The electric revolution is excellent news for the environment, for drivers, for the future of the automotive industry.  As the market for EVs and hybrids explodes, how are these vehicles going to be charged? How is the industry keeping up with the demand for charging stations, and how is it making owning an EV or hybrid convenient as well as smart?


As you would expect, Ford Motor Company is at the forefront of the electric charging industry, making sure Ford drivers have access to the charging stations they need with the largest charging network in the country- actually the largest in North America- with more charging opportunities being added every day.


Ford calls it the Blue Oval Charge Network, and it’s truly an awe-inspiring feat and commitment by the company and its partners. It certainly makes us confident at Jenkins & Wynne that when you buy a Ford EV or hybrid from us, your purchase is backed by unprecedented charging opportunities, to keep you on the go, wherever you may be.

As Ford explains it, “The BlueOval Charge Network is a huge network…of networks. Access a variety of charging providers without a bunch of confusing swipe-cards and phone apps.  Get pay-as-you-go access to ElectrifyAmerica®, Shell Recharge Solutions™, ChargePoint®, EVgo, EV Connect™, SemaConnect™, FLO® and Electric Circuit.”  It’s teamwork at its finest, and it’s designed to make owning and operating an EV or hybrid easier than ever.


Want to see for yourself?  Ford Motor Company has an online feature that lets you put the network to work- plotting out your trip- be it real or hypothetical- and showing you exactly where you can stop to charge along the way. You simply enter your starting point and final destination, and the mapping tool will do all the work for you- lining up charging points, and loading you with information about travel times and capabilities, based on your vehicle. 


Once you purchase your new Ford EV or Hybrid, you get FordPass- an entire suite of app-based products dedicated to your vehicles performance and travel needs.  The Power My Trip feature acts as your navigator.  You can plan your directions according to your charge level with the Intelligent Range feature, get real time help finding charge stations along the way, and see all your charging options so you know the fastest, most efficient way to stay on the move. It also allows you to keep track of your usage, and earn Blue Oval rewards! And the best part:  FordPass seamlessly connects your vehicle and your phone, which helps you connect, control and communicate with your Ford. You can even plug in and set departure times to pre-heat or pre-cool your battery and cabin before you drive. Activate your phone as a key, and your smartphone replaces your traditional key fob!


Sound too good to be true? It’s not!  FordPass is available right now on Ford EVs and Hybrids that we’d love to show you at Jenkins & Wynne Ford.  Simply stop in our showroom at 2655 Trenton Road in Clarksville, TN, or contact us online to learn more about Blue Oval, FordPass, and the convenience of owning a Ford EV or hybrid!
