2026 Ford Mustang Mach-E

The Mustang Mach-E is Ford’s first designed-from-the-ground-up electric vehicle. It draws some styling cues from the iconic Mustang muscle car, but the Mach-E is a five-passenger SUV with useful cargo room, and it’s available with all-wheel drive. The extended-range battery version with AWD has a 270-mile range. It takes over 10 hours to charge the 88-kWh battery from near empty. The Mach-E is quick and quiet, with taut and agile handling, all of which make it fun to drive. The 'Unbridled' drive-mode setting adds artificial engine sounds if you need more excitement. A 15.5-inch vertical touch screen dominates the stark interior; the system has a steep learning curve before familiarity sets in. All Mach-Es come with FCW, AEB with pedestrian detection, BSW, and RCTW. For 2025, all Mach-Es receive a heat pump to help optimize energy consumption, especially in colder weather conditions. The dial gear shifter was replaced by a column-mounted shifter. The latest version of Ford's BlueCruise hands-free driving system adds automatic lane change capability.

About Ford

<p>Ford shifted away from cars this decade, focusing on SUVs and pickup trucks, with the Mustang as the lone exception. Fords are seldom leaders in their segments based on CR’s tests and surveys, but the small Maverick and full-sized F-150 trucks are notable standouts. Some other models score well enough to earn our recommendation, such as the Escape Hybrid and Bronco Sport. The Mustang Mach-E EV is Ford's highest-scoring current model. Overall, Ford's new car reliability is above average, but it varies, so used-car buyers should be mindful to check our ratings. </p><p><br/></p>
