SMART POWER-SPLIT
ARCHITECTURE
City Driving: In stop and go driving and at low speeds,
the electric motor provides the necessary power. The gas
engine kicks in only to recharge the battery or when you
need more power.
Accelerating: Step on the accelerator pedal and get all the
responsiveness of a traditional gasoline engine.
Cruising or Highway Driving: With greater power demands
at highway speeds, your vehicle uses the gasoline engine
more frequently than while driving at city traffic speeds.
This is normal.
Braking: For added efficiency, the energy normally created
during braking recycles to the battery.
Stopped: To save energy, the gasoline engine shuts off
and the electric motor stops drawing current.
MYFORD®
MOBILE APP FOR
SMARTPHONES
The downloadable MyFord
Mobile app lets you know the
status of your charge and upcoming charge
schedules at any time, from anywhere.
Use the App to
» See your charge status.
» Set charging schedules when utility
rates are low with the Value Charging feature.
» Set your cabin temperature when setting a GO Time
either remotely or through your touchscreen to
precondition your cabin when the vehicle remains

outlet with 120V charging may reduce cabin conditioning
effectiveness. For maximum efficiency, use a 240V outlet.
