My wife 100% chose it because of the looks (inside and out). I showed her all the alternatives, all the cons with the Mach E; I made sure she fully understood the choice she was making and she didn’t really care for any of it. She’s completely happy with it and the lackluster charging has had 0 effect on our use of the vehicle. Most of our charging has been at home and that’s fine. Sometimes emotion wins over logic.

I do gotta say, I like that green color

Kyle, i just moved back from the US from the UAE, been overseas for 27 years, and because of your channel i bought an EV6. I live in vegas and commute to Carlsbad monday night and back Thursday afternoon. I charge at home before leaving, drive about 200 miles, charge in Hesperia CA at the Walmart, then charge at work then at Baker on the way home. This last trip i had to charge for 8 mins going and 8 mins coming. Your video on the ev6 and the charging time is what sold me. I love your videos, keep it up...next stop is lucid air pure

I drove a Mach E GT for 14 months. My first 7 months of ownership was with my Mach E in service twice totally 2 months. NO LOANER, NO RENTAL, NO UBER CREDITS. I was forced to pay for my own rental and make payments on my Mach E. Makes it impossible for me to recommend Ford to anyone. Been driving a R1T for the last year and half and always get a loaner/rental no questions asked.

I've now driven a Mach-e and a Model Y, and I found the Mach-e a much more comfortable drive.

I bought a Mach E

I got this over Tesla and other manufacturers because of the 0% interest and heavy incentives.

Styling and build quality was a big part of my decision too. The paint, the ride feel comfort seats everything, Ford nailed it ✅

I will tell you the reason why this is such a good seller. It is because anyone who has driven any car can get in this and drive it. Very small learning curve. It has blinkers where they should be. It’s has light controls where they should be. You can open the glove box without going into the screen. Mirror controls are where they are on every car. etc.

My wife bought a 23.5 Mach-e. She loved it at first sight. It didn't matter that it was an EV. If it was ICE she would have bought it. We love the "connection" to the legacy Mustang "vibe". We also like that Ford has dedicated folks that monitor the social media groups and interacts with the owners. The way she uses her car, charging speed doesn't matter. The Level 2 charger at home gets it done. Ive been a Ford owner since 1972. What I really want is a modern day version of the Thunderbird Super Coupe from the 90's that's an EV.

Editing guys. I'd have watched this but 1 hour and 17 minutes is nuts. You open up the video, catch this montage and are like, "wow, they're setting me up for a marathon on a 3 year old car's minor refresh" and then look at the time and I'm like, "nope!"

Good luck.

Thank you so much for being honest and putting Ford on the hot seat about their deficiencies.

Any time Kyle and Jordan do a video together, let the giggling begin! And I am here for it.

Kyle, the dimple showed up on the 23 (possibly 23.5) model year.

Reason I bought it was because of the style, comfort, name (easiest way to talk my old school hubby into switching to EV) and still way better charging curves than my first 2 EVs (a 2014 smart ED and a 2014 i3 Rex).

I am fine with the charging speeds on my 2021 California route 1 (RWD extended range). At hubby’s age it still takes longer for rest stops than it does for charging.

My Mach E is my first Ford that isn't an old F150. I traded up from a Volt. It's a beautiful car that is a joy to drive, gets good support from Ford and since I only charge at home and don't take it on long trips, does absolutely everything I need it to do. Probably my favorite thing about it is that in a world full of generic same looking grey, maroon or black Teslas, my Grabber Blue GT PE stands out. It gets more attention than any vehicle I've ever owned. And did I mention is a blast to drive?

Thanks for all the casts. Own a 2021 First Edition Grabber Blue. Love it. . It usually charges 120-140 kwh rate on the road trips, 35 to 40 minutes from 10% to 80% but not a problem for me, 95 % of my miles is home charged.
Love the looks, love the interior, love how quiet the car is, and love the savings on charging,
3-4 times cheaper to run on the road than gas. Love to wave when I pass the gas station. Love that no pollution for my grandkids.
Can not wait 10 years till we will all be driving EVs with solid state batteries!
Thanks, for your podcasts

To dent your frunk lid be sure to press it down hard with your palms rather than the proper way of letting the lid drop using gravity.

The 10%-80% charge test is more real world use accurate and relevant. Love the look and the green, it has good range, dual screens, a real steering wheel, etc. I'd take this over a Model Y any day.

I bought a 2022 Mach-E GT back in Q4 2022. I love it but I do have some complaints and it's nice to see some of them addressed on this update. In mine, the suspension is pretty stiff so potholes or speed bumps will send rear-seated passengers airborne. The heater in the winter will eat around 25-30% of my range (around 2.3mi/kwh on the freeway 70mph, down around 1.8mi/kwh if I'm stuck in traffic in the city). During the summer, we'll get around 2.6 and 3.8 respectively. The charging speed is too slow as well, sustaining around 90-100kwh when at a fast charger - it makes me envious of the EV6 GTs that pull up to chargers next to me.

The subwoofer rattle is a thing with the B&O sound system. There's an insulation sheet that makes a buzzing sound.

I chose Mach E, since it the most comfortable car I have ever driven at all speeds. Plus, it is a beautiful looking car - nice curves. It has tons of power and maneuvers really well. I recently took my performance from North Carolina to Manitoba with no issues. It was useful have the NACS adapter. With membership, the Tesla network is cheaper than some of the other networks. Plus, it was the main network available through North Dakota. The charge speed of the Mach E is much better than many other EVs - certainly compared to my Bolt and previous Leaf it is like night and day! I usually take half hour anyway when I stop - lol:). We have not seen the long term effect of higher rates of charging yet. It is conceivable that charging at 250 kw as opposed to 150 kw may lead to faster battery degradation for what I perceive as an insignificant gain of time - time will tell. If I ever upgrade it would be another performance mach e - Ford nailed it!
