Ford’s foray into the world of all-electric SUVs is the Mustang Mach-E. Available in a variety of configurations, the most potent version of the Mach-E is the GT Performance that has 480 hp and well over 600 lb-ft of torque.

The Mach-E is quite a comfortable EV with a decent amount of range. As should be expected with its name, there are plenty of styling cues borrowed from the Mustang pony car.

Pros

Spacious EV, fun-to-drive feel, fresh interior design

Cons

Regular battery is low on range, GT doesn't feel much quicker, pricey top trims

Bottom Line

The Mustang Mach-E successfully translates the pony car personality to a modern family-sized EV. It's fun and stylish, not a compliance car.

Ford Mustang Mach-E Rally Ushers in EV Road-Rally Car Era

There’s a new kid in town with a familiar name, familiar purpose, but entirely different make up. It’s a Mustang that hopes to carry-on the tradition of vehicles like the Focus RS, but in an all-electric SUV body. Behold the all-new Ford Mustang Mach-E Rally.


More than just a name, the newest member of the Mach-E family is a thorough overhaul of the electric SUV. Ford designed, tested, and tuned the Rally on a specially built rallycross course, logging plenty of dirt-slinging miles. The brand even benchmarked the rally-inspired Subaru WRX.

2023 Ford Mustang Mach-E GT vs 2023 Kia EV6 GT Comparison

Over 1,000 all-electric horsepower. That’s the outrageous combined figure these two powerhouse EVs are dishing.

No, that’s not a typo. There is indeed 1,056 hp on hand here, coming from some unlikely sources. First, there is the Kia EV6 GT. Kia’s long-roof EV SUV debut last year and for 2023 a high-performance version has joined the ranks.

Taking it on is the Ford Mustang Mach-E GT Performance. The Mach-E has been on sale a little bit longer, and the GT Performance is the most potent version of the Mach-E.

2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E GT Review: Quicker, Yet Compromised

ford mustang mach e review specs pricing features videos and more

We’re big fans of the Mustang Mach-E here at AutoGuide.

Heck, we liked it so much we crowned it our 2021 Electric Vehicle of the Year. Sure, we’re over two years out from the Mach-E’s reveal and the argument about its name appropriation still rages on. And that’s not going to calm down with this, the 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E GT.

Yes, Ford has stuck those two important letters onto the rounded rump of its all-electric horse. In many ways, it makes sense, offering V8 levels of thrust and a fun-loving handling balance. The price is steep however, and the GT makes enough concessions to ride quality and range to limit its appeal.

Ford has upped the Mach-E’s power for GT duty. While it draws from the same 98.7-kWh battery pack—91 of which is now usable—horsepower is up to 480, and torque is an even 600 pound-feet. Spec the Performance Edition like this—required in Canada, for now—and the latter figure swells to 634 lb-ft.

Ford Mustang Mach-E vs Tesla Model Y Comparison

ford mustang mach e review specs pricing features videos and more

Welcome to the next level of the domestic head-to-head battle.

In the red corner is the Ford Mustang Mach-E. Much has been said about Ford’s dedicated electric-only pony. No matter which side of the is-it-a-real-Mustang debate you fall on, you can’t deny the Mach-E has shaken up the segment, demanding attention in a segment that will get very crowded, very soon.

In the other red corner is the car that Ford so clearly targeted with the Mach-E: the Tesla Model Y. Tesla had first-mover advantage here, and yet the Model Y still holds the edge in (EPA quoted) range, to say nothing of its brand recognition. Tesla is practically synonymous with EVs, like Coca-Cola to pop or Kleenex to tissue paper. Not one of the people that stopped to ask me about the Mach-E did so without invoking the T-word. And there were many of them.

So we did the only thing we could do: we pit these two mid-size all-electric crossovers against one another. What resulted surprised us.

2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E Review: EV Power to the People

ford mustang mach e review specs pricing features videos and more

I can’t write what the gentlemen said when he spotted the 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E sitting at a red light.

Our new friend wasn’t ranting about the lack of V8, or the tenuous design links between the Mustang in front of him and the nameplate’s 57 years of history. No, he had stopped mid-step to launch into a profanity-laced exclamation of disbelief. Here in front of him was a blankin’ sick electric blankin’ Mustang SUV.

Dude was excited.

And thus the electric pony passed an important litmus test. Ford has built a solid EV to launch right in the heart of the market—the mid-size crossover space—but its on-paper specs barely matter. To be a true success, the Mach-E needs to win hearts as much as, if not more than, minds. Thankfully, the Mach-E succeeds on both fronts with only minor hangups, making this not just a good first attempt at an EV crossover, but a great crossover full stop.

The Nissan Ariya vs Ford Mustang Mach-E are two popular EV SUV choices. One has been in this space for a few years while the other is all-new.

The Mustang Mach-E is Ford’s feisty EV racehorse, complete with an iconic badge to instil excitement and performance. Entering its second year of production for 2022, the battery capacity is slightly increased. Standard equipment on some trim levels is also revised.

Over at Nissan, the company is finally ready to get the new Ariya on the road. It’s a long awaited model with its release hampered by production delays. But the Ariya represents the next step of Nissan’s road to electrification.

We put the Nissan Ariya vs Ford Mustang Mach-E in a battle of features and capabilities. The goal, to find out which electric crossover comes out on top.

2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E Review: First Drive

ford mustang mach e review specs pricing features videos and more

I drove the 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E for 121 minutes. Apropos of nothing, Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope has a runtime that same length.

I’m not going to tell you the Mach-E is the most important new vehicle Ford is launching this year. It isn’t: on a strictly numbers basis, that title belongs to the redesigned F-150, newly available in hybrid format. I don’t think the Mach-E has built up the most hype of the Blue Oval’s new batch, either. The reborn Bronco has avoided much of the controversy of this all-electric, four-door crossover. Blame the name: Ford must’ve known it’d rile up traditionalists by sticking that iconic horse badge on this EV. But long-term, the Mach-E has a much heavier burden than either of its siblings. Just as Star Wars redefined the Hollywood formula in 1977, the Mach-E needs to convince the public a mainstream legacy automaker can play in the EV realm.

Not wanting to belabor the point any longer, I’ll just say it: the Mach-E is good. It is very good, in fact. It isn’t perfect, but for a snow-filled two hours in the beginning of December, the Mach-E showed the way forward for Ford and the automotive industry at large, with clever technology, plenty of practicality, and—true to its name—even a bit of fun from behind the wheel.

Ford Mustang Mach-E vs Hyundai Ioniq 5: Which EV SUV is Right For You?

ford mustang mach e review specs pricing features videos and more

They’re two of the most visible EVs on the market. But in a battle of the Ford Mustang Mach-E vs Hyundai Ioniq 5, which is better suited to your needs?

We’re big fans of these two mid-sized EVs. The Mustang Mach-E ruffled feathers when it arrived in late 2020, largely due to that name. Whether you deem it worthy of the pony badge or not, the rest of the package delivers, with a roomy cabin, cutting-edge tech, and a range of different battery sizes and motor configurations. It’s even fun to drive—just like a Mustang.

The Hyundai Ioniq 5 doesn’t look like anything else in the Korean brand’s lineup. Heck, it doesn’t look like anything else on the road, either. The retro-futurist shape hides a deceptively large vehicle, one brimming with clever, unique features like a fully-reclining front seat and bi-directional charging. It hasn’t forgotten how to be a modern crossover either, with a smooth ride and the ability to carry five folks in comfort.

Which one better suits your needs? Here we take a closer look at their respective specifications to figure that out.
