ice-capades Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 (edited) Here's an actual Window Sticker that was just released for a 2021 Mustang Mach-E Premium AWD w/88KWH Extended Battery 3FMTK3SU1MMA01469_WS.pdf Edited November 23, 2020 by ice-capades Added EPA Info 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvrsvt Posted November 23, 2020 Author Share Posted November 23, 2020 That’s is what I get about with my 2013 SHO-I’d prob do even better with a MME because I do more stop and go driving going to work, which is about 15 miles away.

I've been saying for months that for whatever reason Mach E just doesn't photograph well. It looks much better in person, especially in Rapid Red. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've especially anxious on seeing it when it arrives based on your credibility! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bzcat Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Saw one over the weekend near my house. I live down the street from Motortrend office so I often see the staff and writers there driving vehicles that are still under media embargo. I think MACH E are now with the press for first drive impressions so we should see the articles hit social media pretty soon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dean, maybe you can shed some light on this. Do dealers have to sign up to sell the Mach-E? Or be Mach-E certified? I was looking at the Mach-E webpage and was asked to enter my zip code. When I did, my local dealer wasn't included in the selection of dealers selling the Mach-E. The nearest Mach-E dealer is 25 miles away. I have no intention of buying one, I'm looking at a Bronco, but was curious as to why some dealers are carrying the Mach-E, and others apparently aren't (at least initially).

FordBuyer Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Looks like Ford has a real winner here and now has the ability to do over the air updates just like Tesla. Combine this with the Bronco and it really feels like Ford is going places finally. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw it last year at LA Auto Show so it's not the first time I've seen it up close. But I agree with fuzzy that it looks better in person. The front looks a bit bulky on photos but it doesn't look like that in person, mostly due to the angle of viewing. A lot of PR photos are taken at the grille/wheel level for maximum effect but in person, you are almost always looking down at the car when standing next to it. My favorite view is the rear 3/4 look... the car looks muscular and purposeful with good design aesthetic. nice fender bulge and stance. And I love the fastback look on almost any car... the most stylish shape for a vehicle. Someone is going to come out with a lowering kit and it will transform the look of the car some more. Aside from the ground clearance, the car looks very much like a hatchback and not much of a SUV. Edited November 24, 2020 by bzcat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have 1 BEV enrolled and available in the Ford Courtesy Transportation Program, must have a minimum of two Level 2 (240V) chargers available, sales & service personnel required to be certified in select BEV courses (techs must be certified in high voltage systems and high voltage battery repair) and a list of required shop equipment (includes BEV high voltage battery module balancing charger, BEV hoist table, FHEV high voltage battery rescue charger, a smoke machine for leak testing battery packs & a variety of other tools for servicing all EVs (BEV, PHEV & hybrid). We passed at this time as well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FR739 Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 As much as I dislike some of the business decisions Ford made surrounding this SUV, I am hoping beyond hope that it obliterates Tesla in terms of sales and profit. It certainly has a ton going for it. It’s rather attractive, it’s being built by an established company that knows what they’re doing, it’s not built in a tent, etc. As a result the quality should be leaps and buds above Tesla although so is a 1982 Chevette. Either way, it has all the ingredients to be a runaway success and not a runaway nightmare like Teslas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to see Ford, GM, and Tesla obliterate the foreign competition, especially the Japanese automakers.

There's a good chance that will happen as the automotive industry transitions to 100% electric vehicles. Tesla continues be the dominant player, GM is now "all-in" with BEV, and Ford shows signs of heading in that direction too. Among the Japanese automakers, Toyota is fixated on hybrids and fool cells, Honda is partnering with GM on BEV development, Nissan & Mitsubishi lost their first mover advantage with BEV, Mazda & Subaru haven't announced much in the way of specific BEV models for the U.S. market.

I want to see Ford, GM, and Tesla obliterate the foreign competition, especially the Japanese automakers. I never said I hated Tesla. I do hate Musk though. He’s a complete fraud who will say anything to peddle his garbage. I just view Tesla for what it is and their products for what they are. As such, it’s very clear that the Mach E is leaps and bounds ahead of Tesla in terms of quality and you can be darn sure Ford will actually make money on them. I think the Mach E will be a bigger hit than the Bronco. Sure the Bronco will have many more sales, but I see the Mach E being the new Flex in terms of conquest sales and doing more for the brand long term than the Bronco. Unless the Mach E is the next Pinto, I really don’t see how it can fail. And remember, I’m not a fan of electric cars. But I see the merits.
