Yes. I one hundred percent drive more aggressively with my EV. Haha. I love all cars but I’ve never had a gas car that made me want to punch it at every single light. Anyone that says EVs aren’t any fun has never driven one. It feels like magic when your speed changes but the sound doesn’t.

Ordered a Mach E GT and was on the forums every single day, while waiting on my order I found out about the GV70 and fell in love with it. Still just as excited to see Mach E GT reviews as I was before I ever found my GV70. Super excited Ford is taking on this segment vs Tesla Model Y since no one else is doing it. I loved the Mach E (rented one on Turo for a day) compared to a Model Y, just seemed so much more like a 'real' car. I hate to say it that way, but back to back driving with a Model Y kind of showed how poorly they're put together. Not to beat a dead horse on the Tesla quality discussion. The Mach E also feels a lot like a car and not an SUV or CUV. Coming from only having cars in the past and not SUV's I really liked that part of it.
The GV70 is phenomenal! It's what I was going to get, but they didn't come in soon enough. I've driven both engines since they've been in dealerships, and both are great! If you want an EV though, there will be an eGV70 coming, perhaps next year. It'll be all the same looks and goodies of the gas but a full EV battery, of course. That might be my next car now.
Well the MachE has less ground clearance than most sedans lol. MachE is very nice but it doesn't nail the EV experience like Tesla does. At the current prices, the MachE is a no brainer unless the Model Y received the tax credit AND lowers back down in price.
Doug videos suggested you guys and you Canadians are funny, good drivers and show different stuff that I love which Doug doesn't. Congratulations on making this channel great!!!
I've talked to enough Tesla drivers to know how bad their customer service is that I won't consider one. I test drove a Mach E about 6 months ago but didn't like the price. Now they're all backordered regardless. With how big the batteries are, I think the charging infrastructure is a moot point. At 260miles of range, you cover 99% of the daily commuters and can charge at home. The rare road trip a couple times a year shouldn't be a deciding factor when it will almost never come up.
I love the natural sound of EVs, I'm over the ICE noise. I'm 6'2 and felt the Mach E was cramped compared to the Y, got the Y in the end .......charging network is better and autopilot is better ....also larger.......
I’m 6’-6” and rear legroom is a big requirement for me. Test drove a MYP and was amazed at the amount of rear legroom. Is the Mach-E significantly less than the MY?
Who the fuck actually says shit like this that you did in the first part. That’s the weirdest shit I heard yet in reference to an EV to gasoline powered anything ..
@@1Raunchy huh? EV motors do make noise, it's just nowhere near as obnoxiously loud as some ICEs. I too prefer the natural noise that an EV makes over the silly sounds that automakers think their customers need to have piped through the speakers.
@@1Raunchy🤔 People have these things called ears - two of them actually. and people buy sports cars and modify the mufflers so they sounds loud to be cool and show others they are cool. It's one thing to have a loud car and cart it to a track where other people have their loud cars that's a smart thing to do. It's another thing to rip up and down Toronto streets at 12am going bruuuuuuuuppppppp because they just have to show how cool they are. So I like the sound of an EV - it's sounds futuristic - that's the sounds sci-fi space ships have. And as more EVs are on the road there will be less noise in an already noise dense urban areas.

So awesome to see all the success that has come your way and to be watching you guys kill it video after video. Keep up the great reviews.
I’ve owned my Model Y Performance for 3 months now and so far I haven’t gotten bored of driving it quickly. It’s effortless to drive quicker than literally 99% of traffic, so you do feel a little held back by other vehicles usually.
This is kinda bitter sweet..i mean the technology is amazing and i love how we are actually living in the beginning stages of the jetson future we have all imagined it being but also the gas car will be phased out and nothing can replace them...im hoping alternative clean-burning fuels are being developed for mass use and hopefully they are renewable
I'm hoping some manufacture figures out how to add character to these electrics at least. Performance is great and all, but after a while your car is just defined by the surge of torque. That character of different engines, like sound, how it revs, ect is going away.
Porsche is developing a type of gasoline that will actually make LESS emissions than an electric car. Who knows if it’ll be for mass use or how much range it can give you compared to regular gas or if it performs as well in colder climates tho. We’ve already started out w/ E85 becoming more common but it’s not great when there’s cold weather.
