The 2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E is sporty and fun to drive. It also has plenty of range and is decently roomy for people and cargo. It does suffer from some minor comfort issues, but overall it's one of our more highly recommended picks for a small electric SUV.Read full review
The Mustang Mach-E is an electric SUV and the first Ford to be designed specifically as an electric vehicle; there isn't a gas-powered version or even a hybrid. Roughly the same size as a Ford Escape, the Mustang Mach-E blends typical SUV proportions with some characteristic Mustang styling details. It's also sporty enough to give credence to its Mustang badge. It handles sharply, accelerates quickly, and has enough interior space and electric range to make it a pleasing, family-friendly daily driver.
According to GeoTab’s data, if the observed degradation rates are maintained, the vast majority of batteries will outlast the usable life of the vehicle.

There's a new Mustang Mach-E Rally for 2024. Essentially an off-road-themed version of the performance Mach-E GT trim, the Rally features rally-car-inspired wheels wrapped with rugged tires, higher ground clearance and underbody skid plates. Ford has also re-tuned the Rally's suspension and added a RallySport drive mode to help you make the most of your local dirt and gravel roads. Other changes for the 2024 Mach-E include improved horsepower and torque for nearly every Mach-E version; up to an EPA-estimated 10 miles more range; and a new Bronze Appearance package with bronze-colored wheels and a bronze-colored grille.
Competitors to consider
The Ford Mustang Mach-E competes in a segment that is quickly becoming filled with options. The Tesla Model Y remains the top seller in the class, but rivals like the Volkswagen ID.4 and Hyundai Ioniq 5 continue to gain traction with EV shoppers. The Mustang leans on its distinct looks and driving dynamics to stand out, and the galloping horse badge on the hood certainly doesn't hurt. Check out our test team's Expert Rating below for more on how the Mach-E performs in a variety of areas, from ride and handling to in-car technology and more.
What’s it like to live with?
We added a Ford Mustang Mach-E to our long-term test fleet. Our editors conducted real-world range tests, evaluated its everyday drivability, and noted issues we encountered after several months and thousands of miles. Our test vehicle was a 2021 but most of our observations still apply for 2024. Find out how the Mach-E held up in our long-term test report here.
We drove the Ford Mustang Mach-E on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.
Performance
8/10
How does the Mustang Mach-E drive? The Mach-E delivers the speed and agility expected from a Mustang badge. We tested a Mach-E in the Premium trim with the extended-range battery and all-wheel drive. At the Edmunds test track, it zipped from 0 to 60 mph in 5.2 seconds. We also tested a version with just a single motor and got a time of 6.5 seconds. A few rival EVs are a little quicker (the Tesla Model Y, for instance) but overall the Mach-E is pleasingly quick and has enough power for stress-free driving. The Mach-E is also fun to drive on twisty roads, though driving more enthusiastically reveals significant body lean and a lack of grip from the economy-minded tires.
In typical driving, the Mach-E delivers a buttery smooth experience. The regenerative braking effect works well and allows for one-pedal driving, which means you can slow down to a complete stop just by taking your foot off the accelerator. We actually prefer doing this than using the brake pedal; it's a little vague and grabby, making it hard to stop smoothly in typical driving.
Comfort
8/10
How comfortable is the Mustang Mach-E? We like like the Mustang Mach-E's powerful and easy-to-use climate control system. The available seat and steering wheel heaters get toasty pretty quick, though we'd welcome the option of seat ventilation for warmer climates. The front seats could also benefit from additional adjustments, such as a lower thigh cushion extender for longer-legged drivers, to improve comfort for a wider selection of body types.
On the highway, the Mustang Mach-E's cabin is well insulated against wind and ambient noise. The main drawback is a somewhat busy and stiff ride over rough or broken pavement. It's not uncomfortable but other EVs, such as the Hyundai Ioniq 5, ride more smoothly over bumps.
Interior
8/10
How’s the interior? The Mach-E's 15.5-inch central touchscreen is easy to use, and there's a handy shortcut bar that's continually updated based on the last functions you used. There are also enough traditional controls (such as volume knob, for example) that you won't be wondering how to make things work. The digital drive cluster ahead of the steering wheel displays pertinent info right in the driver's line of sight.
In back, there's ample space for adults. Despite the Mach-E's fastback roofline, visibility is surprisingly decent, and climbing into and out of the cabin takes little effort. The Mach-E's push-button door releases are pretty cool and work well, though we wonder how robust they'll be over time.
Current Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for base vehicle. Excludes destination/delivery fee plus government fees and taxes, any finance charges, any dealer processing charge, any electronic filing charge, and any emission testing charge. Optional equipment not included. Starting A, Z and X Plan price is for qualified, eligible customers and excludes document fee, destination/delivery charge, taxes, title and registration. Not all vehicles qualify for A, Z or X Plan. All Mustang Shelby GT350® and Shelby® GT350R prices exclude gas guzzler tax.
How’s the tech? The Mustang Mach-E offers some of the latest and greatest in-car tech Ford has to offer. The 15.5-inch touchscreen display features an excellent navigation system as well as standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration. There's a wireless charging pad too, though it couldn't charge our phones quickly enough to keep up with wireless CarPlay. Ford includes both USB-A and -C ports that will charge your phone quickly. Following Tesla's lead, Ford offers over-the-air updates that should make dealer visits less frequent.
