Ford has cut the charging time and increased the towing capacity of most Mustang Mach-E cars in Europe with OTA updates.
was 750 kg . Good, but not great. Now Ford says it has increased the tow rating for all Mach-Es equipped with the extended range battery — whether rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive — to 1000 kg . That’s enough to tow a modest sized fishing boat, the company says, and backs that up by showing a picture of a Mustang Mach-E towing just such a boat. In comparison, the Tesla Mode Y has a towing capacity of 3500 lb.
“The towing upgrade for Mustang Mach-E is one of a number of free updates we’re continuing to make in hardware and software or through homologation to give owners the best experience possible,” says This Woelpern, general manager of imports for Ford of Europe. “With towing in particular, it was a great example of us responding to customer queries, where we checked the feasibility of an increase and were able to deliver what they wanted.
But when traveling longer distances, charging quickly is of paramount importance. Yes, it’s less stressful to stop every 3 to 4 hours for a bathroom break and to stretch our legs, but we still want to get back on the road and continue our journey fairly quickly. Towing a ski boat is nice, but faster charging is what will really make electric cars appealing to more drivers.
There is no word officially whether these updates apply to cars for the North American market, but it seems logical to assume the same updates applicable to export models will apply to domestic models as well. When we know more, you will know more.
