2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E Review - Does Ford's Electric Car Impress You?
Top 10 Coolest Features Of Ford's Take At An All-Electric Crossover

The Ford Mustang has gone electric! The 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E is an all-electric crossover, offering options with RWD or AWD, and two battery pack options. This video will focus on the 10 best features of the Mach-E, including exterior features, a large central touchscreen, unique door handles & locks, artificial sounds, and a frunk filled with chicken wings.

Ford's Press Release:
"For the first time in 55 years, Ford is expanding the Mustang family, bringing the famous pony into the electric age with Mustang Mach-E, an all-new, all-electric SUV born of the same all-American ideals that inspired the best-selling sports coupe in the world.

When it arrives in late 2020, Mustang Mach-E will be available with standard and extended-range battery options with either rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive powered by permanent magnet motors. Equipped with an extended-range battery and rear-wheel drive, Mach-E has a targeted EPA-estimated range of at least 300 miles.1 In extended-range all-wheel-drive configurations, Mach-E is targeting 332 horsepower and 417 lb.-ft. of torque2 – with the standard all-wheel-drive variation targeting quicker times to 60 mph than the base Porsche Macan series.3

Ford also will offer two special performance versions. The GT is targeting 0-60 mph in under 4 seconds, making it faster off the line than a Porsche Macan Turbo. The GT Performance Edition, meanwhile, is targeting a comparable 0-60 mph in the mid-3-second range to a Porsche 911 GTS. Both GT configurations are targeting an estimated 342 kW (459 horsepower) and 830 Nm (612 lb.-ft.) of torque.

Mustang Mach-E will be available in both standard-range (75.7 kWh lithium-ion battery) and extended-range (98.8 kWh battery), which has a targeted EPA-estimated range of at least 300 miles in rear-wheel-drive configuration.1 These advanced batteries feature 288 lithium-ion cells in the standard-range version and 376 lithium-ion cells in the extended-range. Designed for ease of manufacturing, the battery is located on the floor between the vehicle’s two axles – and tested at temperatures as extreme as minus 40 degrees Fahrenheit. The batteries are secured inside a waterproof battery case surrounded by crash-absorption protection. They are liquid-cooled to optimize performance in extreme weather and to improve charging times.

As electric vehicle owners do 80 percent of their charging at home, Ford offers a Ford Connected Charging station that can add an estimated average range of 32 miles per charging hour on a 240V outlet, based on extended-range, rear-wheel-drive configuration.7 The Ford mobile charger, included with the vehicle, can add an estimated average range of 22 miles per charging hour on a 240V outlet,7 the same used for a conventional oven. Ford is teaming up with Amazon Home to facilitate easy customer home installation by a licensed electrician."

NEW VIDEO EVERY WEDNESDAY!

**Hello all!** First disclaimer: when the rear door bumps out, it can't go back in unless it is moved. But as you can see at 5:30 in the video, if you do move it out of that bumped position, it can now go back to closing. To me, this leaves the possibility of pinched fingers. Door handles eliminate that, which IMO is worth the tiny sacrifice in drag. Why do the front doors get handles but the rears don't, if handles aren't useful? Your opinion may differ! That's fine too! Next week I'll have a comparison of this Mach-E vs my Model 3, and include differences vs Model Y, and that will also include a driving portion of the Mach-E. Happy New Year everyone!

You really sold that spare tire. It genuinely looked for a second as though you really thought it would be there. Those acting classes must be paying off.

Filming Style Feedback: Need more whiteboard

"Fill this up with a thousand chicken wings"
I'm sold.
Tesla can only hold 900 chicken wings in their frunk.

This is a large hatchback.. I don't care what they call it.

[BenIntentional]

"It's not an SUV." Facts. Coincidentally, it's not a Mustang either.

[starshipdriver]

I like that you can do car reviews in a closed garage without the risk of dying.

[MMMMM...dumber]

The best thing i learned in this video

-40C° = -40F°

[wii]

My guess on why they made it sound like a combustion engine is the same reason car companies make CVTs pretend to shift.

[xavierpaige]

micro transactions to buy different car sound packs. mark my words its coming.

[johnnywayne]

I put a Mustang badge on my Taurus today...it's just as valid.

Hey, how cool, a ford keypad. "Hello, this is the Lockpicking lawyer, and what I have for you today is a 2021 ford mach-e"

[SarahnTuned]

Haha, the fact you asked if it was ok not using a tripod this time makes it totally acceptable. 👍🏻

5:30 there is a kick stand that prevents your hand from being smashed. You have to move open the door for that kick stand to retract.

[LordLoMR]

17:38, I thought for sure it was gonna hit the ceiling. Lol

[JJ-yu]

I actually really like this video format, Jason. I think on-the-fly videos are always a welcome addition to the usual "higher production" videos that you and others create. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and happy new year!

Cooler interior sound option: the coconut trot from Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

[StewartMarkley]

I really like the video in the garage. Now let's have a driving test video.

[BBROPHOTO]

You did great on this :) Glad you managed to get a video out - it’s always appreciated. Like the synthetic sounds in the car, you cannot complain when content is free!

[troxmo]

Love the direct filming & talking style, much time saved for you and it really seams you even can focus more on your stream of thought instead of caring about correctly setting up camera angles.
