Businesses that operate Ford commercial plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEV) or electric vehicles (EV) are presented with three charging options. At Taw Ford, we provide our business customers with a wide range of services that are designed to help deliver elegant charging solutions and optimal productivity.
If you have any questions about EV or PHEVs and how to charge them, please get in touch with us as soon as you’re ready.
The
easiest way to charge an EV or PHEV is via a standard domestic power supply.
However, this is the slowest charging option.
For
faster charging speeds, we recommend a Ford Connected Wallbox; with help from
our friends at British Gas/Centrica, we can ensure quick and easy installation
at your home.
Please contact the team at Taw Ford if you have any questions.
The
best way to ensure your Ford EVs/PHEVs are fully charged and ready for work is
with a Ford Depot Charging solution.
We can
provide you with a bespoke Depot Charging set-up, featuring industry-leading
hardware and operating software that will help you manage your fleet more
effectively.
For
more details, please get in touch with us today.
When
you’re out on the road, it’s always handy to know the whereabouts of your
nearest fast-charging public connector. The BlueOval Charge Network provides
all the information you need, including access points, availability, charging
speeds and prices.
Let’s look at the three main causes of reduced range in EVs.
Heavy acceleration and driving speeds
Rapid and continued acceleration, as well as high-speed driving, represent big drains on battery power.
Climate and temperature
Temperature extremes have a negative impact on range. For instance, during particularly warm weather, air-conditioning usage goes up, resulting in a drain on battery power; and when it’s especially cold, in-cabin heating has a similar effect. Also, during cold temperatures, a battery needs to heat itself in order to work at optimal levels.
Payload
The more payload (and crew members) a vehicle carries, the greater the demand on battery power.
If you have any questions regarding Ford Pro Charging or our electric/hybrid vehicles, please get in touch with the Taw Ford team at your earliest convenience.
