The Ford premium Bluetooth enabled die-cast car range is due to launch in early 2011 at retail with models for the Ford Focus RS500, Ford Fiesta and Ford Mustang GT at 1:43 scale. The cars are able to be controlled remotely by iPhone and Android phones with Bluetooth technology and will be available across Asia, Europe and North America. Application software will be downloadable from the AutoOcar portal, Android's Market and the Apple iTunes Store for the iPhone and iPod Touch.
