Ford Mustang Mach-e EV hits range targets


Ford's all-new Mustang Mach-e EV has received it's official EPA range numbers and the electric pony has met it's early range estimates with the extended-range RWD version capable of 300 miles before needing a recharge (assuming you run it down to zero charge). Even the "base" or standard-range Mach-e will run for 230 miles between charges. (See chart after the jump. AWD versions have lower numbers due to extra weight, etc.) Of course, mileage will vary based on equipment, weather, conditions, and driving style. Range numbers have not been released for the higher-performance Mach-e GT that will be released this summer. Ford's Mach-e range puts the EV crossover into the marketplace as one of the only EVs to hit the magic 300-mile EPA-range number which also includes Tesla's Model Y, a direct competitor. The Mustang Mach-e should be hitting dealer showrooms any day now. Can't wait to see them out "in the wild." For more, check out the brief release, b-roll/interior video after the jump. More to come...
