Ford Electric Vehicle Care: Maximizing Battery Life and Efficiency

Image via Tehrani Motors. Do you own an electric vehicle? The maintenance schedule you routinely follow will make a big difference to the longevity and performance of your EV's battery. The Ford EV maintenance guidelines laid out below will help you get the most from your battery and car. more Keep Your Car Protected From the Elements Valentine's summers are often swelteringly hot, which can take its toll on unprotected EV batteries. When excessively heated, your battery can degrade more rapidly, so try to keep it out of direct sunlight and parked in a garage as much as possible. Likewise, sub-zero temperatures threaten the condition and lifespan of an EV battery; it's best not to leave your car parked outside overnight in the depths of winter. Neither Over Nor Undercharge Your Battery EV batteries become damaged by full depletion, which can lessen the battery's capacity, range, and lifespan. With this in mind, never allow your battery's charge to sink all the way to zero. Similarly, fully charging to 100 percent accelerates wear and tear. Try not to charge past the 80 or 90 percent mark; you may be able to set a maximum charging limit to prevent this from happening. Minimize Your Use of Fast-Charging Stations While convenient at times, fast charging is not optimal for EV batteries. Rapid charging causes micro-damage to the battery's interior, harming its long-term efficiency and capacity. It's best to charge your battery more slowly to optimize longevity and avoid fast charging as much as you can. Plan Your Charging Needs in Advance If you always know roughly how far you'll need to drive, you're unlikely to accidentally deplete your battery or be forced to use a fast-charging station. Plan your driving needs in advance, and your battery will thank you with better performance for longer. Accelerate and Brake Gently Aggressive driving habits can also impact an EV battery's lifespan, not to mention the condition of the brakes, tires, and other components. Rather than accelerating and braking abruptly, use both pedals more gently, allowing regenerative braking and gravity to slow your car whenever possible. Consult Your Owner's Manual for Guidelines It pays dividends to read your owner's manual and find out how to care for your EV's battery exactly as the engineers advise. One of our experienced EV technicians can further help you understand how best to maintain your particular model. Schedule Regular Ford EV Maintenance Regular inspections and servicing are a crucial component of proper EV care. When you book regular checkups with us, we can courteously remind you whenever a scheduled servicing visit is approaching. Our award-winning service department can ensure that your battery and entire vehicle perform optimally for many years to come. Visit Tehrani Motor Company in Valentine, NE, today to have your battery inspected by qualified professionals. We offer an extensive selection of new and pre-owned electric vehicles, comprehensive EV maintenance services, and friendly, personalized customer care.

5 Reasons Drivers Love the 2024 Ford Mustang

Image via Tehrani Motors. The iconic sports car is back, and drivers can't wait to get their hands on it. From precision handling and heart-pounding acceleration to its redesigned exterior and innovative tech, the 2024 Ford Mustang flexes its muscles like never before. We explore the reasons drivers love the new Mustang. more 1. Classic Good Looks For 2024, Ford makes some design tweaks while still paying homage to the classic Mustang we all know and love. Its low profile and sculpted lines contribute to the aerodynamics, helping reduce drag and maximize speed and performance. The redesigned front fascia is striking and instantly recognizable with the curved hood drawing the eye down to the hexagonal grille and tri-bar LED headlamps. Dual bright exhausts adorn the rear, perfectly highlighted by the new LED sequential taillamps. 2. Pulse-Racing Performance Drivers love hearing the engine roar and feeling the power surge through the Mustang when they're behind the wheel. The secret to this sports car's performance is its 315 horsepower 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine that produces 350 pound-feet of torque for adrenaline-pumping acceleration. And, that's just the standard drivetrain. Upgrade to the Dark Horse trim and its supercharged 5.0-liter Coyote V8, and you'll get to experience what 500 horsepower and 418 pound-feet of torque truly feels like. 3. Seamless Shifting Ford pairs the EcoBoost engine with a 10-speed SelectShift automatic transmission that delivers smooth, responsive shifting, especially when using the paddle shifters mounted on the flat-bottomed steering wheel. If you prefer to be more in control of the driving experience, opt for the GT trims that come with a six-speed manual transmission, letting you seamlessly run through the gears as you choose. 4. Track Apps The best way to experience everything the new Mustang can do is to take it off the road and onto the track. To help you monitor your performance, Ford has introduced its Track Apps featurem which displays data on either the central 13.2-inch touchscreen or the 12.4-inch instrument cluster. As you speed around the track, the app gives you valuable feedback on lateral and longitudinal g-forces, lap times, acceleration, and more to help you improve your driving skills. 5. Electronic Line-Lock Another welcome addition for helping out on the track is the electronic line-lock. Activating this exciting feature locks up the front brakes and leaves the rear wheels free, giving you a firm grip on the track while you spin the rear tires to bring them up to temperature. Ford has excelled itself with the seventh generation of its iconic sports car.
