Even when Apple supports standards, they often don't do it right 3
iOS 6 is supposed to support MAP, but it doesn't seem to work. I could see the functionality on the C-Max Hybrid's phone screen, but when I tried to send one of the canned text messages with my paired iPhone 5, it didn't go through. According to a Ford representative, Apple did not implement MAP according to the specification. Ford is currently looking at making its cars work with Apple's particular Bluetooth implementation for text messages.
My own experience trying this with an iPhone was also unsuccessful. Other than that, the C-Max is a very cool vehicle.

Ford's Prius-beater hybrid boasts better handling and power. We named it a CNET Editor's Choice:
2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid
With fuel economy in the high 40s and a roomy interior, the 2013 C-Max Hybrid looks equivalent to the Toyota Prius, until you get behind the wheel and tap the extra power.