Your hopes have already been heard, Porsche and Siemens are currently building a windpark-factory in Chile for blue eFuels made of hydrogen. And Deutz already has developed an internal combustion engine that runs with liquid hydrogen and produces 200kW. They´re longtime testing the engine right now as we speak. 👍
You are the most entertaining and informative car reviewer duo on TH-cam. I immensely enjoy your videos. Please try to include 0-40mph and 40-80mph times in seconds, as the first one is city off the line speeds, and the other is the passing speeds on highways
I don’t need no stinkin’ burnouts or donuts, and now Ford has cut the deal with Tesla to use their 10,000+ Supercharges! I sat in a model Y with white interior, and then I sat in the Mach e, and the Ford made the Tesla seem like I was sitting in a white room with no furniture.
You two are really the best reviewers out here. Yuri, buddy, the hair! So what is it with manufacturers that they have to have the biggest possible home computer mega screen possible placed in these cars? I'm 6'4 and test drove a Mustang and declined due to the same knee clearance reason. I have a Clarity and find the 'floating' bridge to be a little uncomfortable as well, but have managed to work around it successfully. Having my knee cap buried in the corner of a laptop when I drive will never do!
From my understanding, you need a subscription to Blue Cruise and Ford delayed the "activation" of the system until early 2022. I just had the Mach-E California Route 1 on demo the other week (review coming soon ;)) and I tried Blue Cruise on Hwy 1 here in Vancouver and had the same issue you had. It was just a normal lane centering not hands-free driving. Btw, GM's Super Cruise works very well on pre-mapped highways. Tried it on the Escalade Diesel that I had on demo.
I can't figure out why people call this a sports car when it is a massive SUV and can not even run more than a few consecutive launches without getting a slower time.
Even it's best times are 100 mph trap..... Base model model 3 traps 106. I don't get the comparison. Hell a regular model y long range traps 112+ and the performance smashes this in the quarter by about a second and 15+ mph.
@@IReahpZz Exactly, The model 3 and Y, especially the performance one and designed and engineered much better because they can actually handle a hard track drive without any issues.
@@vroooom Got no problem putting that boat in its place. Car can't even run full power on track. Unbridled extend runs a 13.4 and basically makes 300 hp and less after 60. Car isn't doing anything to a y perf on track. But hey keep telling yourself that. Should kept your stinger 😉
you guys should look into software more when it comes to electric cars and other modern cars.. dont get me wrong the video is good, it's just that software has been and will be a more deciding factor for most people as we move forward to electrification. an example of this that I can think of is autonomous Driving features and single motor mode, that can be changed with a software.
@@carssucksince1800s yes it can. Same as the regular Mach-e. They did a more extensive look at the software in the regular Mach-e video. This is essentially the same generation, even though it's a year later. So same everything as the base model, this is just a performance trim.
I beat the everliving crap out of my Model Y Performance. I'm MUCH nicer to my STI. Its just so easy to beat on an electric car, plus its so much harder to do damage to it. Full throttle from every stop light.
@@TheStraightPipes Can't speak for Josh, but every single red light gets a launch from me in my M3P. Assuming I'm at the front and it's safe to proceed rapidly, obviously!
13:50 You're doing it wrong. The icon you say "apparently it means bluecruise, I guess" the icon actually shows hands on wheels, so it's quite the opposite. In order to activate the full hands free BlueCruise you need to keep hands on wheels until hands free blue theme takes over the dashboard just like when you showed at 12:30. If you move hands off the wheel before that it will never activate handsfree.
@@TheStraightPipes so you thing a system that you can take the hands off the wheels before the hands free system is engaged is better? Doesn't make sense. I think the flaw is that the signs in the dashboard are not clear enough. Not intuitive.
I'd definitely go with the Model Y as well. Ford has done a pretty good job with the Mach-E, but it still has many shortcomings. My primary issue with the Mach-E is its charging curve.... It's bad. Really bad. It's advertised as peaking at 150kW, which is true, but that peak only happens for a very short duration until it throttles down to 100kW. What's worse is that it throttles to just 11kW once it hits 80% SoC. That can be a real issue if one needs let's say a 90% SoC in order to reach their destination. Ford said they will release software updates to fix the charging curve. Even if they do, the MY still peaks at 250kW, so its still a better car for road trips.
How many times do you need to go over 80%? I owned mine for 6 months, had it over 80% twice. Once when I drove from San Diego to Los Angeles (and had about 40% remaining when I got there) and once when I sold it... yesterday...so the buyer felt comfy driving to North LA. Daily driving is not 200 miles a day.
