Interesting that the CA Route 1 still doesn't have it's EPA range and efficiency certified. A December 15 surprise perhaps?
I don't see why it would have it's own separate numbers. Seems like it's it's just a RWD ER. I know the wheels are a little different, but the wheels are also different between Selects (18") vs Premiums (19") too, yet they don't differentiate the EPA numbers between those (even though it probably makes a modest difference in range).
Smaller wheels, aero covers and potentially "special" tuning to maximize range at the cost of performance. Ford may have some tricks up its sleeves to make this a significantly longer range model. Otherwise, why wouldn't the EPA ratings be available?
They are, just not exclusively by it's own trim name. Just like First Edition doesn't have separate EPA.
You'll notice the word "family" in the documentation. A family is a distinct group of vehicles, i.e. Mach-e AWD extended range. EPA defines the part/feature differences which would allow you to group vehicles into their own family. Infinite Blue cars can't be their own family (I know, hard to believe, right?). Rt 1 may not fit the description of a unique family.The RT 1 is covered by the same emissions cert - which may be worse case
Yep, it would seem the family here is defined by all RWD ER.
That's what I had thought too but we have two Forum members with CA Rt 1 builds this week who have Monroney stickers marked "not for sale" and EPA numbers not available.
Right - One EPA emissions cert often covers a particular powertrain, but then different models have separate EPA test car list data and separate fueleconomy.gov / label energy consumption.
So does that mean the number is determined (300 mile range) but someone just hasn't linked it to that model in the database yet?
Do you think new numbers will becoming out across the board?Rt. 1 may have it's own range family. Check the labels next week.
Has different power yes and different regen.
