Ford adds pulse to its electric vehicle charging network

Ford is expanding its partnership with bp by adding the pulse charging network to the Ford Pass charging network in the UK.

The move comes ahead of the arrival of the all-electric Mustang Mach-E and increases Ford’s UK network from almost 3,000 charge points to around 9,500.

Ford Mustang Mach-E drivers can use FordPass to locate, navigate to, monitor and pay for charging at over 6,600 charge points in the UK belonging to the new bp pulse network.

Mustang Mach-E owners will have one year’s free bp pulse access, including a rapidly growing number of high-power 150kW DC chargers, 50kW DC chargers and almost 6,000 7kW AC points.

Ford’s Mustang Mach-E performance Battery Electric Vehicle also reassures, thanks to its intelligent range calculations drawing on live data to produce as accurate an available range display as possible, taking into account weather conditions on route affecting capability and information from other Mustang Mach-Es.

The inclusion of bp’s pulse network into the FordPass network is in addition to 3,000 existing chargers. Also available to Mach-E drivers is one year’s free subscription to Ionity’s ultra-fast chargers at 15 sites in the UK and five in Ireland.

Ford offers its Ford Connected Wallbox for all-electric and plug-in hybrid vehicle customers at home – delivering up to five times the charging power of a typical domestic socket.