Ford offers a decent list of driver aids, including the BlueCruise system that allows hands-free driving in certain conditions and on select highways. The latest iteration generally works well, though we think it would still benefit from further refinement. We found in our testing that BlueCruise stops working with little warning and occasionally makes poor steering or lane change decisions. As such, it's hard to really trust it, which is the whole point of hands-free driving. Otherwise, the adaptive cruise works smoothly and holds tight gaps without constantly tapping the brakes. The surround-view camera system provides lots of angles and looks clear in the center screen.
Storage
8/10
How’s the storage? The Mach-E's hatch-style trunk helps maximize cargo space. Ford says there's 29 cubic feet of space behind the rear seats. That's not as generous as the Model Y, especially underfloor. There is, however, a very clever flexible cargo cover that attaches to the rear hatch and swings up out of the way or can be removed completely. Adding to the Mach-E's cargo capacity are the split rear seats that fold. The front trunk is a bit small but has a drain hole, allowing you to use it as an ice-filled cooler that can be drained later.
Up front, a two-tiered console offers plenty of storage options for your personal items and makes the front cabin look more spacious. The side door pockets are a decent width but short on height. A wireless charging pad ahead of the cupholders looks like it will accommodate two phones, but it's really only big enough for one.
Got little kids? The child safety seat anchor points are located behind slits in the seatback. They're not as visible as the Euro-style Isofix anchors but provide OK access.
How are the range and efficiency? The Mustang Mach-E has an EPA-estimated range of 224-312 miles on a full charge, depending on its configuration. At Edmunds, we tested an all-wheel-drive Premium trim that has an EPA-estimated range of 290 miles. And on the Edmunds EV Range Test, our test car went slightly farther than that, posting 307 miles on a single charge. That's one of the longer results we've seen from a dual-motor electric SUV in this price range. Most EVs have exceeded their EPA estimates in our testing, with the notable exception of Tesla's vehicles. For efficiency, our test vehicle used 32.7 kWh of electricity per 100 miles driven, which is a bit more than what we've seen from rivals like the Model Y and Volkswagen ID.4.
We've also run the Mach-E through the Edmunds EV Charging Test to find out how quickly it can charge and gain range at a public DC fast-charging station. Here, the Mach-E is underwhelming, ranking as one of the slowest-charging electric SUVs in our testing. That means you'll likely be spending more time charging on a road trip than with a rival such as the Kia EV6.
Value
8/10
Is the Mustang Mach-E a good value? Unlike Tesla, Ford's EV credits have not yet run out, meaning the potential discounts on the Mach-E make it a pretty attractive deal. Build quality feels solid overall, and the cabin is beautifully trimmed in a style that feels reminiscent of Scandinavian design. If not for the typical Ford switchgear that appears on the steering wheel and doors, you might think you were in a Lincoln.
Ford's warranty is a bit less generous compared to luxury makes but isn't that far off. Coverage lasts for three years/36,000 miles for bumper-to-bumper and five years/60,000 miles for the powertrain. Electric components are covered for eight years/100,000 miles including retention of at least 70% of the original battery capacity.
Wildcard
9/10
The Mustang Mach-E has been on the market for a few years now but we like how the styling still looks distinctive. Ford also did well to include some sporty personality, especially with the available GT trim. Some EVs can be bland, but not this one.
2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E trim level differences
The 2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E is a five-passenger all-electric SUV that comes in three main trim levels: Select, Premium and GT. There's also this year's new Rally as well. Power outputs and the EPA-estimated range vary by the differing battery and electric motor configurations.
Which Mustang Mach-E trim does Edmunds recommend?
We think the Premium trim with the extended-range battery provides the best mix of features, range and value.

(Almost) Self-Driving Car Comparison Test: Tesla vs. BMW vs. Ford vs. GM | Hands-Free Driving Test
NOTE: This video is about the 2023 Ford Mustang Mach-E, but since the 2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E is part of the same generation, our earlier analysis still applies.
Self-driving cars have been "on the horizon" seemingly forever, and while we still haven't bridged the gap to true autonomy, today's driving assist systems are more advanced than ever — and they're becoming increasingly common. In this video, Edmunds' Clint Simone and Brian Wong put four of the most powerful systems to the test: BMW's Driving Assistant Plus, GM's Super… Cruise, Ford's BlueCruise and, of course, Tesla's Full Self-Driving Beta.
Looking like it just rolled off the set of a sci-fi film, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 is a hatchback-like electric crossover with head-turning style and performance to match. Like the Mach-E, the Ioniq 5 is quick and nimble no matter which trim level you choose. It's a close call, but we like driving the Hyundai just a little bit better. The Ioniq 5 is less expensive and has a longer warranty. The Mustang offers more cargo room, however, with more rear space and a usable frunk.
The Tesla Model Y has enjoyed a healthy head start on the electric SUV competition for several years, but it now has to share the stage with newer, arguably better options. The Model Y performs well, but it has a stiffer ride than others in its class. It takes a minimalist approach with its cabin, with only the tablet-like central touchscreen to look at and not much else. Its range estimates are impressive, but as we've found in our real-world range tests it falls short of its EPA numbers.
The ID.4 is the first of many battery electric Volkswagens to come, and it's a commendable initial effort. It drives well and offers decent range with the larger battery pack. Its infotainment system could use some refinement, however, as it's not as intuitive or responsive as others. The ID.4 undercuts the Mach-E's starting price by a significant margin, but if you like an engaging driving experience you should look elsewhere. No matter which trim level and drivetrain you pick, the ID.4 just isn't that exciting.