As always, love the electric car reviews! However, nothing will ever beat the Hyundai Ioniq electric vs hybrid long range test a few years back. Still one of my favorite videos!
I drove a Tesla for a while. I would be in chill only with other passengers when doing Lyft. I only went full out when by myself or with friends n family.
Ford missed a huge opportunity by not calling it the Model E. Would’ve been great publicity since that’s what Tesla wanted to call the Model 3 (but Ford owned the E name). Would’ve also not pissed off car guys by stealing the Mustang name, and it could’ve signified a new era or gone back to Ford’s roots.
You do realise that this entire car has Mustang styling cues and proportions all over? In no universe would this exact car not be a Mustang model, it would have to look entirely different. And again Ford does not care what traditional Mustang fans think because vast majority we’re never buying this car no matter what.
@@Orielparadise Oh wow, I had no idea the “Mustang Mach E” had mustang styling cues. Thanks, Captain Obvious! You managed to completely miss the point. Mustang has been a 2 door coupe since its inception. The F-150 Lightning has been a 2 door performance truck since it’s inception. The Ford Super Duty lineup has always been a truck, and so on. Ford has made a lot of mistakes with the mustang over the years, but it has never been a four door SUV. That’s like bringing the Fusion back and calling it an F-150 variant. This was a marketing move to build sales against Tesla and other upcoming electric rivals. Now take your trash opinion elsewhere and waste someone else’s time.
@@jman6970 Its pretty simple, this thing is being sold all over the world and the Mustang is one of the most iconic cars ever. Its for marketing, people like Mustangs but don't want to have to deal with the running costs of a V8 since fuel prices in EU are stupid. Currently £1.40 a litre in the UK, yes a litre! That works out to around $7 a gallon US. Run a V8 for a while and you'll go bankrupt.
@@Lukaz0r Are you challenged, or can you just not read? Never once were engines brought up at any point in previous comments. That is not the point of what was said, at all. Try reading this extra slowly: *The Ford Mustang is a pony car. That has never changed. A pony car, by definition, is a 2 door low-slung highly stylized coupe or convertible with a long hood and short deck.* A four-door crossover SUV (The Mach E) with the Mustang name slapped on in the name of sales is a slap to the face of nearly 60 years of heritage. The issue is the body style, not the power plant.
I'd argue that not many guys on this planet are as passionate about Mustangs as myself, and the fact is Ford is a business, and if they want to continue to be profitable in the future they had to use the asset that is the Mustang name for electrification. It will help sales and will secure the Mustang platform for years to come. If this move pissed off Mustang faithfuls they need step back and try to understand where this industry is headed.
Love the interior except for the screen, yes, its dangerous. It doesn't need to be that big. The climate controls could easily have been replaced by a regular climate panel. Also, the Tesla stalk shift is so much better. I hate rotary shifters, its not logical. You pull back or down doe drive and push forward/up for reverse. Its pretty simple.
Thank Tesla for that, the elitest Teslarati seem to think if you don't have an overlarged center screen you cannot be considered a "real" electric car competitor. I would love to see a completely analog electric car dash imho. there would be a market for it imho.
I actually like the long screens better than the wide screens. Maybe I’m weird but I didn’t like the Tesla Y’s seemingly smaller more distant wife/horizontal screen as much as I like the long ones. They should’ve build it into the console lile Tesla does & not like sticking out like that like the ones in the Tesla 3’s…
Ill take the rotary shifter. And I like how it will spin forever, its so easy to find the gears. And it auto parks when you turn the car off. All good stuff.
I drove one for 20 minutes and didn't notice the screen hitting me in the knee. I'm big and I like a close driving position, so I opten hate problems with my knees not fitting in specific cars. I'll have to go sit in one again and pay closer attention to that.
Nice review! I like the looks but wish there was a shade for the glass top. Good to know about the screen hitting knees. Also $50k would be a fair price for this car.
Ah yes, all of the things we love about the mustang- a two door V8 RWD muscle car with a legendary exhaust note. Oh wait... they just slapped a badge and some lights on an electric SUV? Crazy.
