CZĘSTO ZADAWANE PYTANIA DOTYCZĄCE SAMOCHODÓW ELEKTRYCZNYCH

Our Ford Electric vehicles are built to the same high quality standards as our conventional vehicles. That’s why we give an 8-year/100,000 miles [UK/IE] / 8-year/160,000 km [EU] warranty on our batteries.

Electric car ranges vary a lot, from city cars with smaller batteries to SUV’s with much larger batteries. The Mustang Mach-E has a targeted range of 280 miles/450km with the standard battery, or up 370 miles/600km with the extended range battery.^{CX727 Targeted Range}

Think about your longest regular journey and how far you actually drive on a daily basis. Then also consider that if you’re able to charge at home you can ‘fill up’ every night just by plugging in. It soon becomes clear that with these ranges, most trips can be made by charging at home. And when you do have a long distance trip, public charging, and IONITY high power charging through FordPass, can easily be planned as part of your trip.

Batteries have an optimal operating temperature, and they heat and cool themselves to achieve it. They have to power everything that you switch on, so everything you do to reduce the power needed will improve your range. There are many ways you can help to maximise the range of your electric car during cold weather:

• Pre-heat your car while it’s charging, before you leave.
• Remove any snow so it’s not heavier than necessary.
• Use the heated seats and steering wheel rather than heat up the entire cabin.
• Drive economically – a steady speed that isn’t high, with gentle acceleration and braking etc.
• Maximise the power recovered through regenerative braking by braking gradually when possible.
• Connect your electric car to an external power source whenever it’s parked, to keep the system warm from an external source and to re-charge.

Just like in petrol- or diesel-fuelled cars, the range of electric vehicles can be affected by a few factors. Here are some main things to consider:

• High speeds and heavy acceleration use more power and reduce range, so you’ll get more miles out of your potential range by travelling at a steady speed and accelerating gradually.
• Extreme hot or cold weather conditions affect batteries and can reduce range. Heating or cooling the inside of your vehicle will also draw extra energy from your battery. We’d recommend adjusting the inside temperature of your vehicle while you’re still plugged into the charger.
• Regenerative braking can capture and reuse more than 90% of the energy normally lost during the braking process, recharging the high-voltage battery and maximising your range. Try to predict traffic situations ahead to optimize your braking for maximum energy recuperation.

When you buy a Ford electric vehicle you will get these cables as standard: 

• A Ford Public Charge Cable (Mode 3) to use with public AC chargers, 
• A Ford Varipower Home Charging Cable to charge at domestic and industrial socket outlets in your country, with the necessary ‘pigtail’ connectors to plug in to the different sockets.

You may also need additional 'pigtail' adaptors to charge in other countries.

We’ll be announcing more details on the available accessories next year, including the following:

• Ford Connected Wallbox
• Detachable Tow Bar and Tow Bar Mounted Bike & Ski Carriers
• Complete Winter Wheels 
• Charging Accessories

Electric vehicles are not only a necessary next step towards making the future of driving CO₂ neutral, they also have their own new, exciting characteristics.

Our plan for electrification is simple. We’re taking the things people already love about Ford: capability, performance and technology, and transforming them through the unique qualities of electric vehicles.

No, fully electric vehicles produce zero tailpipe emissions while driving. And if you charge your electric vehicle using renewable/green energy, you can reduce your CO₂ impact even further.

Yes, available incentives do apply to Ford's electric vehicles. Click here to see further details about available government incentives.

Some electrified cars are exempt from road tax, while others benefit from a discount compared to petrol or diesel vehicles. Right now in the UK, fully-electric cars aren’t subject to any road tax, although a charge does apply to cars costing over £40,000.

Compared to an equivalent petrol SUV, Mustang Mach-E could save you £830 road tax in the first year and £145 each subsequent year. Find out more at: https://www.gov.uk/vehicle-tax-rate-tables

Over 5 years (or 60,000 miles), an electric vehicle could help you save up to 50% on scheduled servicing, compared to a combustion engine vehicle.^{ICE vs BEV Maintenance Savings}

This is because electric vehicles have fewer moving parts, so maintenance costs should be lower. Plus, the Mustang Mach-E comes with an 8-year battery warranty too.
