Ford Mustang Mach-E SUV - An impressive first EV from the blue oval apart from price

Motor Torque with David Berthon

Driving the Ford Mustang Mach-E electric SUV today – a interesting EV from the Blue Oval, I’m driving the mid-spec Mustang Mach-E Premium, sitting between the entry Select and the potent GT, the Mach-e Premium first arrived last year at $91,665, was dropped to $86,990 in late 2023 and again on May 31 to $79,990, around $88,700 drive-away. Still a rather hefty price considering most electric opposition is well south of this figure – as such just 388 Ford Mustang Mach-E’s have been sold July year-to date. Having said that from my perspective the Mach- E Premium has some very rewarding features – a single motor rear wheel drive with 216kW/430Nm of torque, the Premium gaining a larger 91kWh nickel cobalt manganese battery providing an impressive 600Km range. The overall design of this electric Ford SUV appeals, roomy in both rows in a coupe style SUV body with good luggage space, an impressive dash, an impressive instrument cluster and a huge and an innovative 15.5-inch portrait style touchscreen that sets it apart from many similar touchscreens. Disappointingly, the premium price is the only factor stopping the Ford Mach-E from gaining a larger market share. Ford still losing 2 billion dollars a quarter in their electric car division. Drive details next. I’m David Berthon.
