Make sure you precondition en route to a charger (at least 20 min, especially if it’s cold). I have a 2021 Select and when I precondition, I would say 9 out of 10 times I instantly peak at 115 kW when below 30ish percent and then its pretty stable at 80-90 kW on EA chargers.
I’ll second these. The cables are lowest profile and these ones install/take down in about 1-2 min per wheel, crazy fast and no need to adjust tension. If you use them a lot, I suggest buying backup tensioning bands, but for AWD “just in case,” you’re probably fine.
Anyone else out there not getting it after a fair amount of time? I got 6.7 a week ago and so far nothing, even after reinstalling the app.
21 job 2 and I have been able to do the door code frunk pop since I got the car in 2021.
Thought I'd add some of my experience as another data point for you. I live in the Greater Sac region and drive to my cabin in Bear Valley (hwy 4) regularly which is located at 7500 ft. Just focusing on the vertical climb, starting at the base of the main mountain around 1500 ft, here is what I...
This has happened to me a handful of times over the past couple years. Hitting the power button for the audio system at the center of the screen dial always fixed it instantly. Didn’t need a full sync reset. Worth a try.
Yikes, Was hoping other dealerships might be better. Keep trying to get my mobile charger replaced under warranty but every time I have an appointment, I call to check the actual service time and it’s always 1+ weeks out before they’ll even look at the car at Roseville Future Ford. What’s crazy...
That’s a crazy bill for SMUD. I’m in 2500 sf, running pool equipment and AC at 72, work from home and I still only peak at $250/month in July/August. Bottoms out at $90/mo in winter.
To supplement this info, non-summer (Oct through May) rates for SMUD in California:
$0.11/kWh off peak and...
“The 2021 Mach-E was originally released with a standard 68 kWh battery (75.7 kWh gross) and an optional 88 kWh extended pack (98.7 kWh gross). For the 2022 model year, the usable capacity of these batteries were bumped up to 70 and 91 kWh while the gross size remained the same.”
Ford doesn’t...
I haven’t seen it posted yet, but is it possible OPs vehicle is the issue? Regen inadvertently kicking in and dragging on efficiency? Is that even possible?
Even loaded up, that 2 mi/kWh seems low. I get loaded up and drive ~100 miles starting near sea level and ending at 8,000 ft elevation and...
This is a what my Grizzl-E setup typically performs at, around 7% loss (~9.4 at EVSE, ~8.8 at battery) and FordPass truncates the rate as a round “8 kw.”
And for anyone that isn’t too familiar with this, to concisely clarify, inline/device metering happens before losses at the EVSE whereas FordPass and energy delivered is after losses.
Fun fact: Some drag induction can be a good thing where the introduction of turbulent flow reduces drag on other parts of the vehicle. This is often done with what is known as a vortex generator where it’s added drag is more than offset with drag reduction by flow turbulence. The handle very...
