The 2025 Ford Mustang Mach-E reimagines Ford's iconic pony car as an SUV of the future. It comes packed with innovative features, including a high-performance electric powertrain, 1-Pedal Drive mode, and semi-autonomous driving technology. more High-Performance Electric Powertrain Electric powertrains are the future of performance, and the Mustang Mach-E's many configurations show why. At the entry level, the SUV features a 73-kWh battery and a capable rear-axle-mounted motor.

This eAWD system generates a peppy 480 horsepower and 700 lb-ft of torque and enables the SUV to reach 60 mph from a standstill in just 3.4 seconds. Intelligent Range The Mustang Mach-E drives up to 260 miles in its base configuration and up to 320 miles with the available 88-kWh extended-range battery. Regardless of which battery pack your SUV is equipped with, you can always rely on the vehicle's Intelligent Range system to provide an accurate range estimate.

The recaptured energy is then converted to electricity and repurposed for vehicle operation. 1-Pedal Drive mode helps drivers make the most of the SUV's electric range.

When activated, BlueCruise manages acceleration, braking, and steering, enabling drivers to take their hands off the steering wheel. The version of BlueCruise available in the Mustang Mach-E is also capable of automatic lane changes. The system initiates a lane change to overtake a slow vehicle after determining whether there is enough time and space. The Mustang Mach-E's innovative powertrain and tech make it both a forward-thinking daily driver and a track-focused SUV.
