Ford Focus' Double-Digit Growth Improves Lead as Best-Selling Vehicle Nameplate
WESTLAND, Mich - Ford Focus' Double-Digit Growth Improves Lead as Best-Selling Vehicle Nameplate in the world, according to the latest Polk global vehicle data for January to September 2013. The Ford Focus has had more than a 16 percent year-over-year registration growth, increasing its lead over its next competitor by 75,000.

With this large growth in China, the Ford Focus remains the best-selling vehicle nameplate in the world. Global registrations for the Focus grew to 856,587 from January to September of 2013. China was the biggest contributor to the success with 303,481 registrations. This brought an 85 percent year-over-year- increase, according to Polk.

The Focus' sleek style exterior and level of equipment are two key reasons for customer's purchases. In China, the vehicle's design, safety, and quality are the top components that separate cars from one another. Ford scored 15 to 40 percent higher on each of these components than the closet competitor.

Ford Focus' Double-Digit Growth Improves Lead as Best-Selling Vehicle Nameplate now gives Ford Motor Company two of the top five best-selling vehicle nameplates in the world.

All-New Ford Mustang Heads to Hollywood

All-New Ford Mustang Heads to Hollywood

WESTLAND, Mich - Lights, camera, action! Before hitting the real streets next fall, The All-New Ford Mustang Heads to Hollywood. The eagerly awaited "Need for Speed" film, based off of the Electronic Arts video game series, is featuring the Mustang and is set to debut this spring.

The Ford Mustang has made over 3,200 appearances between movies and television shows in the last 50 years. The all-new Ford Mustang is going to light up the big screen in "Need for Speed" on March 14. Actor Aaron Paul will be driving both the 2014 Mustang throughout the film as well as take the wheel of the next-generation Mustang on its first on-screen appearance.

The director, Scott Waugh, chose the Mustang because of it's representation of American culture. He stated that the Mustang is symbolic for modern muscle and has an iconic reputation in some of the best car chase movies of all time.

Hollywood was one of the chosen locations for the global reveal of the all-new Mustang on December 5, 2013. The pony car was driven out onto wet cement in the forecourt of the TCL Chinese Theatre, just like any star in Hollywood would do. The Mustang had its prints and signature logo documented into cement for the rest of the world to admire.

Fans of the video game series have already had access to the all-new Mustang with a virtual driving free in-game downland that came out in mid-December. Players in the game are able to customize their Mustang by choosing one of five popular designs.

Save Money and Energy with MyEnergi® Lifestyle 2.0

WESTLAND, Mich - Ford Motor Company is teaming up with other huge corporations to show consumer's that it is possible to save money and energy with MyEnergi® Lifestyle 2.0. It has been one year since the MyEnergi Lifestyle introduction, initially showing how homeowners can save money on appliances and fuel through energy-efficient living.

The MyEnergi Lifestyle 2.0 will continue to do this, but meanwhile help increase the amount of energy we store and money we save with a battery storage system. This system will show the benefits of integrating additional tools, such as how to store energy within the home after it is captured by solar panels. The battery storage system allows customers to optimize their energy use as well as have accessible power they can tap to keep their homes running during outages. The energy storage system Ford is demonstrating at the International CES is from Sharp. It will provide a good example of what consumers can use.

MyEnergi Lifestyle is a collaboration of Ford Motor Company, Eaton, Infineon, SunPower and Whirlpool. The Katie Couric show had a Mother's Day special and gave a MyEnergi Lifestyle makeover to a lucky studio audience member that included energy-efficient appliances, solar panels, and a Ford C-MAX Energi plug-in hybrid vehicle.

Susan Berry and her family were the lucky recipients and the last six months have seemed to good to be true. They expect to save more than $300 annually from their new solar panel system, which offsets more than 70 percent of the energy used in their home. They have also seen more than 25 percent reduction in energy costs and carbon dioxide with the installation of their new energy-efficient Whirpool refrigerator.

Overall, the MyEnergi Lifestyle shows how combining renewable energy generation with time-flexible loads enhances energy consumption. To put it simply, you save money and energy. You can see more about MyEnergi Lifestyle by clicking here.

All-New Mustang Will Be First to Launch Ford SYNC® AppLink™

 All-New Mustang Will Be First to Launch Ford SYNC® AppLink™
WESTLAND, Mich - The All-New Mustang Will Be First to Launch the Ford SYNC® AppLink™and will improve the in-vehicle smartphone experience for good. As the all-new Ford Mustang goes on sale later this year, it will be fully equipped with the next-generation Ford SYNC® AppLink™system. The Mustang will be the first model in North America to feature the new system that includes simpler menus, enhanced voice control, and plenty of other new capabilities.

