There’s no denying the exhilaration that emanates from Ford’s pony car, the ever-famous Mustang. One ride in this adrenaline-infused performance car, and you’re struck by a feeling of elation that can’t be replicated. Up until last year, this type of ride was only possible in the iconic sports car, but with the debut of the Mustang Mach-E, drivers are now able to harness this power in an all-electric SUV. Whether you’re ultra-familiar with the Mach-E or your curiosity is piqued, there’s a lot to learn about this electric pony. So, let’s get to know more about the 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E, from its obvious presence to all the secrets that hide within its chiseled physique.
#1 – Mustang Vibes Course Through It
When a lot of drivers think about electric vehicles, they tend to envision them puttering along the road, hardly able to reach highway speeds, but that’s not the case… not at all, especially in the Mach-E. Ford armed this fierce machine with the spirit of a Mustang, complete with all the power, acceleration, and excitement that you can expect to experience in its legendary pony car. Able to shoot from 0-60 mph in a cool 3.5 second when you opt for the GT Performance Edition, the Mustang Mach-E doesn’t just share a name with an icon; it performs like one too.
You’ll also find that its design screams Mustang through and through, with a sleekness and intimidation that’s hard to ignore. From its stylish interior with perforated leather appointments and more luxurious elements available to its exterior, which takes the Mustang’s legendary design and makes it its own. There is simply no denying the Mach-E’s roots. Sporty, aggressive, and sleek, the Mach-E showcases style and performance that can’t be found elsewhere. Plus, with its namesake being one of the greatest cars of all time, there’s no going wrong with the 2022 Mustang Mach-E.
#2 – Hands-Free Driving is Here
Not having to stress about your drive is something that every driver wishes for, and with Ford’s BlueCruise technology, now offered in the 2022 Mustang Mach-E, you’re able to experience that. Utilizing over 130,000 miles of pre-mapped roadways across North America, the 2022 Mach-E takes a hands-free approach to driving, braking, steering, and handling your vehicle for you. Staying safe is the name of the game, especially when you’re traveling, which is why the BlueCruise feature also uses an infrared front-facing camera to monitor your attention to the road, alerting you if your gaze diverts from the journey ahead.
Wouldn’t it be nice to enjoy the ride a bit more, even if you’re just heading into the office? In the 2022 Mach-E, you’re able to do just that with this available feature. Plus, with added safety measures in place, you’ll be able to enjoy a better, more focused, and above all else, safer ride for you and everyone traveling around you. If you’re ready for the Mach-E to take charge of your journey, then BlueCruise is a must for your travels.
#3 – Giving Tesla a Run for Its Money
Many drivers think that Tesla is the gold standard when it comes to electric vehicles, but it’s time to let that notion go and accept the facts. Other vehicles are catching up to this pioneer in the industry, and some are even surpassing it, including the Mustang Mach-E. Depending on the battery and powertrain, the Mach-E effortlessly surpasses one of Tesla’s most beloved offerings, the Model 3, when it comes to range. Ford’s 91-kWh extended-range battery allows the rear-wheel drive Mach-E to travel up to 305 miles on a single charge. The equivalent rear-wheel drive Tesla Model 3 is only estimated to travel up to 272 miles on a charge.
Comparing the Mach-E to the Tesla Model Y, you’ll find that the Mach-E comes in at a much more affordable price point. You can expect to pay upwards of over $55K for the Model Y, whereas the Mach-E is much more reasonable, with its base prices starting at just over $40K. From range to performance, design to capabilities, the Mustang Mach-E is showing the world that it’s more than a worthy competitor for powerhouse brands like Tesla. In an industry that’s shifting more toward electric vehicles, it’s nice to know that you’re able to find a vehicle that offers you more for less in the form of the 2022 Mach-E.
#4 – Sharing a Battery with the F-150 Lightning
The 2022 Mach-E has something in common with another one of its Ford siblings, the F-150 Lightning, both of which have the same battery. Manufactured by LG Chem, the same supplier for rivals, like the Chevy Bolt EV, the Volkswagen ID.4, and others, the Mach-E’s battery pack is situated conveniently under the floor of the vehicle. It consists of pouch cells that are enclosed in an aluminum-plastic casing, as opposed to a metal casing, allowing the battery to be lighter overall. There are many benefits to choosing pouch cell lithium batteries, including increased vehicle performance, allowing the Mach-E to provide the best ride possible, designed for the thrill of the drive.
#5 – Sporting Sleek Style
If there’s one thing you can depend on without a shadow of a doubt, it’s that the 2022 Mach-E is designed to impress. Although it was just introduced for the 2021 model year, you can rest assured that it’s only getting better.
New for 2022, the Mustang Mach-E will showcase some new styles, most notably its Ice White Appearance Package. With its Star White exterior, Oxford White 19-inch wheels, white badging, and more, if you’re looking to turn heads, you’ll be able to do just that with the Ice White package. Its beauty extends far beyond the initial glance, and as you admire its interior, you’ll notice its gloss white dashboard insert, Oxford White steering wheel with unique badging, and other elegant features. If you’re looking to travel in ultimate style, there’s nothing quite like the Ice White Mach-E.
You’ll also be able to enjoy new perks in the California Route 1 model, which is now offered with more sophisticated elements, like heated front seats and a heated steering wheel, as well as all-wheel drive capabilities. Whether you’re looking for modern simplicity or serious style, the 2022 Mach-E proves that there’s a model available for virtually any driver imaginable.