I mean several reviewers have praised the handling "for an suv" and its definitely powerful/fast enough, it absolutely is worth the name just no exhaust note bc well electric, obviously not exactly the same, they just wanted it to be cool
@The Pug That Jumped Over The Moon EXACTLY it’s an suv. Electric is not the problem but the fact that they’ve jumped on the suv bandwagon and tried to make a Tesla clone is just sad. It may be a cool car but why did they have to sully the mustang name🙁. The first electric mustang should’ve been a mustang not a Tesla suv.
@@snapchord honestly don't think they really made it like a tesla at all, don't think they could've done that much better with an suv and a ton of people would be mad at a electric mustang too bc thats not the heritage of the car, they honestly were either gonna upset no one and make a car no one cared about really or do something bold and honestly I think its pretty good just expensive
5:03 Black panels at the top and bottom to make it look not-SUV which does trick your eye ONLY WORKS on light body colors which is why the press/review cars are all white and/or this yellorange color....!
Model 3 Performance definitely makes it easy to drive like a maniac. Track mode let's you set up for burnouts, donuts, drifting... Ford can do the same via software update if they choose to.
@@vroooom Mustang has no top end and gets walked by any 300 hp car On the highway. Car traps 100 mph in the quarter. Gets annihilated by any Tesla that has ever been released on the highway as well. Very disappointed in the Mach e gt real world performance figures coming from a Tesla owner. Stinger with just a tune would smash the gt from a stop. Waiting on the ev6 gt to consider an suv.
9:35 precisely one if the huge selling points for me. Keep your noise ans cop attention grabbing. I'll take the actual performance. Now if it could actually do a decent 1/4 mile.
Model 3 Performance owner, I absolutely drive it crazier than any ICE vehicle… that’s what makes electric stealth worth it. I canyon carved at “illegal” speeds then snuck past a hidden speed trap at the end with regen braking… the cop pulled the loud full exhaust STI trying its best to keep up that they heard from miles away… plus M3P “Track Mode” donuts and burnouts in parking lots where you only hear tires is disconcerting AF for people watching. The instant speed and stealth antics is the MAIN attraction for electric performance - Ford needs to make a Track Mode like the the M3P
Yes I drive it faster. Nobody complains about the exhaust sound. Its just so easy and doesn't feel like its going to break the car. Its much cheaper vs gas at full throttle. Plus I know I am regenerating some of that energy when I let off the throttle.
He actually paid $10 for a 17% increase. That's horrendous, and will only get worse as gas/petro vehicles are removed from roads. A 260 mile range may not be terrible for everyday driving, but it severely limits cross country road trips. Everyone loves the idea of a green future, but nobody considers how to build and power an energy grid capable of charging hundreds of millions of these vehicles. When the 10 year agenda includes limiting private ownership of large purchases and discouraging travel, I guess 260 mile ranges should be the least of our worries.

You two are really the best reviewers out here. Yuri, buddy, the hair! So what is it with manufacturers that they have to have the biggest possible home computer mega screen possible placed in these cars? I'm 6'4 and test drove a Mustang and declined due to the same knee clearance reason. I have a Clarity and find the 'floating' bridge to be a little uncomfortable as well, but have managed to work around it successfully. Having my knee cap buried in the corner of a laptop when I drive will never do!
They're just cargo culting Tesla. Horrible trend, give us buttons.
Savagegeese gives me feeling of dispair. You two make me feel energetic and want to live again.
yea geeseman is a debby downer
Savage is so depressing. It’s almost comical.
Yuri channeling his inner Soundcloud rapper for this one.
From my understanding, you need a subscription to Blue Cruise and Ford delayed the "activation" of the system until early 2022. I just had the Mach-E California Route 1 on demo the other week (review coming soon ;)) and I tried Blue Cruise on Hwy 1 here in Vancouver and had the same issue you had. It was just a normal lane centering not hands-free driving.
Btw, GM's Super Cruise works very well on pre-mapped highways. Tried it on the Escalade Diesel that I had on demo.
Thank god the Subscription break is back at the end! Love that clip
I can't figure out why people call this a sports car when it is a massive SUV and can not even run more than a few consecutive launches without getting a slower time.
Even it's best times are 100 mph trap..... Base model model 3 traps 106. I don't get the comparison. Hell a regular model y long range traps 112+ and the performance smashes this in the quarter by about a second and 15+ mph.
@@IReahpZz Exactly, The model 3 and Y, especially the performance one and designed and engineered much better because they can actually handle a hard track drive without any issues.
@@Alex.AL_26 except the Model 3/Y are terrible track vehicles.
