I’m a retired manufacturing executive/engineering manager who is also a recovering data and analysis junkie, and also a car enthusiast for my whole driving life. I knew I wanted to do most of my driving without fossil fuels, and after 8 months of research and test drives, I leased a new 2024 Mach-E Premium AWD w/extended battery. I drove the top PHEVs (past and present) and EVs and for my use case, the Mach-E checks all the right boxes. We’re both retired and, if you subtract the long-distance drives, we really don’t drive a lot….maybe only 7-8,000 miles/yr. My wife has a nice Infiniti QX50 that we take the long trips in, so I didn’t need an EV that would DC charge all that fast, since I will be using my level 2 home charger 99.9% of the time. I also don’t need that much range, but my research suggests that some of these cars offer higher performance from the bigger battery packs, you know, for when you want it ;). There’s really no financial justification for us switching from an ice-car into an EV, nor that much of an environmental advantage but then again, one vote in an election also doesn’t look like it matters that much does it? So I decided to make the move. I drove the Teslas; Y and 3. These are probably the best designed EVs in their price range but their interiors are their own sort of sensory deprivation chamber; after years of driving Bimmers and Audis it was a bridge too far for me. Plus, their insurance premiums were the highest of any vehicle I considered, wiping out any gas savings. The Kia EV6 was a great option, but the grapevine told me our local dealerships and service departments did not inspire confidence and devotion. That and the fact that at the time they would still have to use the untrustworthy non-Tesla charging networks to take advantage of their ultra-fast charging ability, which then negated that same advantage. Also, because Kias and Hyundais are the most stolen vehicles in the country, their insurance premiums are very high. PHEVs were ultimately eliminated because they perpetuated maintenance costs I wanted to escape and in cold weather their short electric ranges would be even shorter. The Mach-E is a great looking car; perhaps the best looking EV for a guy raised on 60’s and 70’s muscle cars. I turn and look at it as I walk away…..whereas I would just simply walk away from a Tesla. Its interior is also very nice, and has the usual assortment of physical controls that make transitioning from an ice-car easy. Finally, the Mach-E insurance premium was the lowest of any car I considered, sealing the deal. The car rides better than the Teslas too; my wife commented that it rode better even than my 2017 Infiniti QX50! There is some small porpoising over inconsistent road surfaces, although nowhere near as bad as I experienced in the 2021 Mach-Es I drove. The handling-ride compromise evokes memories of the several 5-series Bimmers I’ve owned so I’m happy with that. And so far, my efficiency calculations tell me I’m getting 4.1-4.3 miles/KWh albeit in ‘whisper’ mode and maximizing use of regen. I’ve only got less than 300 miles on the odometer so far so I’ll be updating this review regularly. So far, I am positively delighted with this choice!! For my use-case, nothing else would satisfy as well! UPDATE 2/20/2025 Still in love with this car!!! We’ve put about 3k miles on the odometer in just over 6 months and the car has proven perfectly reliable, which it anyway should. I still love driving every mile in it and my wife loves it too. I have level 2 (220V) charging in my garage and so wake up every morning with a ‘full tank’, ready to go. It’s been very cold these past weeks but, because there is no engine generating exhaust fumes, I can program the car (through the Ford app) to turn on and warm the cabin, and precondition the battery, before we leave, a feature we’ve come to absolutely love!! You can’t do that with an ICE car in a garage with the doors closed! There was a minor issue early on with the audio system. The car would ‘forget’ changes I made to the EQ settings after turning it off. Well this was fixed with an over-the-air (OTA) update, another feature of EVs that we love. So during the warmer months the car’s range had been around 300 miles and its driving efficiency around 4 mi/Kwh. I use the most ECO-friendly driving mode (‘Whisper’) and the car still has better performance than all but one of the 37 cars I’ve owned. And compared to my 2017 Infiniti QX50 I’m saving 80% of the gas I used to buy by charging 100% at home. But in the colder winter months my range has dropped by as much as 25%; as low as 225 miles, and my efficiency has dropped to around 2.5 M/KWh. This is because as much battery energy is being used to warm the cabin and battery as is being used to actually move the car along. So I’m only saving 50% of my previous gas bill during these times, but I’m still driving a clean, zero-emissions car, I will note here that from 2025 onward, the Mach-E finally gets a heat pump, which has been shown in Teslas to significantly improve cold-weather range and efficiency. BTW, I’ve had occasion now to experience my AWD Mach’E on snow-covered roads and it is EXCELLENT! It compares very favorably to the several Audi Quattros I have owned. We are solidly converted to owning an EV now. I don’t imagine ever not having one in our two-car ‘fleet’. Anywhere we go together we always take the Mach-E. My wife’s Infiniti gets used sparingly when she drives alone or, when we go on a long trip. All Mach-Es made so far take around 40 minutes to charge from 10% to 90%. That’s WAY too long for us to sit at a charging station during a typical trip where we might have to stop at least twice. So until U.S. manufacturers catch up with China where some cars can do that charge in only 8 minutes, we will continue to own an ICE car, or maybe a plug-in hybrid, alongside our EV. Otherwise, our Mach-E gets used for the other 345 days of the year when we’re doing our normal driving, which is well within a 100 mile radius of our home. I will close by adding that our lease will be up in July 2027. While the Mach-E will be at the top of our list, we will also look again at Kia/Hyundai offerings as well as from GM and others. A lot is happening in the EV world, and these cars are adding features while coming down in price every year. What a great time to be part of a once-in-a-lifetime technical revolution!

