2022 MUSTANG MACH-E GT PERFORMANCE - TAKE THIS OVER A TESLA MODEL Y PERFORMANCE?

EV Channels Review

The reviewer thoroughly examines the 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E GT Performance Edition, highlighting its striking 'Cyber Orange' paint and aggressive styling cues that differentiate it from standard models. Key features praised include the Brembo brakes, 20-inch performance tires, and the adaptive MagneRide suspension, which contribute to its planted and minimal body roll during spirited driving. The interior receives positive remarks for its Ford Performance seats, the large 15.5-inch infotainment screen with wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, and the useful 10.2-inch digital cluster. The optional BlueCruise hands-free driving system is lauded as a "very solid" and "relaxing" feature for highway commutes, despite its limitations like manual lane changes. Performance is a major focus, with the 480 hp and 634 lb-ft of torque enabling a 3.5-second 0-60 mph time, enhanced by the "unbridled" driving mode and a surprisingly satisfying, albeit artificial, propulsion sound. Real-world range is estimated around 350 km. The reviewer ultimately leans towards the Mach-E GT Performance over the Tesla Model Y Performance, citing styling preferences and interior features like the volume knob and instrument cluster as deciding factors, though acknowledging a reported power output limit for battery longevity.
