Rather than talk about important items like reliability, safety, comfort, cost, depreciation, build quality, and durability you spend most of the time talking about the touch screen, Apple carplay, button placement, map integration, and the stereo. You're buying a car, not a computer on wheels!!
ikr, I’m curious to see this thing at the rust belt and how road salt and water would affect the body and possibly even the batteries, as well as cold-weather performance
i owned a 2021 and then traded it in for a 2023 gtpe and on neither of them I have ever had the system default to blasting heat (had 22k miles on the 2021 at trade in and almost 5k miles on the 2023 gtpe). One note for anyone looking into this or even another EV i recommend getting the awd I personally think it helps so much with the added weight of the batteries in all aspects from starting stopping and drive feel.
I’m about to pick one up with the exact same spec (white on white, Premium trim), BUT with AWD. Also 2021, and only 11,500 miles on it (yes, 3yrs old and only 11k miles). Looks and feels brand new, but costs a whole lot less than when new. No accidents, local vehicle. Had a great long (~50mi) test drive today, city and hwy, used BlueCruise and everything worked great. Mint condition. Also test drove the Ioniq 5 (2022 with 8k miles) and ID4 (new 2023) in the last 10 days. Mach-E hands down the best value for a fully loaded used EV. On new ones for 48 months, 0.99% lease rates are offered as well.
@@JamalSmiith a day later found a red metallic 2022 with only 2,000 miles on it for only $2k more, but it was 800 miles from me, so I did not feel that the white one was such a great deal anymore and backed out of the deal. And the red one ended up being too far. Funny enough, a week or two later ended up getting a 2022 white long range awd Tesla Model Y at a great deal ($32k). Tried to stay away from the Tesla as everyone has it, but love the gigantic 3 trunk spaces, large screen and the software is amazing.
My first 10,000 was pretty similar, but I would add that PAAK is still a mess. It sometimes takes me 4-5 pushes of the door button to open the door, and about 1-2 times per month I get the dreaded “no key detected” and have to enter my very long back-up passcode. It does ride very stiff so look elsewhere if you want comfort. Bluecruise struggles to stay in the center of the lane and constantly bounces back and forth. It also gets very close to other cars causing me to keep my hands on the wheel. Sensors need major improvement. Lastly, my lights occasionally stay on long after my car was turned off. Apparently, Ford has released a bulletin on this, so my dealer has ordered me a new light control switch. Other than that, it’s really fun to drive!
I love my 2022 Mach-E, that UI update is a game-changer, once they added the ability to use the volume knob to control the temperature, fan speed, and heated seats there's no need to even take your eyes off the road when driving. One note to this video, the Mach-E unfortunately only qualifies for a $3,750 tax credit because the batteries are made outside of North America. It's an amazing car though, I also overpaid for mine (although it was after Ford intervened so "only" 5K over) because unfortunately we all overpaid for cars in 2022; aside from that, zero regrets, I've had it for almost a year and I find it as fun and exciting today as I did the day I bought it.
2 years 3 months and 46,000 miles on my Mach E4x and just $20 spent for tire rotation. I love not having to take it in for maintenance and stopping at gas stations every week
electric cars are a big question , nobody realy knows what they will really cost you. Wait for the goverment coming after you because you are not paying your share for road maintence and bridge maintenance: 50% of agaloon ofgas goes for this service. which meùans the goverment is making as much money as the big gas company. do you have any idea how much money that is : BILLIONS. WHEN WILL YOU BE ASK TO PAY YOUR SHARE. gET READY TO SELLL YOUR WONDERFUL ELECTRIC CAR. you wont be able to give it away.
The dealer markup is really hurting sales and reputation. After buying two new Fords in the last decade, we just bought a new Tesla Model Y and I'm thinking strongly about trading my Fusion in for another Tesla.
@@theMLBfan I'm retired, but am seriously considering going back to work so I can make payments. My wife is saving $200/month on gas and the lack of scheduled maintenance combine to make a very compelling sales pitch. The model 3 and Y are already below the average US car price of $48,000. I guess the truck prices have blown the automotive market up. I can't imagine buying an $80,000 truck and still needing to put diesel in to drive it around.
I ordered mine in December on Fords website. It just got finished being built and shipped a few days ago. So took about 6 months. Not only did ford drop the msrp price because Tesla dropped model y price by about 6 K during that time, but theres no dealer mark up. Definitely worth the wait
I have a 2021 First Edition Mach-E and its probably the best car ive ever owned. But i do have all the latest Sync software updates and they really make a big difference to the daily user experience, so i hope you get it soon on yours. Also, when you take it in for service, be sure to ask the dealer to "Use FDRS to update the BCM snd GFM modules to the latest version, then run the routine to add the front trunk release soft button to the Sync screen". This is not coming OTA to the 2021s and dealers will not do it by default unless you ask. This will not only give you a frunk trunk open button on your screen, but will enable you to use an F150 Lightning key fob to pop open the frunk remotely. I just did this and it makes using the frunk so much easier.
