Ford, Bosch to Use Virtual Reality to Train Techs on Electric Mustang Mach-E
DEARBORN, MI — Technicians soon will be trained how to service and maintain the all-electric Mustang Mach-E without need to access a physical model with a new virtual reality (VR) training tool from Ford and Bosch.
“Technicians will be immersed in a simulated and gamified world, meaning they won’t need to rely on actual Mustang Mach-E vehicles to learn about its components, including the electric SUV’s new high-voltage system,” says Dave Johnson, director of Ford service engineering operations. “This new virtual reality training tool allows technicians to understand the components and steps required to service these high-voltage systems, then confidently perform diagnostics and maintenance.”
