Ford Brings Stingray Karaoke to EV Passengers
The popular Stingray karaoke app for mobile devices is coming to Ford’s EVs and Lincolns. The app will reside natively on the car’s infotainment systems providing on-screen lyrics when the car is parked.
When the car is driving, the app confirms that there is a passenger buckled into the front passenger seat. It shows a QR code on the infotainment display that the passenger scans with their phone and that opens a web page that lets them control the on-screen karaoke app from their phone.
They can add songs to their playlist, change songs, and view scrolling lyrics from their phones while playing music through the car’s stereo system. There is a wide selection of songs and music styles from Rock, Country, Pop, R&B, Latin, K&J Pop, and family-friendly tunes.
Songs are available in 38 languages, including 10 languages in local characters such as Thai, Hebrew, Russian, and Greek, plus a multilingual interface with 36 languages available.
Ford is doing a staggered roll-out of the Stingray app through over-the-air software updates, starting with F-150 Lightning pickups, followed by the Mustang Mach-E, 2025 Ford Explorer, 2025 Lincoln Navigator, 2025 Lincoln Aviator and 2025 Lincoln Nautilus.
