ROAD TRIP THROUGH UTAH IN THE MUSTANG MACH-E

EV Channels Review

This live road trip through Utah in the Mustang Mach-E highlights both the vehicle's strengths and significant charging frustrations. The reviewer praises the Mach-E's solid, quiet, and well-engineered feel, comparing it favorably to Tesla's build quality and noting its surprisingly good ride comfort despite stiff seats. However, the primary focus is on the abysmal charging experience, with repeated issues interfacing with Electrify America and other CCS networks, leading to a success rate below 50%. The reviewer contrasts this with Tesla's seamless charging infrastructure, emphasizing that while the Mach-E is a competent EV for daily driving and offers a premium feel, its long-distance road trip capability is severely hampered by charging network unreliability. The efficiency was also noted as poor (2.1 miles/kWh) due to aggressive driving and elevation changes, though better figures were achieved under normal highway conditions.
