FORD'S #1 EV PROBLEM ISN'T WHAT YOU THINK!

EV Channels Review

The reviewer expresses significant disappointment with Ford's recent decisions regarding its EV offerings, particularly the F-150 Lightning. The primary criticisms focus on the severely limited and poorly implemented BlueCruise system in Canada, which lags far behind competitors like GM's Super Cruise. Additionally, the "plug and pay" public charging functionality, once a useful feature, has been removed from the truck's interface and relegated to a cumbersome process within the Ford Pass app. The internal navigation's inability to integrate Tesla Superchargers and the overall decline in integrated software features are highlighted as major setbacks. The reviewer concludes that Ford appears to be reversing course on EV adoption, leading to a frustrating user experience that could jeopardize its position as an EV innovator. The reliance on third-party solutions like Google Maps via Android Auto is seen as a sign of Ford giving up on developing its own integrated software.
