The summer has arrived, temperatures have risen for good, and children at home have stopped school for days. Which means that the time for the long -awaited summer holidays are now approaching!
Certainly, their preparation and organization is in itself a challenge. As is the case with high temperatures. However, there is no reason to worry as your electric Ford, coupled with the advanced FordPass application, has all the necessary functions that will help you meet the heat requirements by always keeping you cool – both on the heat and the summer months.
Hot out, cool in
Ford electric vehicles have the pre-conditioning function, with which drivers can regulate the desired temperature inside their car in the face of the travel as the vehicle charges.
Thanks to this feature, Ford’s EV passengers have the ability to board the cabin while enjoying the ideal temperature, while maintaining the required battery charge levels to complete their journey – and just when they want. And because with this function your electric Ford uses the power provided by the socket (or the charger), instead of the vehicle’s battery, the road consumption will be smaller.
In the case now that Ford’s purely electric models, such as the Puma Gen-e, Capri, Explorer and Mustang Mach-e, are not connected for charging, drivers can activate the air conditioning system remotely through the Ford Pass application, which is ideal when you return to your vehicle after you have it.
Charge smarter
Ford electric vehicles can charge their battery even when the outdoor temperature reaches 50theC. However, the higher the temperature, the longer the time will last. The ability to plan the charging provided by Ford’s EV allows the driver to regulate the start of the charge later in the day or even at night when temperatures are lower, and therefore the charging more efficient.
Also, drivers of Ford electric models that maintain their vehicle connected to a charger (or home socket) in cases where the outside temperature is high, help the car system constantly maintain the battery temperature at the optimum level.
More heat security for all Ford’s passenger models
A moment of carelessness is enough for the fatal one to happen. Such as forgetting a toddler or pet in the back seat of a locked vehicle under the sun. However, all Ford’s passenger vehicles, as well as the hard -working Ranger, offer the Rear Occupant Alert feature, which is designed to help prevent such a situation. Thus, if the rear door opens at the beginning of a journey, the system provides a visual and audio warning when the vehicle is stopped and the ignition is off – to remind the driver to carefully check the rear seats.
Helpful tips from Ford
Whatever the Ford model you are driving, there are some simple tips that can help all drivers – and passengers – deal with high temperatures.
For example, parking of the vehicle in a shady place can greatly reduce the cabin temperature. However, if you need to park your car under the hot sun, placing a folding sun protection system on the front windscreen can help keep the interior cooler – especially if it has a reflective lining.
If you are returning to a burning vehicle, it is advisable to activate the air conditioning in the coldest setting. Cooling efficiency will be reinforced if you download all the windows as you start moving. The breeze that enters the interior will “drive” the warm air that was trapped in the interior until then – so the air conditioning works faster.
Max function is the most effective air conditioning adjustment for rapid cooling, if the latter is automatic. If it is manual, then the driver is good to choose the air recycling function – this means that the coldest air from the system is recycled in the cabin. Without this setting, the air conditioning system will try to cool the hot air from the outside, so it will take more time to reach the required temperature.
So with these tips and prompts, but also with the advanced technologies available in Ford’s electric vehicles, you can now keep your car interior cool to focus more comfortably on driving – and sweat less.
