While we prefer to brag about the other 265 days, for vehicle manufacturers like Ford \u2014\u00a0particularly product and development teams \u2014 the hotter, the better. To make sure that their vehicles can withstand the most extreme conditions, companies like Ford perform hot-weather testing to identify potential issues before their vehicles reach consumers. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ford has been testing vehicles in Arizona since 1946, starting in a Phoenix garage, then moving to their first proving grounds in Yucca in 1955. They\u2019ve been at the current facility since 2004. Arizona is the ideal testing location, not only because of the heat, but because of the road dust, city traffic, mountain grades, and the variety of altitudes. The temperate winter climate allows for development work that can\u2019t be done in the snowy Detroit weather. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I had a rare behind-the-curtain look at the Arizona Proving Grounds (APG) outside of Wittmann to see first-hand how this testing is done, and as an added bonus, get a sneak preview of the 2018 Ford Expedition. We were able to ride along for a trailer tow demonstration on the Expedition, a high-speed heat management test, and a tire exercise on the wet pad. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Obviously, the Expedition, while not yet available in dealers, is beyond the testing stage, so this was merely a demonstration. We got a taste of its best-in-class towing capability, and rode along as it quietly and effortlessly reached speeds in the triple digits around the test track. The tires held firm (even as passengers were tossed around) during a circuitous trip on the wet pad. <\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5453\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5453\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  class=\"size-medium wp-image-5453 pk-lqip pk-lazyload\"  src=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/18171757\/File_000-80x60.jpeg\"  alt=\"\"  width=\"300\"  height=\"225\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/18171757\/File_000-300x225.jpeg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/18171757\/File_000-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/18171757\/File_000-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/18171757\/File_000-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/18171757\/File_000-200x150.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/18171757\/File_000-260x195.jpeg 260w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/18171757\/File_000-380x285.jpeg 380w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/18171757\/File_000-800x600.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/18171757\/File_000-1160x870.jpeg 1160w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/18171757\/File_000-80x60.jpeg 80w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/18171757\/File_000-750x563.jpeg 750w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/18171757\/File_000-620x465.jpeg 620w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/18171757\/File_000-83x63.jpeg 83w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/18171757\/File_000-850x638.jpeg 850w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/18171757\/File_000.jpeg 1500w\" ><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5453\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A Ford test technician explains how sensors monitor temperatures both outside and inside the vehicle.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Were this actual testing, engineers would have nearly 300 sensors hooked to the vehicle, recording ambient temperature, air-conditioning pressures, engine speed<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">fluid temperatures, and sun load. Sensors attached to the windows, seats, radio, and all around the drivers and passengers monitor cabin temperature. All of this is done to see how the vehicle will respond to the extreme heat. Can the system cool the engine sufficiently under heavy loads? Does exposure to the sun deteriorate the paint and other materials? Can electric vehicles perform and charge adequately? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe want bad things to happen here, rather than before the vehicles reach the public,\u201d explained Robbie Schaffer, APG test technician. The important work done at APG has paid off, earning Ford a number two ranking among all non-premium brands in J.D. Power\u2019s Initial Quality Study. One of Arizona\u2019s best kept secrets is helping Ford improve the quality of its vehicles and the safety of the public. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"arizona-proving-grounds-by-the-numbers\">Arizona Proving Grounds By the Numbers<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>$213 million<\/strong> &#8211; Benefit to the state and local economy since 2004<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>1,500<\/strong> &#8211; number of acres comprised (leased from the State of Arizona, governed by Maricopa County)<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>19<\/strong> miles of paved surfaces<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>3<\/strong> miles of dust surfaces<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>2<\/strong> acre wet vehicle dynamics area<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>20<\/strong> acre dry vehicle dynamics area<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Arizona Proving Grounds is the hot spot for vehicle safety testing\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":5454,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[403,619,163,12,237,620,621,622,618,219,617,275],"class_list":{"0":"post-5452","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-auto-news","8":"tag-azfoothillsvroom","9":"tag-arizona-proving-grounds","10":"tag-becky-antioco","11":"tag-featured","12":"tag-ford","13":"tag-ford-proving-grounds","14":"tag-ford-testing","15":"tag-hot-weather-testing","16":"tag-proving-grounds","17":"tag-suv","18":"tag-vehicle-testing","19":"tag-vroom","20":"cs-entry","21":"cs-video-wrap"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
