What’s in the name? The Mustang Mach E name is a reference to the high-performance “Mach 1” versions of the Mustang sports car that Ford has offered at various times. How long will it run on a charge? Ford is aiming for 230 miles of driving range per charge for standard models, and 300 miles for “extended range” models. The rival Tesla Model Y sport utility has a 300-mile range for rear-drive models, and 280 miles of range for all-wheel drive and performance models.
How big is the dashboard screen? Ford will offer a 15.5 inch screen in the Mach E. The Tesla Model 3 offers a 15-inch screen. Ford has developed a new generation of its Sync infotainment software that can be updated over the air, like a Tesla.
