Customers who have ordered a Ford Mustang Mach-E don’t need to wait until delivery to start configuring their vehicle.
All they need to do is install the FordPass App on their smartphone or access Ford Owner Web on the computer to create a driver profile in order to gain access to a series of settings allowing them to pre-configure their Mustang Mach-E.
Debuting on the electric SUV, Remote Vehicle Setup lets customers establish favorite destinations, pre-set climate control preferences, find nearby charging stations and even choose the preferred drive experience mode from the comfort of their own home – all before the car even arrives.

Remote Vehicle Setup configurations are stored in the cloud before the customer sends the profile to their Mustang Mach-E using their smartphone to apply the personalized settings. In doing so, customers save time in the setup process and can get straight to driving upon taking delivery of their vehicle.
Upon collecting their new Mustang Mach-E from the dealer, all they have to do is send these personal settings to the EV from their smartphone. Users can then manage the features configured in Remote Vehicle Setup via the FordPass App or in the vehicle itself.
Remote Vehicle Setup sends these settings to SYNC 4A, which uses machine learning to quickly learn drivers’ preferences. Ford says the system gets even better over time thanks to advanced over-the-air updates, including a planned update that allows for personalization of radio presets before delivery.
“‘One-size fits all’ fits no one,” Sheryl Connelly, Ford’s chief futurist said. “Consumers want personalized products, services and experiences. Mustang Mach-E’s Remote Vehicle Setup lets them customize their own profile before they ever slide into the driver’s seat, meaning every Mach-E can be unique.”
The all-electric Mustang Mach-E will start hitting U.S. streets near the end of the year, giving reservation holders plenty of time to pre-configure the vehicle in great detail.
