Get ready to experience the remarkable capabilities of electric vehicles in a fresh and exhilarating manner through the introduction of the Ford Mustang Mach-E® Rally. As the latest addition to the Mustang Mach-E family, this vehicle represents a unique departure from the conventional, being Ford's inaugural rally-inspired electric vehicle.
The Ford Mustang Mach-E Rally represents groundbreaking electric vehicle technology in an unexplored territory, expanding the Mustang Mach-E family. This exceptional machine features a modified version of the Mustang Mach-E GT powertrain, designed with a dual-motor setup aiming to deliver a minimum of 650 lb.-ft. of torque and 480 horsepower.
This vehicle utilizes a distinct suspension system, elevating it by 20 millimeters compared to the Mustang Mach-E GT. It comes equipped with custom-tuned springs, MagneRide shocks, and impressive 385-millimeter front brake rotors, featuring eye-catching red-painted Brembo®-branded calipers.
Donna Dickson, Chief Engineer of Mustang Mach-E, reflected, "Only a year ago, this was just an idea, and what you're witnessing today stands as a testament to the dedication and immense creativity of our Model e team."
She continued, "We've consistently ventured into new realms of performance, and the fusion of a rally-tuned suspension, dual-motor electric powertrain, and striking aesthetics positions the Mustang Mach-E Rally as a distinctive performance vehicle that will thrill adventure-seeking customers."
The Ford Mustang Mach-E Rally incorporates a lithium-ion battery boasting a usable capacity of 91 kWh, with an anticipated EPA-estimated range of 250 miles. When using a DC Fast Charger, it's projected that the Mustang Mach-E Rally will charge from 10% to 80% in around 36 and a half minutes.
The Mustang Mach-E Rally exudes its sporty character with a striking rear spoiler inspired by the Focus® RS, distinctive contrasting accents on upper and lower body moldings, a one-of-a-kind front splitter, a sleek black painted steel roof, and a purposeful front fascia housing integrated rally-inspired fog lights.
Jim Farley, Chief Executive Officer, said, "The Mustang Mach-E Rally places Ford's enduring dedication to rally championships worldwide directly into the hands of our customers. It extends the Mustang legacy to uncharted terrain - rugged gravel and dirt roads. Designed for true driving aficionados, it offers an unparalleled driving experience, delivering sheer joy behind the wheel."
