Ready For Takeoff: Ford Hybrid Launch Control System
It’s no secret that people love hybrids. They take away a fraction of the cost of gas, providing a daily commute that you can feel good about. Imagine if you combined the fuel-efficiency of a hybrid engine with the 0-60 capabilities of a Ford Mustang? That just might be possible, according to a patent recently filed by Ford Motor Company. Ford outlines a hybrid launch control system featuring a dual-clutch transmission and rear-wheel drive. As your Aberdeen, MD, Ford destination, Preston Ford of Aberdeen is pleased to share everything we know about the patent and the hybrid launch control system.
Here’s the Scoop
Ford Motor Company filed the Hybrid Vehicle Launching Methods and System patent on April 22nd, 2019. It was published on May 24th, 2022. The patent describes a hybrid launch control system that will receive power from both the gas and electric motors. According to the patent claims, the hybrid launch control system will allow the electric motor to propel the vehicle while the gas engine is decoupled, increasing the torque transfer capacity of the clutch while accelerating the engine. In short, the engine, though a hybrid, will allow vehicles to launch at impressive speeds. Ford Authority noted that the patent seems to suggest that Ford has been experimenting with a hybrid Mustang. With this system, a hybrid Mustang has the potential for greatness. We are expecting a high-powered, fuel efficient force of nature with mind blowing launching capabilities to make its way into the Blue Oval lineup in the near future. Feel free to take a look at the patent for yourself and let us know what you think!

Ford F-150 Lightning Range
Ask Us About the Ford F-150 Lightning
What is the Range of the
Ford F-150 Lightning?
Driving is more electrifying than ever before as more brands push to reduce carbon emissions by producing gasoline-free, fully-electric vehicles. Ford changed the electric vehicle game with the introduction of the Ford F-150 Lightning, the Blue Oval Brand’s first all-electric pickup truck. This past March, Ford Motor Company finally announced the Ford F-150 Lightning range, giving drivers an idea of just how far this pickup truck can travel on a single charge. As your source for all things Ford in Aberdeen, MD, Preston Ford of Aberdeen is pleased to announce the Ford F-150 Lightning’s range to our customers.
Ford F-150 Lightning Range
The most impressive models in the Ford F-150 Lightning lineup are the F-150 Lightning XLT ER and the F-150 Lightning Lariat at 320 miles. On the lower end, the F-150 Lightning Pro SR, the F-150 Lighting XLT SR, and the F-150 Lightning Larat SR are estimated to have a 230-mile range. Falling into the happy medium is the F-150 Lightning Platinum, with a 300-mile range. These are just numbers, but the proof of the Ford F-150 Lightning’s excellence lies in the evidence. A recent study on EVs performed by a team at the University of Michigan and Ford Motor Company found that pickup trucks have shown greater greenhouse gas emissions than other light-duty vehicles. The study found that when you replace an internal combustion engine pickup with one that has an electric battery, this results in a total reduction of 74 metric tons of carbon dioxide over the lifetime of the vehicle. In addition to offering an impressive reduction of greenhouse gasses, the Ford F-150 Lighting does not sacrifice an ounce of strength. Even with an all-electric powertrain, the truck can still tow up to 10,000 lbs. with the Extended Range battery and haul up to 2,000 lbs. with the Standard Range battery. You can even get towing add-ons, including Pro Trailer Hitch Assist, onboard scales, a Smart Hitch, and much more.

Car and Driver’s 2021 Electronic Vehicle of the Year: Ford Mustang Mach-E
The Ford Motor Company presents an exciting opportunity to those who wish to enter the electronic vehicle market with their new Ford Mustang Mach-E. Since its release, the electronic crossover has been considered top of its class. The Mach-E has modern features and technology that gives the vehicle an elegant feel, while also providing the classic speed and power of the traditional gas powered vehicles. The Mach-E has incredible features for an electronic vehicle. This crossover not only provides the customer with all-wheel drive, but also a battery capacity that lasts 270 miles. For those who love the original Ford Mustang for its speed, the Mach-E has the capability of 346 horsepower and the ability to reach 60 mph in just 4.9 seconds.
Due to all of the amazing vehicle features, the Mach-E has won the title of 2021 Electronic Vehicle of the Year from Car and Driver from a pool of 10 other electronic vehicles. Categories studied on these 10 electronic vehicles include value and mission fulfillment. The Mach-E continues to set the standard in the electronic market and is a benchmark for all future electronic vehicles leading to it winning this prestigious award. In addition, the vehicle is priced reasonably, being only several thousand greater than the average new vehicle cost. Due to this, we suspect the Mach-E will only continue to gain popularity as one of the best overall electronic vehicles on the market.