Agreed. Ford has underpromised and over delivered. Of course, it all depends on conditions and style. I want to do long term testing but I routinely get an indicated range of 350 or more (up to nearly 400) at full charge. Most days I’m driving in town Uber or Lyft trips w lots of coast and brake at moderate speeds. Very little hiway driving. My cal route 1 r/w drive is perfect for local tripping. Get on the interstate at speeds of 70+, watch the electrons drain quick.
When you mentioned the dealer had a 10,000 add on to the sticker and you had to deal them down, FORD should take away that dealership and that may be the reason no one buying them , I wouldn’t pay $10,000 over sticker , it’s nice but not that nice what jerks they were sorry to hear that.
I wish I saw more of these on the road. Since it's release I've only seen 4 cars. Of course I've seen a ton of Tesla's. They are all over the place. Next is the Hyundai Ionic not a ton but definitely seen at least 8 cars. I saw one Polestar. Two VW ID4 and some Bolts. But really the road is dominated by Tesla's which is to be expected as they've been around the longest. But other cars not so much.
They're all over the place in Vegas. Vegas is actually electric car heaven. You don't go a day without seeing pretty much everything with only lucid and Cadillac being rare. Taycans are on every corner
Mullinax Ford had a 2021 Mach E with 20,000 miles for $32,000 about a month ago. And Ford just moved to iron phosphate batteries dropping the price a second time.
I agree with the comment about the naming of this car. But I'm biased. Old school long time Mustang owner here. But that wouldn't make me not buy one of these. I'd just have to remove all possible Mustang badges before I'd be seen driving it in public.
My friend with the Mustang has developed a New Best Friend - His Dealerships overworked Warranty Work Expert ? Petrified when vehicle comes off of warranty ? 😢
I don't think a car should try to be a big four-wheeled iPhone that minimizes the need for the driver to actually drive. Keep your hands on the wheel and your eyes on the road.
Literally brand new 2022's in Canada with zero miles. There's about 20 or 30 of them just on a auto trader. But of course, they wouldn't not list other ones they haven't inventory to look bad, right? Hundreds of unused 2023s for sale.
There needs to be more user engagement. We need more control over what the car can do. The ability to tell it to do what we want at any given scenario via an app or that screen.
Glance to nearby traffic movement for visual speed confirmation. Sounds like y’all aren’t capable of using side or rear view mirrors either if you are only able to look in a forward direction. Or, y’all are still living in the ice-age.
61k for a RWD Ford is ridiculous. If Ford is wondering why they are not selling then they just need to look at that one sentence. No sane person would pay that markup. Even the price without markup is too high. It's not large, it's got crappy range, it's a first gen of a vehicle from someone not known for reliability on first gen stuff. Just buy nearly anything else and use the money saved for gas. Sell that "anything else" in five years. You likely drove for free with that money saved and it will be worth more than a used Mustang EV at that point.
Controls really shouldn't exist only on the touch screen. No doubt about it, using the touch screen takes your attention away from driving. Too dangerous!
I think this vehicle is a bigger deal to forever changing the US economy than even Tesla but we'll see I think as soon as this Year 2023. Did see one on the drive down here to South Carolina.
This is not nearly at the top of heap of electric cars, and Ford/GM are far behind the class leaders. Consumer Reports is much closer to the mark on this car.
I can just see myself going down to florida from canada and having to stop for recharge down hyway 95 .I for one will wait till they triple the infrastructure. rt now you dont know what your going to get. Not all the electric cars charge in 18 minutes tank you .
Sucks you paid thousands in markup. It's because people do that, that dealers keep getting away with it and ruining it for everyone not dumb enough to pay stealership markups
I remember when ALL Fords were made in good ol’ Detroit. Now they farm the work out to Mexico/China AND charge the consumer even more for the vehicles these days.
I remember when the government was concerned about drivers paying attention to their driving. If I ever get hit by one of these big screen EVs I will be starting a class action lawsuit. Every time you look over and down to the screen your eyes are off the road. And don't get me started on "self driving" vehicles.
