Tire Burning Mode Coming to Ford’s Electric Cars

The burning of rubber (also known as Burnout), which we often see in movies and video games, may seem very easy from the outside, but it is actually compared to an ordinary person. It is a very difficult and complex process to do.. Moreover, when you burn tires, you can quickly melt the tires of your vehicle, if you continue. You could seriously damage the vehicle..

But of course, these dangers don’t change the fact that burning tires is pretty cool. Knowing this, Ford knocked on the door of the US Patent Office to add a “tire burning mode” to its new electric cars.

Warning: Burning tires can pose a serious danger to you, your vehicle and those around you if it is not controlled. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you try such things by taking the necessary safety precautions in traffic-free areas.

If you want, you will be able to “burn” 4 tires at once.

Ford announced yesterday to the US patent office that electric cars are optionally available in the rear, front or allowing both rear and front tires to be burned It turned out that he applied for a patent for the “Tyre Burning Mode” (Burnout Mode). When you activate this mode, the ECU, which we can call the brain of the vehicle, locks the brakes on the other wheels according to which tires you want to burn, allowing you to burn tires easily while the vehicle is stationary.

In fact, the tire burning mode has been in some internal combustion vehicles for a long time. 2015 model and later 4.6 liter and 5 liter Ford Mustang GT’This feature, which has become popular with McLaren 675LT It was also used in some super sports cars such as In addition, Ford introduced Ford for the first time in 2020. Mustang Mach-E Prototype (This vehicle was an improved prototype of the standard Mach-E model) In his 4×4 electric car named “4×4 Tire Burning ModHe introduced his experimental feature, which he called ”.

The reason why this patent of Ford is interesting is; The US automotive giant is preparing the feature for use in mass production electric vehicles for the first time. So in summary; Now everyone can burn tires.

Tire burning mode actually makes your job easier by doing all the operations you need to do in a standard internal combustion vehicle. For example, if you select the rear wheels when you activate the mode, the ECU locks the brakes on the front wheels and regulates the vehicle’s electric motors to deliver maximum torque. Afterwards, when you press the brake and the gas at the same time, the vehicle can burn the tire without any difficulty.

Especially found in some electric cars high torque output even in small electric motors It shows us that this feature can become widespread very easily and can be found in almost every electric car.

If this feature, patented by Ford, becomes widespread, burning tires that once required talent could turn into something ordinary that anyone can do.
