An Electric New Addition to the Mustang Family
By Grayson Kable
When it comes to describing the new 2021 Ford Mustang, we think it’s best to quote Ford, “Built from all the passion of its iconic heritage, Mustang Mach-E is a new shape of freedom. Get ready for 0-60 thrills with zero emissions.”
The Mach-E is Ford’s first electric addition to the Mustang lineup of cars. It combines facets that every consumer can enjoy. From its immense power that enables the Mach-E to go from 0 to 60 in less than 4 seconds, to a near-silent environment that even a baby could fall asleep in, the Mach-E is a multifaceted vehicle that every consumer can enjoy.
As we are beginning to see more and more electric vehicles in the Inland Northwest, it’s important to understand why the Mach-E stands out. This electric pony is a no-compromise solution for anyone. The Mach-E sports spacious interiors, a fully capable all-wheel drive transmission, and immense storage capability!
While the Mach-E sports plenty of space for passengers, this pony also features front-load freedom that allows you to practically pack a circus in your car! With 4.8 cubic feet of water-resistant storage under the front hood, it’s perfect for tailgating, camping and muddy gear-toting.
Now imagine all this but with a $7,500 tax credit. Well you don’t have to imagine now, because that is exactly what you get for helping reduce carbon emission by buying the 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E.
But that’s not all the Mach-E saves you, other benefits include:
- $431 Potential Annual Scheduled Maintenance Savings
- $893 Potential Annual Fuel Savings
The scheduled maintenance cost on the Ford Mustang Mach-E is estimated to be 35% less than the average scheduled maintenance cost compared to a gas-powered 2020 Escape over the First 5 Years/75,000 miles!
One qualm people have with switching to an electric vehicle is the time it takes to charge that puppy up. And it is typically a valid concern, but not so much for the Mach-E.
Plus, it doesn’t get any more convenient when it comes to charging up your car. You can get a charger installed in your own home, so you never have to leave to charge up your vehicle. No more altering your busy routine to fit in a 10 minute trip to the gas station every week or so! With just 10 minutes of charging with Ford’s Fast Charger, you can get 47 Miles of range.
And even if you were to get low on charge, Car Chargers are becoming increasingly more common to the point where you can find dozens of them in the Spokane and Coeur d’Alene area. You can also visit Ford’s website to access a map with all locations near you!
Mustangs have always been about beautiful proportions, and the Mach-E succeeds. With its long hood and sloping roof, the Mach-E looks great, particularly in profile. Many styling elements are classic Mustang.
These include a shark nose, a prominent brow, short overhangs, pulled-back A-pillars and a sweeping roof, together with a long wheelbase, pronounced rear haunches and tri-bar taillamps. The exterior door handles, of note, aren’t integrated into the Mach-E’s sheet metal as you might expect. Rather, each front door has a pushbutton release with a tiny L-shaped grab handle, while the rears also open with a pushbutton but no exterior handles.
Even after discussing all of its perks, we still haven’t mentioned what truly makes the Mach-E stand out. If you just take a glance at the interior design and technology that the Mach-E sports, you can understand why it is the cream of the crop! Do you lose track of your keys as much as I do, then fear no more with the FordPass App. Remote start your Mach-E and experience the true luxury of owning this new Mustang!
Among other features the FordPass App can:
- Monitor charging progress
- Set charging schedules and easily pre-condition your vehicle