@@vroooom Got no problem putting that boat in its place. Car can't even run full power on track. Unbridled extend runs a 13.4 and basically makes 300 hp and less after 60. Car isn't doing anything to a y perf on track. But hey keep telling yourself that. Should kept your stinger 😉
@@IReahpZz check out the link I posted…was your previous car a Prius? 😂
Stinger was an excellent car but the Mach E is tons more fun!
you guys should look into software more when it comes to electric cars and other modern cars.. dont get me wrong the video is good, it's just that software has been and will be a more deciding factor for most people as we move forward to electrification.
an example of this that I can think of is autonomous Driving features and single motor mode, that can be changed with a software.
Watch our 3 mach e videos. And no you can't go into single motor mode without some hacker figuring something out down the line. Ford doesn't let you
@@TheStraightPipes What about the keys for the car? Like can it use a phone as a key or not?
@@carssucksince1800s yes it can. Same as the regular Mach-e. They did a more extensive look at the software in the regular Mach-e video. This is essentially the same generation, even though it's a year later. So same everything as the base model, this is just a performance trim.
I beat the everliving crap out of my Model Y Performance. I'm MUCH nicer to my STI. Its just so easy to beat on an electric car, plus its so much harder to do damage to it. Full throttle from every stop light.
Do you get bored of flooring it all the time though?
@@TheStraightPipes Can't speak for Josh, but every single red light gets a launch from me in my M3P. Assuming I'm at the front and it's safe to proceed rapidly, obviously!
Those 3 "not cars" that you've reviewed are the best reviews. Solid!
That graphic was kind of mind blowing lol
Thanks
13:50 You're doing it wrong. The icon you say "apparently it means bluecruise, I guess" the icon actually shows hands on wheels, so it's quite the opposite. In order to activate the full hands free BlueCruise you need to keep hands on wheels until hands free blue theme takes over the dashboard just like when you showed at 12:30. If you move hands off the wheel before that it will never activate handsfree.
Sounds like a bad system to me
@@TheStraightPipes so you thing a system that you can take the hands off the wheels before the hands free system is engaged is better? Doesn't make sense. I think the flaw is that the signs in the dashboard are not clear enough. Not intuitive.
Great review as always! Yuri, did you lose a bet? Hahahaha!!!!
One of the, if not, the best Mach-e GT (honest) reviews!!
I'd definitely go with the Model Y as well. Ford has done a pretty good job with the Mach-E, but it still has many shortcomings. My primary issue with the Mach-E is its charging curve.... It's bad. Really bad. It's advertised as peaking at 150kW, which is true, but that peak only happens for a very short duration until it throttles down to 100kW. What's worse is that it throttles to just 11kW once it hits 80% SoC. That can be a real issue if one needs let's say a 90% SoC in order to reach their destination. Ford said they will release software updates to fix the charging curve. Even if they do, the MY still peaks at 250kW, so its still a better car for road trips.
Yup watch our Mach E first edition review for charging rant
They fixed it .... 😊
How many times do you need to go over 80%? I owned mine for 6 months, had it over 80% twice. Once when I drove from San Diego to Los Angeles (and had about 40% remaining when I got there) and once when I sold it... yesterday...so the buyer felt comfy driving to North LA. Daily driving is not 200 miles a day.
@@mgmken why did you sell it already
Performance Tesla Model Y owner here...yes, I drive my Y like I stole it. Except for when it is driving me on FSD Beta.
Love the old out tro!
This is my favorite EV so far
That grille makes the car look so much better than the other Mache-E’s 👍
No one else has any problems with the knee and screen. I'm 185cm and have zero issues with it.
Torso to leg ratio
Long hold traction control button to fully turn it off
As always, love the electric car reviews! However, nothing will ever beat the Hyundai Ioniq electric vs hybrid long range test a few years back. Still one of my favorite videos!
I whip my Tesla Model 3 Performance like a mule. After 20 years of BMWs and Porshe's ... I just nail it all the time.
I drove a Tesla for a while. I would be in chill only with other passengers when doing Lyft. I only went full out when by myself or with friends n family.
Excellent review guys. Much appreciated.
You know the video is awesome when you hear a joke in the beginning 0:21
good way to start my Friday 💪
We also get the GT Performance in the US. Doug mentioned it.
