6 Ways To Beat the Heat with Ford This Summer
The dog days of summer will be here soon, but Ford models make it easy to stay cool with modern conveniences. The following standard and available features from Ford provide relief from the heat.*
Comprehensive Controls
Ford passengers can enjoy multi-zone automatic climate control systems with intuitive air temperature sensors and cabin particulate air filter. The multi-zone systems offer separate temperature and airflow settings for the driver and passengers. The temperature sensors help the system to know when the desired cabin temperature has been reached and automatically reduce air flow to maintain that temperature instead of continuing to blast cold air.
One-Touch Panoramic Power Moonroof
There's nothing more refreshing on a hot day than opening all the windows and the moonroof and feeling the breeze blow through your hair. Ford models really make it a breeze with one-touch panoramic power moonroofs. With the single press of a button, the huge moonroof opens and you can breathe again.
Go Topless
If the expansive panoramic moonroofs are not enough for you, how about taking off the roof entirely? There's not much in the world that's more liberating than tearing up the road in the legendary Ford Mustang drop-top.
Ventilated Seats
Some Ford models offer perforated seats that can provide quick personal ventilation for passengers in the front and rear seats. The perforations in the seat material wick air away from the occupants, quickly cooling to a comfortable temperature.
Integrated Sunshades
Of course, the sun can bake a car like an oven, so Ford offers a rear-window power sunshade in the Ford Taurus. The shade is conveniently built into the rear-window frame and easily slides up to shade passengers in the rear. When not in use, the shades simply slide down and disappear into the frame.
Pre-Conditioned Cabins
Thanks to the latest in connectivity, Ford drivers can air condition the cabin before they even open the car door. Simply download the FordPass™ app on a compatible smartphone and sync the app to your vehicle. The app can be used for many remote control functions like locking and unlocking doors or starting the engine. Set the car's climate control to the desired setting when you turn off the car, and the next time you start the car remotely, the air conditioning will come on, filling the cabin with cool air so the inside is a comfortable temperature on a hot day.
