MUSTANG MACH-E: 0-100% STANDARD RANGE BATTERY CHARGING TEST

EV Channels Review

This video presents a comprehensive charging test of the 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E AWD Premium Standard Range battery, documenting the process from 0% to 100%. The reviewer highlights that the vehicle still exhibits good pickup even at a 2% state of charge and estimates that reaching a charger within 10 miles should be feasible if the battery is at 10%. The charging test itself was conducted in two parts due to logistical reasons. Initial charging from 0% to 91% saw peak speeds around 100-115 kW, with 80% reached in approximately 43 minutes. The latter half of the charge, from 80% to 100%, experienced a significant taper, taking another hour to complete. Charging from 89% to 100% took 33 minutes, with speeds dropping considerably in the final stages. The reviewer notes issues with Electrify America chargers, including payment failures and chargers being derated to 35 kW. The editorial conclusion is that charging beyond 80% is not recommended due to the slow speeds and potential battery strain, advising viewers to focus on the 0-80% range for optimal charging efficiency.