Yes I said that. We don't get the GT
Ford missed a huge opportunity by not calling it the Model E. Would’ve been great publicity since that’s what Tesla wanted to call the Model 3 (but Ford owned the E name). Would’ve also not pissed off car guys by stealing the Mustang name, and it could’ve signified a new era or gone back to Ford’s roots.
You do realise that this entire car has Mustang styling cues and proportions all over? In no universe would this exact car not be a Mustang model, it would have to look entirely different.
And again Ford does not care what traditional Mustang fans think because vast majority we’re never buying this car no matter what.
@@Orielparadise Oh wow, I had no idea the “Mustang Mach E” had mustang styling cues. Thanks, Captain Obvious!
You managed to completely miss the point. Mustang has been a 2 door coupe since its inception. The F-150 Lightning has been a 2 door performance truck since it’s inception. The Ford Super Duty lineup has always been a truck, and so on.
Ford has made a lot of mistakes with the mustang over the years, but it has never been a four door SUV. That’s like bringing the Fusion back and calling it an F-150 variant.
This was a marketing move to build sales against Tesla and other upcoming electric rivals. Now take your trash opinion elsewhere and waste someone else’s time.
@@jman6970 Its pretty simple, this thing is being sold all over the world and the Mustang is one of the most iconic cars ever. Its for marketing, people like Mustangs but don't want to have to deal with the running costs of a V8 since fuel prices in EU are stupid. Currently £1.40 a litre in the UK, yes a litre! That works out to around $7 a gallon US. Run a V8 for a while and you'll go bankrupt.
@@Lukaz0r Are you challenged, or can you just not read?
Never once were engines brought up at any point in previous comments. That is not the point of what was said, at all.
Try reading this extra slowly:
*The Ford Mustang is a pony car. That has never changed. A pony car, by definition, is a 2 door low-slung highly stylized coupe or convertible with a long hood and short deck.*
A four-door crossover SUV (The Mach E) with the Mustang name slapped on in the name of sales is a slap to the face of nearly 60 years of heritage. The issue is the body style, not the power plant.
I'd argue that not many guys on this planet are as passionate about Mustangs as myself, and the fact is Ford is a business, and if they want to continue to be profitable in the future they had to use the asset that is the Mustang name for electrification. It will help sales and will secure the Mustang platform for years to come. If this move pissed off Mustang faithfuls they need step back and try to understand where this industry is headed.
OMG old school outro. Love it!
You guys are putting out *big* “Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure” vibes with that blond hair Yuri!😂👌🏾
Love the interior except for the screen, yes, its dangerous. It doesn't need to be that big. The climate controls could easily have been replaced by a regular climate panel. Also, the Tesla stalk shift is so much better. I hate rotary shifters, its not logical. You pull back or down doe drive and push forward/up for reverse. Its pretty simple.
Thank Tesla for that, the elitest Teslarati seem to think if you don't have an overlarged center screen you cannot be considered a "real" electric car competitor. I would love to see a completely analog electric car dash imho. there would be a market for it imho.
I actually like the long screens better than the wide screens. Maybe I’m weird but I didn’t like the Tesla Y’s seemingly smaller more distant wife/horizontal screen as much as I like the long ones. They should’ve build it into the console lile Tesla does & not like sticking out like that like the ones in the Tesla 3’s…
Ill take the rotary shifter. And I like how it will spin forever, its so easy to find the gears. And it auto parks when you turn the car off. All good stuff.
I drove one for 20 minutes and didn't notice the screen hitting me in the knee. I'm big and I like a close driving position, so I opten hate problems with my knees not fitting in specific cars. I'll have to go sit in one again and pay closer attention to that.
Nice review! I like the looks but wish there was a shade for the glass top. Good to know about the screen hitting knees. Also $50k would be a fair price for this car.
yo the matchcuts at 1:06 are MONEY
Ah yes, all of the things we love about the mustang- a two door V8 RWD muscle car with a legendary exhaust note. Oh wait... they just slapped a badge and some lights on an electric SUV? Crazy.
I mean several reviewers have praised the handling "for an suv" and its definitely powerful/fast enough, it absolutely is worth the name just no exhaust note bc well electric, obviously not exactly the same, they just wanted it to be cool
@The Pug That Jumped Over The Moon EXACTLY it’s an suv. Electric is not the problem but the fact that they’ve jumped on the suv bandwagon and tried to make a Tesla clone is just sad. It may be a cool car but why did they have to sully the mustang name🙁. The first electric mustang should’ve been a mustang not a Tesla suv.
