<\/a><\/p>\nIntelligent Range will calculate range based on past driver behavior and forecasted weather conditions \u2013 taking advantage of the cloud to predict how much energy will be used in future driving. The vehicle battery system reports how much energy is available, while the powertrain module tracks how much energy is being used. Warmer or colder weather can impact range, so Intelligent Range takes that into consideration, too, updating estimated range along the way.<\/p>\n

- Mustang Mach-E helps reduce unplanned stops for charging with innovative new Intelligent Range, which more accurately predicts how much range drivers have using past driving behavior, weather forecasts and crowdsourced data from other Mustang Mach-E vehicles<\/li>\n
- Future over-the-air update will enable even more accurate connected vehicle predictions \u2013 including the ability to factor in real-time traffic conditions, terrain and elevation of a given route and more \u2013 letting drivers know if they need to anticipate a charging stop<\/li>\n
- In case a customer runs out of charge, the Ford Roadside Assistance program will tow their all-electric vehicle to their home, the nearest public charger or an electric vehicle-certified Ford dealership within 35 miles<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
Crowdsourced data from other connected Ford electric vehicles who choose to share information on the road can improve estimates considerably. The all-electric SUV can track how much energy is used in different circumstances, including varying speed, terrain and climate conditions, so it can use fleet averages across all Mustang Mach-Es to improve range estimates \u2013 even for routes and conditions an individual customer has never driven before.<\/p>\n
If range is impacted notably by any number of factors at the start of a trip, customers will receive a notification in their cluster highlighting the new range estimate and details about why the estimate changed.<\/p>\n
In case a Mustang Mach-E does run out of charge, the Ford Roadside Assistance program will tow customers free of charge to where they want within 35 miles \u2013 whether that be their home, the nearest public charger or an EV-certified Ford dealership.<\/p>\n

Ford will upgrade Intelligent Range through over-the-air updates, designed to deliver even more accurate prediction capabilities for connected Mustang Mach-E, keeping their fully electric SUVs at the forefront of technology. A future update will allow Mustang Mach-E to take even more advantage of cloud-connected capabilities, enabling it to factor in real-time traffic conditions, road slope, the terrain and elevation of a given route, and even the temperature at their final destination.<\/p>\n
\u201cChanges in driver behavior and the environment can impact range, which is the reason other electric vehicles often experience significant range adjustments,\u201d said Mark Poll, Ford\u2019s EV charging user experience manager. \u201cFord is tapping the power of the cloud to make estimates even more accurate \u2013 reducing the need for surprise charging stops and helping reduce customers\u2019 range anxiety.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
For electric vehicle owners, Ford understands that taking the guesswork out of when and where to re-charge helps build trust and provide peace of mind. That\u2019s why the all-new Mustang Mach-E comes equipped with a feature to help more accurately predict how much range drivers have left, becoming more precise over time.
