Ford has released the EPA numbers for the Mustang Mach-e GT and GT Performance Pack and they're better than expected by as much as 15 miles per charge. The Mach-e GT has a final EPA-estimated range of 270 miles per charge while the GT Performance Pack accomplishes the same feat in 260 miles (probably due to larger tires, etc,). While Ford originally estimated deliveries to begin late summer, now orders will be accepted in the fall. The delat is probably due to the fact that they can't complete the orders they have due to demand and parts issues. Now the Mustang Mach-e with its 480 hp and 634 lb.-ft of torque/860 Nm1 and a 0-60 mph time of 3.5 seconds can compete openly with the faster Teslas. Check with your dealer and get in the queue.
