Has anyone concrete news about EUROPE avaiability of S650 ?

[mobiax]

That's a good shout.

I think it is because it seems that the light is the one from the Mach-E. But to be sure

I will be able to drive a EU S650 next week and record it. If anybody has special things he wants to know or see, please let me know. Car is brand new, so of course no performance measurements

GT or Dark Horse?

Stock exhaust sound on idle and low Revs please!

Already filmed that, check the video at 13:35
It sounds slightly different on film to the 18 GT because of the different environment, to our ears it sounded identical to 18 GT

Could you check if there will be USB port in the rear view mirror?

Already checked that, the EU GT has the USB port behind the mirror

Please check if reverse light and rear fog lamp is also LED

Good point, will check that

GT or Dark Horse?

Should be a GT, afaik the Dark Horses haven't arrived yet. But don't know if MT or AT

 

[Saburak]

so the GT has no rear spoiler ?

if you could test the auto start/stop function that would be cool, just curious to see how it works and how reactive it is.

In your video we saw that the side mirrors retracted when the car closed or opened, is that a feature we can control? (in your interior part of the video we see that the button to manually do it is there but I was wondering if the function can be turned on or off in the settings).

It was mentioned by former Engineer who worked on Australian and European Platform that the start / stop enables only in Normal mode. Race / track is disabled.

I can confirm the mirror folds with the use of the key fob when lock / unlock. We In Australia have some what similar spec with EU how ever we have a tad more kW and Nm of power and NO Petrol particulate filters!... thank goodness.

Regarding the EU version,are we talking about the remote start via Ford Pass app,right? As far as I know there won't be a remote start available via keyfob

Was there ever one in the previous model ? Australia didn't have the Remote start featured until 2022 Models. We will defiantly not get the Remote Rev feature as according to EPA its "Noise pollution and a nuisance" It is a gimmick feature but when I install after market I don't need second person to ask to sit in the seat and rev for me to hear how it sounds haha.

Im confused now, when you say auto start stop you mean the technology detects when your car comes to a halt and stops the engine automatically, then starts the engine again for you when you press the throttle?

The physical key fob, tiny remote control with an RFID chip and an antenna inside and I just re read your message above I miss read the question was to disable / enable the mirror fold my apologies it was 4am when I wrote back was still not awake yet haha. So I don't think you can disable it, why would you, I think it's great to have them folded.

Oops my bad, I confused start/stop with the remote start,sorry about that

So now my request for Ace, would it be possibile to test the remote start via Ford Pass app if that's not too much of an headache? Thx!

I doubt I can connect the car to the fordpass app

I'll tell you what Ford should have put in the APP is hvac setting incase the screen in the car is non functional you can use the App to control the hvac since they removed the physical buttons.

One more thing: Can you validate that it really has 2x isofix in the back? I convinced the wife that this was a family car...

Here's the one I will drive next Saturday, a GT with AT. On pictures its my favorite s650 color, can't wait to see it live

yes at least we can turn it off. Still it would be interesting to see if it works well. sometimes in jams, railroad crossings or long red lights could be practical