LMAO good luck winning that. Also on the Mach e the stearing wheel has all the same buttons on it that a normal vehicle has the screen is actually less used than you would think during the driving. Also the "self driving" that is available on any car currently still requires the driver to pay attention so again you wont win any lawsuits against the companies
🖐🖐😳1. Why call this a “Mustang”? …shortage of names? 2. is the back half inspired by a orthopedic shoe? 3. Interior screens look as though they were afterthought add ons by the dealer! 🔥🔥🔥
Dealer makeup! And ford bad engineering! Tesla sounds like the better option no dealer mark ups! Easy to order and u get discounts! After fixing fords for the last 10 years I wouldn’t never buy a ford! Work as a mechanic there’s only a small group of cars I would buy! And ford isn’t one of them! They are one of the worst when to comes to service.
Blue Cruise is completely useless and pointless unless you want to pay more for a vehicle and insurance. The giant screen is gross and integrating most functions into it is frustrating. This fad needs to end ASAP! The interior is mediocre which is typical for Ford, and at this price is a letdown. This needs a full redesign.
Yea, ADM sucks but there are auto dealerships out there that will honor the sticker price with no ADM. My local Ford dealership did. IIRC the popular mach-e forum maintains (or least they did) a list of Ford dealerships in the US that were NOT charging an ADM.
@@chuckm260you’re right but there’s too much time involved for finding a dealer thst will honor MSRP. It will take hours to go through negotiations and then finance, to truly validate they don’t f u at other aspects and get a Ford at MSRP. Most will f u at other parts of the deal. By the time you find it out, you’re already 4-5 hours into it. It’s much more convenient to get a cheaper, faster, Tesla at a click of a button. The Mustang Mach E seems like a great car but it’s not that much better to deal with dealer antics in a seller’s market. Once the market cools off, it might be a different story
@@ItsAlive111 - Yea, I hear ya about the time investment and headache of going to a dealership. I dread it! But TBH, the combination of Ford's "semi" direct sales approach to the Mach-E and my own leg work made the process nearly painless - about an hour. In addition to them guaranteeing no ADM, I made sure by getting that in writing. Then I found out about getting a membership to the Mustang Club of America that carries a benefit that qualifies members for IIRC the X-plan pricing, which means they have to sell the vehicle at MSRP plus some nominal admin fee, like $150. Sweet! I also kept the deal simple with no trade-in, no extra / extended warranties or any other extra B.S. Ford Financing even beat my local credit union's and bank's new car loan rate by offering 0.9% !!! (Yea, this was a couple of years ago :). And now I have multiple brick-and-mortar places at my disposal for any warranty / recall / repair work I need. Fortunately so far I haven't need any work done. While lately I've been reading articles on how Tesla owner's are waiting even longer these days for parts and repairs - anywhere from a few months to a year. That's nuts! Anyhow, I have nothing against Tesla, the car styling just is not for me. I was shocked how simple / convenient it was to purchase the Mach-E. Granted I had a pre-order submitted the day they reveal and was pretty close to the front of the line. Admittingly, I have no idea how things are going at Ford dealerships today but my experience at the time was surprisingly straight forward and nearly headache free. And from what I could tell reading the forums I wasn't alone in that experience. Of course one mileage will vary as I read about some purchases that didn't go that smoothly but IMO that's to be expected especially since this was virtually a new purchase paradigm for Ford.
I hope Lincoln never gets the Tesla poison. I want an EV but as a Lincoln driver I would be disgusted driving something like the Mach E which is based on Tesla in too many horrible ways. I don't like feeling like I'm driving a Cruisin' USA video game cabinet 🤮 Imagine having to use even 1% of your brain to adjust the temperature. PASS.
I think you made a mistake in the video title. It should say FORD MOCKERY. FYI, I did trademark that so if you use it, gotta pay me. Thanks I am here all week.
Unfortunately that's the current reality given the cost of batteries and whatnot, but like most things, prices should come down with time and further development of the technology.
@@edmundscars most electric cars top speed is 120 to 150, but a Bugatti’s top speed is 300 mph. So tell me again how an electric car is fast? you know there’s a difference between quick and fast, right?
Hey Rusty, you're right. There’s a difference between quick and fast. A lot of EVs are quick. But just like most ICE cars on the market, the top speed isn’t a factor most manufactures are worried about. But there are EVs that are quick and fast such as the Rimac Nevera.
@@Tylerd838 Then again the cars are being sold in America where there is NO Autobahn; the top speed limit is 85 maybe in western Texas. Anything over 100 MPH is fast here and you can buy dozens of Model S Plaids that can now do 200 for the price of a single Bugatti. Get your priorities straight and realistic.

Mach E is assembled in Mexico, how do you get this wrong? you guys are supposed to be journalists or is this a ChatGPT generated video..
