Check out these neat logos. Haven't seen them before. Not on the Mustang Mach-E either.

1913 Quadricycle logo inside the frunk. Access door to the 12V battery.

1913 Quadricycle logo inside the charge port door.


QR code goes to Ford.com notice the plug/receptacle border.

Haha--I was about to post about this. I'm a sucker for quirks and features

There's an article about the 1913 Electric Ford Concept at Wired. Didn't know the concept existed until today!

The charger door cap is also shown here:

Lmao, glad they did that. The Tesla boys get all riled up when I tell them Ford did electric first

Nice. Hadn’t seen that video. Will post more if/when I find them.

I bet the Mach-E would have had this if only it had an access door for the 12V battery!

Haven't had to access it yet, thankfully. The charge port door doesn't have this little icon either though. There's a Pony logo and the word HORSEPOWER.

Me either. But if I ever do, I’ll wish it had a door. I’m glad it’s a feature on the Lightning, possibly learned from Mach-E experiences.

I love Easter Eggs like that. We've seen photos of the Frunk, but I've never noticed that icon before.
