where you go but what you do.

Turn your car into a mobile office with Webex

Webex is the first to introduce immersive meetings and audio calling in the Ford and Lincoln Digital Experience.

With the Webex integration on select Ford and Lincoln vehicles, users still get the same immersive Webex experience without needing a smartphone or mobile device. Instead, you can join directly from the in-car touchscreen display, providing the flexibility to work from anywhere securely, and with the benefit of Webex’s AI background noise removal feature, you can hear and be heard with clarity.

Join meetings directly from the in-car touchscreen display

With Webex, security isn’t just first—it’s always. The Webex app for the Ford and Lincoln Digital Experience secures participation in Webex meetings and calls.

The Webex app was thoughtfully designed around the driving experience, whether someone is on the move or parked.

While driving, audio-only mode is available to help ensure an uninterrupted connection, just like a regular Webex call.

When in parked mode, fully immersive Webex meetings are available, including:

  • Viewing shared content from remote attendees
  • Viewing videos of remote meeting participants on the center display
  • Elevating the interaction with real-time reactions on the touchscreen to foster engagement and collaboration
  • Tailoring your meetings with customizable layouts, whether viewing participants, up to 6 people in Grid view, or a more focused perspective with Focus view
  • Staying in the loop with a glance at the participant list to ensure everyone’s voice is heard

Webex by Cisco provides cutting-edge hybrid work solutions for any work style. With its user-friendly and extensible platform, Webex ensures that hybrid workers can enjoy seamless and flexible experiences, regardless of location.

The Webex app is now available for customers on the all-new 2024 Lincoln Nautilus and is coming soon on the new 2025 Lincoln Aviator and 2025 Ford Explorer.

Owners of Ford and Lincoln-equipped vehicles simply need to download the Webex app directly in the vehicle. Then, effortlessly log in by scanning a QR code to dive straight into their Webex meetings and 1:1 calling without missing a beat! Learn more about Webex for Auto.
