Power/Torque

  • Mustang Mach-E Select RWD: 198kW / 430Nm
  • Mustang Mach-E Premium RWD: 216kW / 430Nm
  • Mustang Mach-E GT AWD: 358kW / 860Nm

Battery Chemistry

  • Mustang Mach-E Select: 71kWh LFP Battery (Can be charged to 100% repeatedly with far less degradation occurring compared to NMC)
  • Mustang Mach-E Premium: 91kWh NMC Battery (Should be charged to ~80 day to day, only charging 100% for long journeys)
  • Mustang Mach-E GT NMC 91kWh Battery (Should be charged to ~80 day to day, only charging 100% for long journeys)

Know your battery packs! LFP vs NMC

I'd recommend educating yourself. Youtube is a good place to start.
This is another reason why I would choose the Mach-E Select grade over the others.

LFP has no cobalt or nickel. See how this stuff is mined and by who (its done by children in a lot of cases).
LFP can be charged to 100% over and over again with less degradation occurring compared to NMC batteries
LFP has heavily reduced thermal runaway issues

Range

  • Mustang Mach-E Select: 470km
  • Mustang Mach-E Premium: 600km (When you factor in that you need to limit day to day charging to 80% on the NMC battery fitted to this car, it's the same day to day range you would get in the cheaper Select model. You just have the option of longer range on the odd occasions you charge up to 100%)
  • Mustang Mach-E GT: 490km

If you want a more accurate understanding of battery range please refer to the ev-database website. They have some good breakdowns on range based on ambient temperature.

Refreshed MY25 Mach-E coming H2 2025.

It's worth pointing out that the Mach-E has had a large refresh last year in overseas markets. Australia won't be getting it until H2 2025. If you want to see what the refresh includes here the article here:

        • Craftsmanship and mustang. Haha. Ok look. Mustang is decent but it’s not amazing.

          • @Brick Tamland: Okay.
            Within the Ford Umbrella, Mustang is one of the casual luxury models.
            The Mach is just not remotely similar, it feels like a premium shitbox

            I can appreciate that Ford is not a luxury brand nor do they understand what it means

    • +2

      Yep this is a Fauxstang

  • +4

    With those price drops, they really missed the mark on pricing. Over $17k since launch, and thats before on-roads.

    • +2

      it bombed hard in the US too

      serves 'em right

      • +1

        I don't know how it's tracking against Ford's internal forecasts - so I can't say whether it's a success or flop - but I have read that sales in the US on the Mach E in 2024 grew significantly from 2023, and overtook that of the petrol-powered Mustang.

  • I’m in the market I’ll buy one for $30K

    • +6

      Mustang Mach MG4

      • don't like the look of it. Although it does seem like a good value vehicle.

    • Get a BYD

  • New Capri EV is out in Europe soon.

    • +1

      Capri EV is just a VW ID.4/ID.5 with Ford shell over the top.
      I doubt it will come to Australia.

  • +2

    Spoiler: price is going lower

    • Source?

  • +4

    Sorry, this might sound a bit rude and unpleasant, but the Mustang EV is not a Mustang. people may treat you like an idiot when you're driving on the road.

    • +1

      I wouldn't get caught up on the name/badge on the back of the car.
      Just think of it as Ford Mach-E SUV.

      • +1

        Agree. Don’t understand why people get so hung up on the name - and worse, judge others by the name of the car they drive.

        • Car names tend to stand for something. That's their marketing power. Otherwise cars would have informative but uninspiring names like the 'Subaru cladded and raised wagon 3.6.

          I saw this car in a parking lot the other week with the Mustang logo and it just seemed strange to me. Mustang is a very strong branding. You know what it is. It's a muscle car.

          Ford is trying to broaden that branding. It's jarring at first glance. It may work out for them. Or it may break the brand.

          Marketing is hard.

    • How are we supposed to treat idiots on the road?

    • +1

      Says who? And why do you care what others think about the car you drive?

    • +2

      Sorry, this might sound a bit rude and unpleasant, but the Mustang EV is not a Mustang. people may treat you like an idiot when you're driving on the road.

      It's neither rude nor unpleasant. All you did was tell us how shallow you are as a person that you are so affected by a badge on someone else's car.

    • Oh it isn’t? I was totally thinking an electric SUV was the same thing as a 2 door v8 coupe.

    • I already treat everyone else on the road as an idiot.
      Mostly it turns out to be true.

  • +5

    What is OzB’s obsession with EV?

  • I have never noticed one of these on the road. My local Ford dealer does not even get them in, the manager only gets the Everest, the Ranger and a couple of Transits. Ford Australia is a two model business and unless they drop these even further will remain as such.

    • +2

      They only just dropped down to semi-sane prices. 80k before onroads for a car without a lot of features was delusional.

