  1. Have a little over 300 miles on our 22 and seeing around mid twenties for range here in Iowa. The last month has been bitter cold here with several days with highs in the single digits. I don’t remember a winter this cold for quite some time. The last couple days temperatures have moderated some and range has jumped to the mid thirties. Hoping for an early spring here to see how much range can be had with this machine.

    You won't get any e-mail communications from Ford unless your e-mail address is attached to the order in the WBDO (Web Based Dealer Ordering) system. The WBDO screenshot of your order will show the priority code only. What is the document your Dealer provided showing an "anticipated build date"? The "anticipated build date" is only shown on the AM Preview Scheduling Report, that I can think of, and only in a week that the Dealer has regular allocation for scheduling and your order shows as being selected for scheduling that Thursday. All other scheduling details are in the Vehicle Visibility reports. 

     

    Evidently they did not attach my email as to this day I have not gotten anything from Ford. I’m not sure what the screenshot is of…appears to be the actual order application. The top right has the dealer name/code and just below is buttons for new order, preview, submit, and more actions.

    That's awesome, hopefully we'll also get some good news! I'm in Michigan, have not been able to get anyone at Ford or the dealer to tell us the build priority.


    Since I never got a confirmation from Ford I asked for proof that I actually had an order. Dealer sent me screenshots of their system showing build priority and anticipated build date. Good luck!

    Anyone with an order for a titanium phev get a build date yet? 105 days and counting since order confirmation for ours with the titanium premium, panoramic moon roof and spare tire.


    Santa brought us a window sticker with blend date 120220106. Appears that after the planned shutdown ours will be built. 
     

    @bredick What was your priority and what part of the country are you in?  Hang in there things are moving.

    Your build sounds almost identical to ours. Ours was supposed to be built this week, but have not heard anything yet.

    A lot of the available EA charging stations are at Walmarts, and not necessarily near anything where you could eat/use the restroom.  The other issue is the lack of charging stations on rural interstates (I-70, I-80, I-90) through the central states.  They exist, but are often spaced out (even the Tesla supercharger sites aren't very plentiful).  There are almost 0 public chargers off of the interstate system in the central states, so traveling north/south is impractical, unless you are on I-25 or I-35.  Perhaps local utilities and the government could help subsidize by giving tax credits to existing gas stations and travel stops to install the necessary equipment for DC fast charging in those areas.  States should add them to rest stops as well.


    Just off of I-80 here in Iowa there are chargers being installed and should be ready to go online soon. Also, two weeks ago on the Indiana turnpike there were several chargers being installed as well. No doubt the Midwest is behind, but we are slowly catching up.

    Just wondering if I'm alone in seeing less than advertised EV range. I've seen as little as 30 miles on a full charge.

     

    Granted, driving style has an impact no doubt and my wife has been primarily driving my 2021 Escape PHEV, but I'm just wondering if others are getting the 37 EV only miles (or more). Any tips on boosting the range? Thanks!


    If it behaves anything like our Volt, and I’m hoping it does. The main points are to utilize the heated seats instead of resistance heating when possible. As you eluded to already driving style has a lot to do with it. Our Volt also sees a reduction in range with my wife driving as well. 
     

    Our Escape PHEV is scheduled for production in December, so it will be a few months before I can give any real world feedback.

    Hoping to get my VIN number from my dealer too so I can track it. You were able to get it a week or two after ordering? Ordered mine in September. So my dealer should have mine then.  Did your dealer change priority for you?   My order says 19.  


    From my understanding only Ford can assign priority 1-9, so I’m not sure how it got assigned.

     

    Prior to ordering I could not locate a PHEV within 250 miles, it’s possible that Ford regional got involved.

    Curious if there's a ballpark estimate on how backed up the 2022 Escape PHEV orders are. I put an order in on 10/3 and I believe Ford was going to start production on the 2022s on 11/2.

     

    Basically, do I have a reason to hope I'll be taking delivery by the end of 2021?


    I also ordered a 22 Escape PHEV, but have not received anything from Ford in regards to a confirmation. Wondering if you received anything?