As mentioned before, the Ford SYNC® AppLink™system is looking to enhance the in-vehicle app experience. Even more important, Ford wants to help drivers keep their hands on the wheel and eyes on the road. Some of the new functions that Mustang drivers can expect are:

  • Easier in-vehicle menus and controls which will allow drivers to launch apps on their mobile device more quickly by pressing the SYNC button on the steering wheel and saying the name of the app (and not "Mobile applications" first).
  • Apps can retrieve access to a selection of real-time vehicle data such as acceleration, speed, odometer, and location that can be used to customize the user experience. For instance, access to the in-vehicle GPS signal can make for more precise and accurate location-based services. 
  • A more consistent user experience thanks to voice pass-through capability. This allows developers to use the on-device or cloud-based voice recognition system to evaluate commands given by the driver. Drivers are able to use the same set of voice commands to control the app when connected to the vehicle as they would when they are not connected. 
  • Notifications will be read aloud to drivers as they come in. Alerts are available anytime a mobile device is connected to Ford SYNC® AppLink™, even if the app is not active at that time or if the driver is listening to the radio.
The 2015 is already the most technologically advanced version of its kind and the fact that it will be the first to launch Ford SYNC® AppLink™ is just another notch on the belt. If you are a Mustang lover, check out the selection we have at North Brothers Ford. We have a great variety of New Ford Cars to offer those in Novi and surrounding areas. North Brothers Ford is ready to help you find the perfect Ford vehicle that meets all of your driving needs.

How to Stay Warm and Prevent Frostbite

How to Prevent Frostbite

WESTLAND, Mich. –– Frostbite is caused when our body tissue, usually in the fingers, toes, ears, or nose, freezes due to prolonged exposure. Depending on the temperature, it can take as little as 30 minutes for frostbite to occur if you aren't properly bundled up. We complied a list of tips on how to stay warm and prevent frostbite if you must go outside!


  1. Wear mittens instead of gloves.
  2. Use multiple thin layers of clothing rather than one or two thick layers. More layers means more resistance of warm air escaping from the body.
  3. Bring children in the house every hour to warm up. Children are more prone to frostbite since they lose heat much faster than adults.
  4. Make sure shoes and boots are not too tight.
  5. Wear a hat or ski mask to protect the ears and nose.
  6. Wear waterproof shoes if you will be in the snow or if you expect to get wet.
  7. Avoid drinking alcohol or smoking cigarettes. Both increase the body's vulnerability to the cold.


If you notice signs of skin redness, pain, or numbness try treating by exposing chilled skin to WARM, not HOT, water. If more pain, discoloration, or blistering develops after a couple hours, seek medical attention immediately.

North Brothers Ford asks that you please remember these tips on how to stay warm and prevent frostbite during this brutal winter weather. One of the best places to keep warm if you're out and about and feeling a little too cold is your vehicle. We offer a great selection of used and new vehicles. North Brothers Ford is here to help you find the vehicle that meets all of your driving needs!

North Brothers Ford is located at 33300 Ford Rd Westland, MI, 48185, and we're proudly serving as one of the premier dealerships in Metro Detroit. We're committed to exceptional customer service! Stop by or give us a call at 888-806-7163, our knowledgeable and helpful sales team will be more than happy to assist you!

Ford's F-150 Making Shift to Aluminum

Ford to Unveil the Aluminum F-150
WESTLAND, Mich - Ford Motor Company is spicing up the 37-year winning F-150 by making a shift to aluminum. The new F-150 will be replacing about 1,000 pounds of steel with 600 pounds of aluminum. This switch will get rid of that 750 pound chunk that will improve fuel economy. 

This change will allow the new truck to get about 30 miles per gallon, a huge up from the 17 to 19 mpg that the current models get. With the F-150 being the best selling pickup for 37-years straight and the best-selling U.S. vehicle of any kind for more than three decades, a lot is riding on this drastic change that Ford is making. 

Other automakers are going to have to shift to greater use of aluminum in heavier vehicles if they are going to meet the strict new fuel economy regulations. These standards require that manufacturers to have 54.5 mpg average for all the vehicles they sell by the 2025 model year. 

It is no secret that Ford is heading into 2014 with a positive outlook and showcasing some incredible innovations. What do you think about Ford's F-150 making the shift to aluminum? North Brothers Ford offers a huge variety of the 37-year winning F-150.
