Entering Grasso’s Garage this week is an EV that values aggressive styling as much as neck-snapping acceleration.
Wrapped in Ford’s stunning Glacier Gray Metallic paint, our Mustang Mach-E GT eAWD tester skip-steps right over the futuristic hiccups of typical EVs.
Instead, this all-electric Mustang hits consumers with presence, featuring an upscale black grille shield, body-colored wheel arches and imposing 20-inch monochromatic high-gloss black wheels and Brembro brakes.
Torque from electric vehicles tends to be instantaneous, and in this respect, the Mach-E GT does not disappoint. Powered by an extended-range 91-kWh lithium-ion battery alongside dual-motor electronic all-wheel drive, this combo produces 480 horsepower and 600 lb.-ft. of torque. You can touch the 15.5 inch vertical center stack touchscreen, and put it in unbridled mode, which gives you more power, and the GT rockets from 0 to 60 mph in a blistering 3.8 seconds.
The power delivery is immediate, violent and highly addictive.
On the inside, the aesthetically appealing cockpit is modern and simple while hitting the tech demands of today’s consumers. The sync 4A system pushes wireless Apple CarPlay flawlessly, while the GT-specific sport performance seats are wrapped in ActiveX material with Miko suede inserts. A 10-speaker Bang & Olufsen premium audio system delivered concert-like vibes.
Rear-head room is a concern for tall passengers as it seems to be minimalized with the rear-sloping exterior, but for most daily drivers, this is a win.
With Ford continuing production on the Mach-E, there is clearly a market still in place for the all-electric nameplate. Providing track-ready performance for daily drivers looking for that extra slice of speed with a premium look, Ford has a massive win on its hand especially with the F-150 Lightning being discontinued.
