(Posted on Jun 29, 2020 at 02:33AM )

Fordâ€™s all-new F150 is built expressly to be the toughest, most powerful truck in the venerable series ever. And when you look at the stats, it becomes clear that the Big Blue Oval over-delivered on making that goal a reality.

The all-new F-150 comes with a fresh 3.5-liter PowerBoost full hybrid V6 powertrain that is set to deliver the most HP and torque yet seen in a light-duty full-size pickup. Available on every trim from the XL to the Limited, the full hybrid system adds instant electric torque to the six-cylinder EcoBoost engine, resulting in an EPA-estimated range of approximately 700 miles. Drivers will also get to tap into 12,000 pounds of available maximum towing.
Â

The new F-150â€™s 10-speed SelectShiftÂ® automatic transmission is mated to a 35-kilowatt (47-horsepower) electric motor that, in tandem with special software, includes drive modes such as tow-haul. The system also offers regenerative braking energy to charge the 1.5-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery. This battery is stowed underneath the truck, keeping the F-150 as spacious for passengers/cargo as previous iterations.

This week, Ford Motor Company announced their intention to move toward complete carbon neutrality on a global level by 2050. The announcement comes as part of their 21st-annual Sustainability Report.

Ford now stands as the only United States-based full-line automaker committed to working with California for enhanced vehicle greenhouse gas standards and dedicated to cutting CO2 emissions in concert with the Paris Climate Agreement.Â
Â

Carbon neutrality means the achievement of zero carbon emissions via balancing emissions with carbon removal. The Big Blue Oval Brand plans on hitting that goalthrough focusing on three primary areas that account for 95-percent of emissionsâ€”company facilities, vehicle use, and the supply base.Â

Thus far, Ford has already routed more than $11.5 billion toward electric vehicle investment from now through 2022, as evidenced by the upcoming Mustang Mach-E, fully electric F-150, and Transit Commercial vehicles. The company is also now on track to powerÂ their entire array of plants with 100-percent locally-sourced renewable energy by 2035.

If youâ€™ve enjoyed our previous post here, you already know the incredible Mustang Mach 1 is barreling toward Penticton in the spring of 2021 after 17 yearsÂ and comes packed with a V8 that pushes out 480 HP. But thereâ€™s so much more to love about this machine.

Letâ€™s talk about handling. The Mustang Mach 1 is endowed with a handling package that comes with the Tremecâ„¢ 3160 6-speed manual transmission for incredibly enjoyable on-road experiences (this fastback coupe also offers the option of a 10-speed automatic). The stick shift setup, however, also comes with new front wheel lip moldings, rear tire spats from the Shelby GT500, a low-gloss magnetic swing spoiler, and a higher downforce front splitter. Fantastic, right?

Of course, it wonâ€™t just feel good to drive the Mach 1â€”youâ€™ll be looking good, too. The pony car comes with a refreshed front fascia and grilles that also deliver enhanced aerodynamics and cooling. Plus, the side-body stripes and hood sport reflective surfaces, and black accents are abundant.

Driver assistance? Why, Ford has you coveredâ€”and then some.

The Big Blue Oval brandâ€™s Co-Pilot360â„¢ technology was already a game-changer on the roads of Penticton and the rest of BC, but good just got better. The wide-sweeping collection of driver-assist features just became even broader, with advancements that will improve your quality of life on highways and byways.

Available Active Drive Assist now comes with an advanced driver-facing camera, enabling the tracking of head position and driver eye gaze while wearing sunglasses. The feature evolves Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control with Lane Centering, providing a new hands-free mode that can be updated in the future. This mode enables drivers to remove their hands from the wheel altogether on certain pre-mapped highways, provided they continue to gaze at the road ahead.
Â

Also of note is the addition of the Ford Co-Pilot360â„¢ Active 2.0 Prep Package, which will first become available on the Mustang Mach-E. This includes radar and camera hardware that enables the flexibility to purchase Active Drive Assist as an over-the-air software update at a later date, should the owner choose.

The upcoming 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E is an electric SUV thatâ€™s set to take the guesswork out of range calculations, conquering driver anxiety and elevating this class of vehicles to all-new heights.Â

Understanding and planning for driving range will never be easier than with the Mustang Mach-E, which can be reserved ahead of its early 2021 release date. The machineâ€™s Intelligent Range feature brings a host of benefits, including the ability to more accurately predict available range by using current weather forecasts, past driving behavior, and crowdsourced data from other Mach-E machines. Further, a future over-the-air update will allow for even better predictions, including factoring in terrain, route elevation, real-time traffic, and more.
Â

Itâ€™s important to note that if the driver ever does run out of electric charge in the Mach-E, Fordâ€™s Roadside Assistance program will tow the vehicle to the nearest public charger, their home, or the closest dealership within 35 miles.

Give us a ring at Skaha Ford to discuss the exciting upcoming Mach-E!