I'd wager the Mach-E will out perform any Mustang prior to the S550 in any metric. All previous Mustangs handled poorly for a car.
@@snapchord honestly don't think they really made it like a tesla at all, don't think they could've done that much better with an suv and a ton of people would be mad at a electric mustang too bc thats not the heritage of the car, they honestly were either gonna upset no one and make a car no one cared about really or do something bold and honestly I think its pretty good just expensive
5:03 Black panels at the top and bottom to make it look not-SUV which does trick your eye ONLY WORKS on light body colors which is why the press/review cars are all white and/or this yellorange color....!
Never knew this existed and saw one, blacked out model, for the very first time. Had to tap on dudes window to holla. Dats a bad mofo!
New Challenger vs Old Challenger Review next please
Model 3 Performance definitely makes it easy to drive like a maniac. Track mode let's you set up for burnouts, donuts, drifting... Ford can do the same via software update if they choose to.
I used to think the Stinger was the ultimate (affordable) dad car but now this clearly is!
No no its still the stinger lol
@@TheStraightPipes Having owned both, I have to respectfully (slightly) disagree :) The patented “stab and go” works way better in the Mach E lol
the stinger is way better than this, but if you want a true performance electric car get a Tesla
@@vroooom Mustang has no top end and gets walked by any 300 hp car On the highway. Car traps 100 mph in the quarter. Gets annihilated by any Tesla that has ever been released on the highway as well. Very disappointed in the Mach e gt real world performance figures coming from a Tesla owner.
Stinger with just a tune would smash the gt from a stop. Waiting on the ev6 gt to consider an suv.
@@Alex.AL_26 Teslas are not performance cars, they just go straight. Even Doug ripped apart Tesla’s in his latest Mach E review.
Yuri don’t got Hollywood on us not sure what we doing with the hair lol 😂. Love the reviews this one was great like all of them
Unfortunately some dealers put an additional $10k markup on these cars.
9:35 precisely one if the huge selling points for me. Keep your noise ans cop attention grabbing. I'll take the actual performance. Now if it could actually do a decent 1/4 mile.
Model 3 Performance owner, I absolutely drive it crazier than any ICE vehicle… that’s what makes electric stealth worth it. I canyon carved at “illegal” speeds then snuck past a hidden speed trap at the end with regen braking… the cop pulled the loud full exhaust STI trying its best to keep up that they heard from miles away… plus M3P “Track Mode” donuts and burnouts in parking lots where you only hear tires is disconcerting AF for people watching. The instant speed and stealth antics is the MAIN attraction for electric performance - Ford needs to make a Track Mode like the the M3P
What is that sound at 0:28? Sounds like someone shitting their pants to me 🤣
Is one of them 16 again?
What’s my age again. What’s my age again
At the end of the year will you please pull together "best of EV sounds"
Yes I drive it faster. Nobody complains about the exhaust sound. Its just so easy and doesn't feel like its going to break the car. Its much cheaper vs gas at full throttle. Plus I know I am regenerating some of that energy when I let off the throttle.
i really appreciate seeing the Quebec plate on the car ! hope you enjoy the french canadian area's :P
Those waves/ribs in the hood look just like sand dunes in that shot with the lighting it was in.
3:32 bluetooth wheels?
Can we start with the looks?? And I mean yuris
Did Ford not add launch control for safety reasons?!
I exited the video after 0:25 🤣🤣🤣
"I'm edgy"
How does it perform atound crowds
That donut 🍩 😂
😭😭
I’m a Ford fan, however, I’d stick with the Model Y.
Ford should have just called it the Mach E and left the mustang name out of it
Yes, my knee has a 5 star damage from that screen
I have an orange supercharged mustang gt and have been thinking about getting one of these for my wife.
i thought this car was bigger but when i saw it in person.. it is pretty small
30-50% charge cost 10$? That seems like alot?
It's a lot
He actually paid $10 for a 17% increase. That's horrendous, and will only get worse as gas/petro vehicles are removed from roads. A 260 mile range may not be terrible for everyday driving, but it severely limits cross country road trips.
Everyone loves the idea of a green future, but nobody considers how to build and power an energy grid capable of charging hundreds of millions of these vehicles.
When the 10 year agenda includes limiting private ownership of large purchases and discouraging travel, I guess 260 mile ranges should be the least of our worries.
