Electric Range
& Batteries
Understanding battery economy is important when owning an all-electric vehicle or hybrid. It starts with the different battery types.
Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP)
Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) batteries are a more cost effective and durable solution with a longer lifespan. They maintain their performance in hot environments better and are more resistant to repeated charging, including being charged to 100%.
Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC)
Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC) batteries are a premium solution known for their higher energy density, which allows them to store more energy in a smaller space. This translates to longer range and stronger performance from a lighter battery. They are also quicker to charge, plus they better maintain their abilities in cold conditions.

Globally Prepared and Tested
Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP) is used to determine the single charge electric range of EVs under standardised test conditions. This procedure establishes a global benchmark to make informed EV range comparisons.

One Pedal Drive Mode
Turning on this drive mode slows down your vehicle when you release pressure on the accelerator pedal. This transfers energy to your battery just like regenerative braking.

Precondition Your Battery
By using the FordPass®* app, you can bring the battery to optimal driving temperature using the vehicle’s heating or cooling system. This can improve battery performance, charging speed, and overall range, especially in cold weather.
