What is Ford Telematics™ Geofence?

A geofence is a virtual perimeter for a geographic area of interest. You can create unique geofences for frequently visited areas such as parking lots, job sites, filling stations, or service facilities, to name a few examples. The geofence tab lists all geofences created by the fleet, and the vehicles inside these geofences. This tool tracks when vehicles enter or leave the geofence.

Geo-fencing would automatically modify the settings on the vehicle based on the current location – using a geographic boundary defined by GPS technology – and switch to EV Now when the vehicle enters a low-emission zone within an inner-city area.

EV Now mode can only operate when the batteries are sufficiently charged. If there is not enough electrical power, the system will revert to EV Auto and the EcoBoost engine range extender may engage to recharge the battery. So please bear this in mind when you enter a low emission zone and keep an eye on your battery state of charge.
