Ford has drawn a conclusion from 2 billion cumulative miles of real-world driving data collected across its electric vehicle fleet: after 100,000 miles, EV batteries still retain an average state of health above 90%, with degradation far less severe than most consumers expect. Since launching its first all-electric SUV, the Mustang Mach-E, in late 2020, Ford has gathered battery data from more than 36,000 vehicles in the U.S. and Canadian markets. The Mach-E's average battery health has reached 92% over the past five years. When all pure electric models are included in the statistics, average pack health at 100,000 miles also exceeds 90%, with 95% of vehicles falling within the 87%–97% range—a notably concentrated distribution. Among them, more than 2,000 vehicles from the 2021 model year that have surpassed 100,000 miles still average over 91% health on their original batteries, and more than 30 vehicles that have exceeded 200,000 miles average 88% health—helping to ease consumers' concerns about battery lifespan. Ford also offers daily battery care recommendations: prioritize Level 2 home slow charging for daily commuting and reserve DC fast charging for long-distance travel; avoid charging in extreme temperatures, and use the battery preconditioning feature to bring the battery to its optimal temperature range before charging; in summer, try to park in the shade. Its official app also provides tailored charging recommendations for different models and battery types—for example, newer models equipped with lithium iron phosphate batteries are advised to charge to 100% periodically to calibrate the battery level. This real-world driving data will also feed back into Ford's next-generation EV development. The first model built on the universal EV platform, the Fantom mid-size electric pickup truck, will open for reservations in early 2027; the 2027 Mustang Mach-E is already on the market, with an 88 kWh large battery as standard across the lineup, and the rear-wheel-drive version has an EPA range of up to approximately 515 kilometers.
