Update: Ford Mustang Mach-E Leaks With 300-Mile Range, 0-60 In 3.5 Seconds

Today, that vehicle has a name: Mustang Mach-E. The Mach-E portion of the name is not surprising given previous reports, but it is interesting to see that Ford is actually using the Mustang name to market the vehicle. The Mustang Mach-E might draw inspiration from its namesake, but the Mustang name has always been applied to two-door coupes, fastbacks, and convertibles. How will the Mustang faithful react to the storied name being applied to a four-door electric crossover that will probably be pushing close to 5,000 pounds? That remains to be seen, but Ford is most definitely amped about the prospects of this vehicle. Ford says that it will officially unveil the Mustang Mach-E at an event in Los Angeles on November 17th. The event will be live-streamed on YouTube, and actor Idris Elba will be on hand to help launch the vehicle. The render at the top of this article is based on CAD leaks and test mules that have been spied running around Dearborn, Michigan. It definitely has muscular good looks, and the back of the vehicle in particular takes clear inspiration from the Mustang. Yesterday we were provided with the official name of the Mustang Mach-E, and now Ford has gone a leaked pretty much every detail that it hoped to save until Sunday evening. Someone over at the MachEForum managed to stumble across Ford's active sub-site for the Mustang Mach-E and was able to grab screenshots before the automaker shut it down. 60,000 in top-end trims. Driving range measures between 235 miles to 300 miles depending on trim, and 0-60 performance ranges from around seconds to 3.5 seconds. Rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive configurations will be available, and it's said that the Mustang Mach-E can add just under 50 miles of range with just a 10-minute charge.

At Ford, I am a paying customer and they value my business. Not so much with Tesla. Maybe you need to look up "customer", because I don't think that word means what you think it means. You don't buy anything from Ford, you don't pay anything to Ford, you never interact with Ford employers. You are not their customer. The dealership is their customer. The pedantry is high in this thread. I think the Mustang Mach E is a fine competitor to the Y and a great addition to the EV market. It鈥檚 specs look like they are taking on the Model Y head-on in body style, price, and performance. Not everything is directly comparable, but it鈥檚 a good go. 鈥淏ring it on鈥?as Musk would say. I don鈥檛 care what so-called Mustang fans will think of this car. When it beats 90% of all Mustangs ever sold at the track, they might start to notice it.

What I do care about is if this car has a 50-state roll-out and is truly 鈥渁vailable鈥?or if dealers and Ford willingly or otherwise restrict or prevent its sale. I鈥檇 bet you that they will. I鈥檒l test drive one in Michigan as soon as I can. I think they will be built here. I expect peak 150kw charging. I have to agree this is one of the better looking entries into the space. Unfortunately, the challenges when comparing against Tesla are similar to what we've all seen with other competitors. The range is typically less (seen here mostly with the GT model), and although CCS fast charging is growing at a rapid pace (mostly via Electrify America), it still isn't where supercharging is at. Overall, I'm impressed, but hard to say how successful it will be against the Model 3/Y. It does look "competitive" that's for sure. I don't understand the arrogance of Tesla fans. The product is the ONLY reason to buy a Tesla.

The service is pathetic, they treat customers like we should be grateful they are willing to take our money. It takes forever to get service, parts, etc. They give attitude if you ask basic questions, like when might my car be delivered or why does my trunk not close on a brand new car. If I have to give up 20 miles range to not be treated like an amoeba, I will do it. With Tesla not being known for reliability, why buy from them if a competitive product exists? Are people so in love with Elon? I could care less about FSD, so that is not a selling point for me. I am really thinking about cancelling my order now that it seems Tesla will not be the only game in town soon. Plus the Ford will be cheaper due to the higher tax rebate. In movie hierarchy "inspired by" is even weaker than "based on". Maybe you need to look up "customer", because I don't think that word means what you think it means.