I bought the Ford Mustang Mach-e GT Performance Edition. The Motor Trend review recommending it over the GT without the PE package swayed me to go for the improved suspension dampening, beefier anti-sway bars, upgraded brakes, more attractive wheels and upgraded seats. Despite reading the reviews and test driving it twice before purchase, the car has been a pleasant surprise and has exceeded my expectations in almost every way possible.

I traded in a 2015 Porsche Macan S. The Mach E GTPE is way quicker. The PE suspension is worth it. The car is fun to drive. Range is not great, but I live in Atlanta and range is adequate for me.
two years of trouble-free driving.

I was replacing a car I truly loved. No one makes a fast manual station wagon anymore, at least not in my price range. I shopped manuals until I decided that if I had to give up the third pedal, I'd at least move into the 21st century while still being able to carry two full hockey bags. One foot driving on the Mach-e is just as rewarding as the clutch and with the aggressive regen setup, it is easy to bleed speed to set up the next corner. While I have the *slowest* of all Mach-e models, it is by far quicker than my 5.5 second 0-60 MPH Saab because torque arrives immediately at all speeds. Ford prevents max acceleration for longer than 5 seconds to preserve battery life so the standard 0-60 benchmark time is slower but in every day use is faster. I thought I'd keep driving my Saab because I enjoyed it so much, but it has been parked for months with a battery charger hooked up while the Mach-e flies around anything that isn't an EV up the long steep hill on the interstate on the way to my house. Sandy Monro (if you're looking for an EV, you should be watching his youtube channel) likes the Mach-e 2nd best behind the Tesla Model Y which is really good for a 1st gen product. I steered clear of the Tesla way of doing things because first principles car-focused design leaves out the consumer when it comes to autobody repair or maintenance. Tesla owners sign up to Beta test their products for free and that isn't for me either. I'd be livid if Ford disconnected/disabled the radar sensor that I paid for like Tesla has done. I've had no issues with the car except an update knocked a parking sensor offline but I'll have that fixed during regular service because it only affects the 3D view of the car. I've driven it on road trips and far up Forest service roads too without issue. My July, 2023 observation is that my trips up to ~450 miles per day are identical one-stop trips in an EV as they are in ICE. Update: I had my first expense after two years of driving. A $15 service to rotate and check tire wear, fluids, and cabin filter (dealer service). I enjoy driving this so much, I'd rather road trip with it than the ICE car I kept as a backup. I've gone 500 miles one-way to Western Montana without issue travelling through rural Eastern Washington State and Rural Idaho to get there. The charging network was good. I had two charging stops that I would not otherwise have taken and two stops that were prolonged for additional charging which in total added about three hours to a weeklong trip. I've also calculated my real world charging using my electricity bill before/after EV: at $.09/kW, it costs $14.00 to charge for 500 miles. I've spent ~$500 charging at home at ~$300 charging about 20 times on the public charging network with 98% of all charging done at home over two years and 20,000 miles (or annually $400 per year or $0.02/mile).
Very nice car, but not the right one for me.

This review is based on a lengthy test drive of the Mach-e Premium model. The car feels substantial and well-built, with good visibility. The Bang & Olufsen sound system is outstanding, a big plus. The car is fun to drive and handles well, but there were three issues that were a deal-breaker for me. First, the premium model includes a fixed-glass roof, which is tinted but has no shade. So, on hot sunny days, the lack of a shade will cause reflections and heat up the interior. Secondly, I couldn't get the seat to tilt up in the front to give me more thigh support, as do most power seats. It was an odd limitation. Lastly, the ride was consistently unsettled and rough. I realize the suspension has been tuned for optimum handling, but the tradeoff is an uncomfortable ride. Nice car, but not the one for me.