    • It's possible that with the facelifted MY25 model coming to Australia in Q3/Q4 this year, Ford Australia havent received stock in some time and they are trying to shift the current stock they have on hand.

    • +1

      The trouble is they called it a Mustang.

      This just annoys real Mustang buyers who just ignored its existence and continue to buy the GT in much larger numbers..

      And ironically otherwise Ford EV buyers are put off by the name.

  • +1

    looks like more of a Kuga than a Mustang..no wonder they aren't selling

  • +3

    If you've been following the price of these on CarSales you'd know that Select 'demonstrators' have been listed for $55-$60k for the past 6 months or so. That's the real price, and probably still not low enough because nobody is buying them based on the sales numbers.

    The price needs to go quite a bit lower, like it did in NZ last year, to boost sales. It is actually a very nice car and would be perfect for those who are put off by the modern or minimalist styling of the competition. My wife loved it, but for us the boot wasn't big enough, despite its overall length. I like the exterior as well.

    I've also driven one. Power and fit & finish is very good. Reviews are mostly good too. I am surprised there aren't more on the road.

  • Visually, it's a nice looking car. But I was expecting it would have a more traditional mustang look to it, like the electric mach-e in Forza 5.

  • +2

    What the… I don't follow the car industry and just assumed this Mustang Mach-E was an EV version of the Mustang (that's why I clicked the deal to check it out).

    The thing looks nothing like a Mustang?!

    • Correct: it looks more like a cow than a horse..

  • +1

    Is anyone actually buying these

  • +2

    Kia EV6 and Hyundai inoic 5 are superior cars.

    Also uncertainty with supply chain in US because of tariffs. Some parts maybe in indefinite back order. Not worth the risk.

    • +4

      EV6 and IONIQ 5 also cost substantially more.

      Kia/Hyundai absolutely suck at pricing/equipping their EV's in Australia. Ridiculous prices.

      They persist with inflated prices or butchered equipment lists since COVID. Not budging.

      • +2

        I'm mad at Kia for this. The way they price their vehicles like they're hot stuff really annoys me. They've got great looking cars but when I was looking at their Sorento line, the prices went up to 95k! Who do they think they are?! Same goes for Mazda.

        • Because the euro equivalents are 120k plus

      • +1

        EV3 under 50k. Car of the year in 2025.

        • +1

          EV3 is tiny compared to Mustang Mach-E
          It's FWD and it's low on power
          The $50 varient has essentially no equipment in it. Bare basics.

          The EV3 you want is the GT-Line, but it's nearly $70K driveaway and it's still the same gutless FWD power train.

          • @E5TOQUE: Bare basics? What do you actually need? Low on power? Again how much does the average driver need? I'm not saying it's a comparison to a mustang, I am saying it is a cheaper EV that is more than fine for most Australians.

            • +1

              @Hardlyworkin: I am calling out WHY the EV3 Air Standard Range is so much cheaper at $49,990 drive away compared to the Mustang Mach-E.

              The EV3 that is most closely aligned to the cheapest Mustang Mach-E Select in equipment is the EV3 GT-Line and it costs $68,500 drive away - which is $5500 more then the Mustang Mach-E and its still a much smaller, FWD car, with less power. Its not good value.

              They are not comparable is any shape or form. If the EV3 works for then, then that's great. This post is specifically about the Mustang Mach-E, and people are comparing it against its competitors in the comments. EV3 is none of these.

              And the other elephant in the room is the MY25 Mustang Mach-E is a few months away, with some big improvements. EV3 is a brand new car that just launched.

              EV3 Air Standard Range

              • 58.3kWh battery
              • FWD (worse)

              • @E5TOQUE: You said that Kia pricing in Australia sucks. I said I didn't think so with the EV3. Then you went on a rant.

                So $18,500 difference between the 2 you've listed. Small change for some I guess.
                I know which one I'll bet on for reliability and dealing with parts availability in Australia. Let's check back in in 5 years time. Best of luck.

                • @Hardlyworkin: If you read what I wrote:

                  "Kia/Hyundai absolutely suck at pricing/equipping their EV's in Australia."

                  The key word there is pricing and equipping. Sure it might seem cheap, but there is a reason, you get absolutely bare minimum standard equipment for that $50,000 you are handing over. There are better value EV's out there asking similar money.

                  The comparable Kia EV that goes against the Mach-E is the EV5 and EV6. Compare like for like, spec for spec, and you will see the Kia's generally come up short in the price/equipment department.

        • Was looking at one of these, but too pricey even in base spec. Low power, FWD, and that interior and exterior is kinda wacky.

