Mach E GT unbridled extended

[Deleted member 19354]

Welp last night I was running errands. Freeway was light so switched to Unbridled Extended. After about 2min on the freeway I pulled to the side and went back to unbridled. Where are my clean underwear?

I have yet to try unbridled "extended" on my car. The documentation is extremely vague on what it does/changes (and I haven't found any info on it elsewhere.)

Unbridled Extend is actually slower than Unbridled. It limits max power, reduces regenerative braking to nil, and cuts traction control. It’s still lots of fun. ??

The lack of traction control was the thing for me. Never again.

It’s not for the faint of heart that’s for sure

I just hit the switch to turn it off once in a while for fun. Makes the tail wag. ??

Are you pressing it once just to turn off traction control or are you holding down to turn off traction control AND stability control?

The latter option is way more fun (and I believe what the extended mode is turning off or at least significantly reducing).

Holding it down, of course! The came would be zero fun if I can’t make it do things my Firebird can do with more torque going through the rear tires alone. ??

I have tried to turn it on but it is always grayed out. What are the required conditions to turn it on?

It reads the “environmental conditions”. I know once it would not work when it was misting outside

HV battery State of Charge has to be sufficient. HVB temperature has to be in a proper range. ?‍?

Like today, it’s 70° , sunny and dry.
Yet …

I have see this before but required SOC and Temp are always undefined. What are the numbers?

It always unknown when i can turn my on. Honestly if your not tracking it whats the point. When i turn it on i instantly get about 10 jailbars meaning it limits my power and yes i know its for track use so you have more consistent power but trust me you dont need unbridled extended. Normal unbridled doesnt give me any jail bars.