Mexico and Canada are in "North America" and cars assembled there qualify for the tax credit.
Sucks you paid thousands in markup. It's because people do that, that dealers keep getting away with it and ruining it for everyone not dumb enough to pay stealership markups
10,000 mi isn't enough to be doing a long-term longevity test.
@Catholic Firefighter what the hell are you talking about?
@Catholic Firefighter much like the math problem you keep posting and the things listed in that problem, you have zero solution. Have a good day.
@catholicfirefighterI think you forgot to take your medication
I remember when ALL Fords were made in good ol’ Detroit. Now they farm the work out to Mexico/China AND charge the consumer even more for the vehicles these days.
I thought it was built in Mexico and only qualified for $3500 rebate?
Y are Americans charged for cars🤔.....if the government can send billions overseas.....then the least they can do for us is give us a car....🤸♂️
WTF are you talking about? The government is not in the car business, does not sell cars anywhere. Delusional.
I remember when the government was concerned about drivers paying attention to their driving. If I ever get hit by one of these big screen EVs I will be starting a class action lawsuit. Every time you look over and down to the screen your eyes are off the road. And don't get me started on "self driving" vehicles.
LMAO good luck winning that. Also on the Mach e the stearing wheel has all the same buttons on it that a normal vehicle has the screen is actually less used than you would think during the driving. Also the "self driving" that is available on any car currently still requires the driver to pay attention so again you wont win any lawsuits against the companies
You havea better chance of getting hit by someone looking at their small phone screen while driving 🤦🏻♂️
Nissan ARIYA is better made, more elegant and much lower priced since no price mark up.
🖐🖐😳1. Why call this a “Mustang”? …shortage of names? 2. is the back half inspired by a orthopedic shoe? 3. Interior screens look as though they were afterthought add ons by the dealer! 🔥🔥🔥
"Big Screen Energy" 🙄
Anybody who would buy a high torque rear wheel vehicle in a snowy state needs their head examined!!!! Can you say slip side away?
Dealer makeup! And ford bad engineering! Tesla sounds like the better option no dealer mark ups! Easy to order and u get discounts!
After fixing fords for the last 10 years I wouldn’t never buy a ford! Work as a mechanic there’s only a small group of cars I would buy! And ford isn’t one of them! They are one of the worst when to comes to service.
Blue Cruise is completely useless and pointless unless you want to pay more for a vehicle and insurance. The giant screen is gross and integrating most functions into it is frustrating. This fad needs to end ASAP! The interior is mediocre which is typical for Ford, and at this price is a letdown. This needs a full redesign.
It's made in Mexico.
61k for that! Ridiculous. Also, the screen is the main focus because it is the only thing in the interior. Everything else is just cheap plastic.
You obviously have not even sat inside a Mach E so your stated opinion is invalid if not false. Mach E GT Performance owner.
I agree with the name part beautiful ev but calling it a mustang is not bright at all lol.
Names don't matter
11:11 Lies, it is built in Mexico.
2:14 also, ford just dropped the price of this car (was done after recording so Edmunds can't be faulted for that), so it's an even better deal now.
Dealer markups are still there eating all the discounts Ford tries to give to customers
It's nowhere close to being a good deal with it being so expensive.
Agree. Plus, there are auto dealerships out there that will honor the sticker price with no ADM. My local Ford dealership did.
Yes or no...... is the Tesla Model 3 as nice as this car?
Uh, no?
No
Ford made in Mexico my Toyotas made in the US..
We all love Mexico,they do a great job!
I agree, it is not a Mustang. I think Ford had to use that name since the only car they are making now is a Mustang.
It’s a mustang 😂😂😂😂😂
Agreed, they shouldn't have used the Mustang name for this...
Nobody cares
$61k buys you a top trim Tesla Model Y. No thanks, I don’t want to pay markups to dealers for nothing
The Model Y Performance in Grey is just over $55K and that is before the tax credit.
Yea, ADM sucks but there are auto dealerships out there that will honor the sticker price with no ADM. My local Ford dealership did. IIRC the popular mach-e forum maintains (or least they did) a list of Ford dealerships in the US that were NOT charging an ADM.
