  1. Out of Spec Kyle explains how voltage and amperage work together to slow down charging cars with higher voltage batteries / architecture

    Former hardware engineer here: I've created battery chargers for li-ion batteries at the very small scale as well as NH batteries. At least for the small batteries, charging is usually a constant current source and stopped when the voltage gets to a certain point (or when the calculated current...
  2. Kia EV6GT is Mustang Mach-E GT competition

    You should probably put a shot from the back for the Kia EV6 GT, cause that's all Mach-e GTPE owners are going to see :D
  3. Competition Review Once Again Slams MME GT 5 Second Limit

    I see, well, a lot of folks in the EV6 GT forum are as baffled as you are with regards to tire choice. Kia really went all out on upgrading the GT to a true performance car... and then put on Eagle F1 Asyms 3. I honestly don't know if that is good or bad :D
  4. Competition Review Once Again Slams MME GT 5 Second Limit

    Motor Trend mentioned this here: https://www.motortrend.com/reviews/2023-kia-ev6-gt-first-test-review/ Essentially the MME and Tesla have different tires than the Kia EV6 GT in the states. The EV6 GT's top speed is 160MPH+, vastly higher than the MME GTPE's, and maybe that influenced the...
  5. Competition Review Once Again Slams MME GT 5 Second Limit

    As an owner of an EV6 GT, I highly disagree in the 'temp mgt.' thing; I haven't bothered with it at all - actually haven't even found it or been prompted for it... I just push 'GT' mode and an immense amount of power is available RIGHT NOW. Go test drive one, try for yourself and be prepared!
  6. Competition Review Once Again Slams MME GT 5 Second Limit

    I think the problem is that when you slap the name "Mustang" on a car, it denotes high performance. Then, if you add GT, and on top of that, "Performance", you are signaling extreme performance to people who trust the Mustang brand. If they had just called it the "Ford Mach-E", then all would...
  7. Out of Spec review of the 2023 Mach-E GT - driving characteristics

    I was super excited about the mach-e gt when first announced, I placed an order for one, it came in last December. I was about to drive to pick it up when I started seeing the YT videos on how 'slow' it was, and one video said it 'was the slowest performance EV ever tested'... ouch. I wish I...
  8. SPACE WHITE Mach-E Club

    My 2022 mach-e GT PE was changed to Space White Metallic from iconic silver. I am super excited about this as Space White looks so much better and more modern to me. CANT WAIT
  9. Brought home my Mach-E GT Yesterday and traded in a First Edition

    How is the performance of the GT when on the highway? I.e. already cruising at 65-75, then you hit it? Can you feel a difference then?
  10. Why everybody is so crazy about GTPE?

    GTPE is my first choice. The suspension upgrade alone is worth it. And we are still polluting; maybe not nearly as much 'local' emission, but there is still a massive amount of 'pollution' in the form of toxic chemicals, waste material, waste heat that go into the production of ANY vehicle...
  11. Thread for people who haven't gotten their Mach-E's yet to be grumpy in

    Well, at least your car has 'shipped'. :) Even though Ford communication has been terrible, they have finally sent an email giving a product date and VIN! And now all of the sudden, I'm getting lots of communication. Not sure what's going on, but I'll take over communication with nothing...
  12. First week with GTPE, it was not over-hyped

    Congrats. Can't wait to get mine, just got my VIN. :)
  13. Thread for people who haven't gotten their Mach-E's yet to be grumpy in

    There should be a thread for grumpy people who ordered the top of the line at max price with zero communication from the company. And then another grumpy thread for those apologists who keep apologizing for Ford and making excused.
  14. Multiple Mach-E GTs have reached Kansas City!

    Isn't this thread about mach-e-gts having been ordered and reaching kansas city? Seems pretty relevant to me as I ordered a mach-e gtpe. Not sure where you are getting 'whining' about *my* order status, I'm concerned that large company like Ford can't get an order status system working like...
  15. Multiple Mach-E GTs have reached Kansas City!

    Yup, I realize that which is why I said above I'm neither concerned nor worried. I am just baffled that a company with such premium products at high prices would not be able to communicate *anything* or offer up any semi-approximate order status to those that ordered such products... regardless...
  16. Multiple Mach-E GTs have reached Kansas City!

    Never said they need to call every two weeks; an automated email would be fine. They should know how many vehicles, approx., that are in front being built or not. I mean, it's basic order status that every large company does, supply chain problems or not.
  17. Multiple Mach-E GTs have reached Kansas City!

    Actually, I'm not expecting a date, per se, but rather _communication_ from a company you placed an order with. They need to send UPDATES to customers, with something like this: "Thank you for ordering our top-of-the-line Mach E. We're busy getting your order ready; there are 433 orders in...
  18. Multiple Mach-E GTs have reached Kansas City!

    Early May this year. Order number 108* GTPE Not concerned or worried, just unbelievable a company would almost ignore customers ordering these premium vehicles. Maybe it's me, guess I have different standards, not sure.
  19. Multiple Mach-E GTs have reached Kansas City!

    $70k car ordered 4 months ago. No word from dealer or ford.com. Just "order in progress". Ford needs a bit more communication here for premium cars...
