We have been coming across news that many automobile giants have removed or want to remove the radio from their electric models for a while. Companies such as BMW, Volkswagen, Volvo and Mazda are said to be aiming to remove AM radio from electric models by 2024.
Now, it has been confirmed by company spokesperson Wes Sherwood that Ford will join these names. Sherwood explained to the Detroit Free Press that we’ve seen recent models where the company uses a radio.
So why especially electric cars?
To put it simply; Such an action is taken to prevent the engine in electric cars from being affected by radio signals. Because even the smallest problem in the engine can lead to bigger problems.
For this reason, automobile manufacturers think that not using the radio is the most logical solution to the problems that may be encountered in the future. For this reason, they have already started work. On the other hand, the new generation electric cars that Ford will launch in 2024 will be produced without AM radio for the first time. So some of the first models without AM radio could be the F-150 Lightning and Mustang Mach-E.
