2021 Mach-E won't get 2022 usable Battery Increase

[ElectrifyCLT]

I mostly just use it for take-out.

Takeout and groceries. Less room for them to slide and toss about in there as opposed to the rear trunk.

Especially with those sweet free dividers.

You know what I don't care if Ford "unlocks" a few miles extra range on my 2021, but it would be nice if they would allow faster charging above 80%, if they would allow customer priority for charging to be set in Ford Pass (time only VS target state) and if they would allow an optional PIN to enable PAAK instead of it being "on" via proximity 100% of the time. Just a few items on my wish list off the top of my head.

I'm just waiting for the public outcry on here when the 2022s start getting delivered with frunk buttons on their (2) fobs.

I would be one of the people crying if they add the frunk button to the FordPass app and screen of ‘22 or ‘23 MY and not for people with the ‘21 MY….

Well, since that's already been added for the Job 2 models in 2021, I don't think that will be an issue.

Essentially waiting on a BCM update in late December/January right?

So I guess Tesla is just getting these features, guess MME not so bad after all

Recall 21P22 ups charging between 80% and 90 to about 50kW per hr. verified it worked 2 weeks ago. You should get a notice on Ford Pass to get it done.

Also being able to reorder waypoints is an MME feature as well.

Hah. I don't believe it. I swear someone at Ford says something different every 5 minutes. They need to get their act together. I'm getting sick of it.

Well look at it this way. The new Kia EV 6 GT Line AWD coming out with it's 77,4 kWh battery has 100 km more range already then the MME Premium SR AWD, only the LR 99kWh battery can do that in the MME but here in Canada it's a $7,000 dollars (CAN) more to get it. So contrary to what I thought at first I'll probably won't keep the MME for 10 years, I'm seriously considering ordering a Kia EV 6 GT Line AWD if the price comes close to what I paid for the MME Premium SR AWD, considering the similar equipment but the additional range. Ford had told us early adopters that it could update anything via OTA but so far we still have to go to the dealer and I mean an OTA that gives me Tic Tac Toe well....... and does minor corrections to the softwares, it's not what I was expecting at all. Increase in useable battery that would be a valuable update. My car is actually at the dealership for windshield and pano roof recall plus the DCFC recall also but at the same time I have to pay for a new windshield has mine was unfortunately cracked has many of us has experimented, badluck most likely after more then 40 years driving receiving rocks in windshield and never had one cracked I suppose.

Ok stop crying (including me).

I just got the confirmation that 2021 will get the update from... Darren Palmer himself! Q1 2022

He should be head of communications for Ford

What you're asking for about charging is supposedly included in the 21P22 update. Should jump from ~10kW above 80% to 40-50kW above 80%

The EV6 is a car for starters. Also ugly as sin IMO. Also I'm guessing the range is best case not realistic that they market since Ford markets a realistic summer range.
