2021 FORD MUSTANG MACH E FINAL THOUGHTS: WOULD WE BUY ONE?

EV Channels Review

The 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E Premium Extended Range AWD is presented as a compelling, fun-to-drive electric crossover, particularly for families, offering surprising performance with a 0-60 mph time of 4.8 seconds and a comfortable, well-finished interior that rivals Tesla. Key positives include its instant torque, seamless one-pedal driving in traffic, and practicality, with ample space for passengers and cargo, even fitting a 29-inch mountain bike. However, the vehicle's major drawback is its range, especially for road trips. The reviewers found that at 80% charge, the usable range dropped to around 190 miles, necessitating frequent charging stops every two hours on longer journeys. The lack of cooled seats is also noted as a significant demerit, particularly for a vehicle with a glass roof in warmer climates. While the driving dynamics and overall experience are praised, the reviewers ultimately conclude that it would not be their sole vehicle due to range limitations and the current state of EV charging infrastructure, leaving them not quite ready to buy one yet.
