The original Ford factory announced that it will increase the Mustang Mach-E towing capacity to 1,000 kg, and further updates include: battery 80 to 90% capacity (SOC) charging time reduced to 15 minutes. Prior to this, foreign media have tested the Mustang Mach-E charging curve many times, and found that after 80% of the capacity, due to its own software limitations, it can only be charged at a speed of 12 kW, as a mustang Mach-E with a sense of sports performance, it must be a major pain point, and the original factory has improved its charging efficiency.
In addition, esc and single-pedal driving functions have been fine-tuned. Mustang Mach-E has excellent overseas sales performance, the United States has suspended orders due to short supply, and Mustang Mach-E has been on sale in Europe for more than a year, it is understood that up to more than 30% of consumers choose the GT model with the strongest performance.
The charging curve has been greatly improved, from 80 to 90% to 15 minutes
This time, Ford has greatly improved the charging rate in the software update section. Mustang Mach-E standard model equipped with 75.7kWh battery, RWD model equipped with 98.8kWh extended range battery, the original official pointed out that the use of 150kWh DC charging pile, can be charged to 80% SOC in 45 minutes, after the foreign media test is indeed consistent, but to fully charge the battery 100%, it takes about 2 hours and 32 minutes.
In general, the charging curve is first fast and then slow, but foreign media tests Mustang Mach-E charged from 0% to 100% found that the time for Mustang Mach-E to accept a maximum charging rate of 150 kW was only the first 2 minutes, which was equivalent to the 0-5% SOC of the battery, and then began to decline, and in 70 to 80% of this section there is still a charging rate of 74kW, but after 80% of the rapid decline to only 12 kW. Now Ford has improved this section in this update, reducing the battery's charging time from 80 to 90% from 52 minutes to 15 minutes, which is a big leap forward.
The towing capacity has been raised to 1,000 kg, and the delivered vehicles have also been increased
The Mustang Mach-E towing capacity was raised from the previous 750 kg to 1,000 kg for the extended range versions of the RWD rear-wheel drive and AWD all-wheel drive, which the original said was enough to allow the driver to tow a small fishing boat, a Ford German spokesman confirmed that the same applies to delivered vehicles, saying that "no new hard equipment is required to improve the towing capacity".
On the other hand, this update recalibrates the single-pedal mode to make driving smoother at low speeds, and also adjusts the ESC function to significantly improve the balance and comfort of the vehicle.
The Mustang Mach-E, which is widely loved by consumers in Europe and the United States, announced in April that it would no longer accept new orders, and the RWD version with extended range battery is the most popular among consumers because it has a range of up to 600 kilometers (in WLTP standards), while the Mustang Mach-E GT version has a maximum horsepower of 465 hp and up to 830 Nm. The torque of meters has attracted the attention of European and American consumers.
