Comment on Ford Mustang Mach-E Recalled Because Battery Can't Handle Owners Flooring Itparent

Comments

I owned a V8 Mustang in my early 20s, and I test drove a Mach E recently and it's a very exciting drive. I haven't driven the Model Y yet, but I have driven the ID.4. Those 3 are really the sweet spot in terms of what I will most likely replace my ICE with when the time comes.

The Mach E is fast enough that I kind of get it now that I've driven one. Mustangs historically are straight line cars that didn't necessarily blow your mind when cornering. Essentially all electric cars fit that mold.

And anyway the Mach E is very heavy compared to most mustangs historically, but it's suspension design is better than what most Mustangs had historically so it might be more competitive down a curvy road than expected. Most Mustangs until fairly recently had a pretty hard time dealing with mid-corner bumps and road imperfections. And the Mach E accelerates harder than the vast majority of V8 Mustangs ever built.