@@chuckm260you’re right but there’s too much time involved for finding a dealer thst will honor MSRP. It will take hours to go through negotiations and then finance, to truly validate they don’t f u at other aspects and get a Ford at MSRP. Most will f u at other parts of the deal. By the time you find it out, you’re already 4-5 hours into it. It’s much more convenient to get a cheaper, faster, Tesla at a click of a button. The Mustang Mach E seems like a great car but it’s not that much better to deal with dealer antics in a seller’s market. Once the market cools off, it might be a different story
@@ItsAlive111 - Yea, I hear ya about the time investment and headache of going to a dealership. I dread it! But TBH, the combination of Ford's "semi" direct sales approach to the Mach-E and my own leg work made the process nearly painless - about an hour. In addition to them guaranteeing no ADM, I made sure by getting that in writing. Then I found out about getting a membership to the Mustang Club of America that carries a benefit that qualifies members for IIRC the X-plan pricing, which means they have to sell the vehicle at MSRP plus some nominal admin fee, like $150. Sweet! I also kept the deal simple with no trade-in, no extra / extended warranties or any other extra B.S. Ford Financing even beat my local credit union's and bank's new car loan rate by offering 0.9% !!! (Yea, this was a couple of years ago :). And now I have multiple brick-and-mortar places at my disposal for any warranty / recall / repair work I need. Fortunately so far I haven't need any work done. While lately I've been reading articles on how Tesla owner's are waiting even longer these days for parts and repairs - anywhere from a few months to a year. That's nuts! Anyhow, I have nothing against Tesla, the car styling just is not for me.
I was shocked how simple / convenient it was to purchase the Mach-E. Granted I had a pre-order submitted the day they reveal and was pretty close to the front of the line. Admittingly, I have no idea how things are going at Ford dealerships today but my experience at the time was surprisingly straight forward and nearly headache free. And from what I could tell reading the forums I wasn't alone in that experience. Of course one mileage will vary as I read about some purchases that didn't go that smoothly but IMO that's to be expected especially since this was virtually a new purchase paradigm for Ford.
@@chuckm260 thanks for your time to write this down
“Big screen energy” is the opposite of cool.
10k markup? No thanks
This car doesn't deserve to be called a mustang. What a disgrace branding and history.
Lol mine has 30k miles 😅
I hope Lincoln never gets the Tesla poison. I want an EV but as a Lincoln driver I would be disgusted driving something like the Mach E which is based on Tesla in too many horrible ways. I don't like feeling like I'm driving a Cruisin' USA video game cabinet 🤮
Imagine having to use even 1% of your brain to adjust the temperature. PASS.
Carmakers are starting to realize that their massive investment in E vehicles is failing. Glad to see it.
Calling this car a mustang is like taking the Ford Focus and throwing the F-150 badge on it.
I think you made a mistake in the video title. It should say FORD MOCKERY. FYI, I did trademark that so if you use it, gotta pay me. Thanks I am here all week.
Lol so almost all EV's are 'luxury'
Unfortunately that's the current reality given the cost of batteries and whatnot, but like most things, prices should come down with time and further development of the technology.
It's no Mustang, it's no Mach. Stop the B.S.
It’s not a Mustang
Yes it is 😂😂😂😂
Overall, it is Overpaid and Overhyped.
Edmunds should apologize for people who bought it based on your verdict that it was comfortable. Huh!
Careful, this publication is woke, they are not auto journalists
What does "woke" mean
The Ford Mustang just became a Ford Gelding💩
doesn't seem like a compelling car to buy.
evs are kinda slow
Not really
@@edmundscars most electric cars top speed is 120 to 150, but a Bugatti’s top speed is 300 mph. So tell me again how an electric car is fast? you know there’s a difference between quick and fast, right?
Hey Rusty, you're right. There’s a difference between quick and fast. A lot of EVs are quick. But just like most ICE cars on the market, the top speed isn’t a factor most manufactures are worried about. But there are EVs that are quick and fast such as the Rimac Nevera.
@@Tylerd838lmk when you’re gonna drive anywhere near those speeds. What a stupid ass comment
@@Tylerd838 Then again the cars are being sold in America where there is NO Autobahn; the top speed limit is 85 maybe in western Texas. Anything over 100 MPH is fast here and you can buy dozens of Model S Plaids that can now do 200 for the price of a single Bugatti. Get your priorities straight and realistic.
#notamustang #fjb
meh, it's weird how people are still hung up on the Mustang label. Let it go, dude. #fdt
#whocares?
Electric is junk
EVs are awesome. Almost no maintenance, you can "refuel" at home while you sleep, instant torque, smooth acceleration, quiet ...
@That Guy What about when the battery explodes in the first year. Does that not need maintanance?
@@Gay-is-_-trash
I didn't buy a Chevy Bolt so that's not a real concern. EVs have a lower fire risk than ICE or Hybrids do.
@@That-Guy_ Where did you get that info? From the Biden administration?
How TF is 10 thousand miles considered long term… it’s still brand new.