  • Does it have a blue badge on the front?
    No thanks

  • +3

    Plug in hybrid is the only way to go for most Australians who like to leave the big cities throughout the year. I’ve had 2 Fords, never again. Honkies don’t know how to build cars.

    • +1

      I think standard hybrids are better if you commute across the country, Chuck some petti in and you're good to go

  • +3

    I know someone who bought one ~6 months ago and hates the range, dodgy UI, and has already had a driveshaft replaced.

    These offers are for the 2023 model vehicle which wasn't at all well received even in the US. Turn on AC/heating and you can kiss your range goodbye, as these don't have a heatpump system.

    There is a 2025 refresh model out in the US, which iron's out many of the issues these earlier models had and comes with a heatpump.

    Watch a decent review of the 2025 model below, and then consider how pretty much all the pipes are plastic (same with the earlier models). These things are not built to last…

      Same situation as GM. They cheaply built the Craptiva and the Cruze. Years later not only have the owner had to put up with a crap product and costly repairs the resale is horrendous

  • A deal is a deal, still seems high priced compared to other EV,

  • +1

    For those considering, join the Australian owners group on FB. Biggest gripe I noted was the lacklustre software experience and extremely delays for Ford to get parts for repair.

    • +1

      Lol it is not a delay is just a Ford.

  • LFP can be charged to 100% over and over again with less degradation occurring compared to NMC batteries

    This isn’t true. The degradation in LFP and NMC batteries is the same. However LFP batteries have a flat voltage curve, with only a noticeable uptick in voltage near 100%. meaning that the BMS isn’t able to reliably determine the state of charge (SoC) of LFP batteries instead it estimates the SoC by measuring the cumulative energy flow in and out of the battery. The recommendation to charge to 100% regularly allows the BMS to recalibrate itself, and provide an accurate state of charge (SoC).

    • LFP batteries are generally more tolerant to frequent charging to 100% compared to NMC batteries, as they have a higher cycle life and are less sensitive to high voltage. While it's generally recommended to avoid fully charging NMC batteries regularly to prolong their life, LFP batteries can often be charged to 100% without significant impact on their lifespan

      In short, degradation is not the same

      • You are correct that the LFP is more tolerant than NMC, but it still degrades at 100% just the same as NMC.

        If you are regularly charging your LFP battery to 100% you are likely cycling the SoC within 75% to 100%.
        To quote a study from Tesla-funded Jeff Dahn Research Group:

        "Cycling near the top of charge (75%–100% SOC) is detrimental to LFP/graphite cells"
        "Therefore, the time spent cycling at high states of charge is critical to minimize"

        If you have a NMC battery you can restrict cycling to say between 30% and 70%, you able to completely avoid the low SoC and high SoC that degrades the battery. With LFP you need to charge to 100% to reset the BMS (otherwise your car could say it has 70% SoC, then suddenly drop to 40% for example).

        • +1

          Your understanding of EV battery degradation is incorrect.

          The rate of degradation is not the same as LFP batteries have a much higher charge cycle (up to 10k optimally)

          • @freeb1e4me: We are saying different things. Mid-range cycling of the SoC of any battery chemistry is vastly superior to high-range cycling (in the order of 4x better).

            So much so, you are only high-range cycling an LFP battery you are completely offsetting the advantages in its chemistry when compared to mid-range cycling an NMC battery.

            Edit: Watch this… https://youtu.be/w1zKfIQUQ-s

    • It is true.
      LFP packs have 100 - 200% more charge cycles then NMC packs.

      Yes the main reason you need to charge to 100% is to recalibrate the BMS. But doing so has minimal impact on the longevity of the battery pack when compared to an NMC battery

  • This or a geely ex5 ? Aside from the price difference

    • Geely EX5 is FWD with less power.

      The safety systems have been called out in reviews for needing more polish.

      Menus in the infotainment system haven't been translated well from Chinese to English. Comes across like it's been rushed over to our market.

      If sounds like an ice cream van when driving at slow speeds with no way to change the sound currently. It's embarrassing.

      It's from a new brand that is still trying to get their operations setup in Australia. No guarantee they will be sticking around long term.

      • I'd put more money on Geely being around than Skoda in 10-20 years tbh globally but I take your point about domestic market which is subject to geopolitics

        I've driven both at Everything Electric.

        The geely interior actually feels more premium which surprised me. More spacious. Skoda drives better which is no surprise. The jingle and chinglish will maybe be fixed with OTA updates. Safety system is a little intrusive but can be turned down/off. Both compelling options at this price, the more budget and value conscious might drift towards Geely. If you can't stomach a Chinese car the Skoda is not a bad package although there's a lot more options at 60-70k mark like the ID4, and Cupra which I really liked

  • They are too expensive, I’d love to buy one but can’t bring myself to buy one when similar competing EVs such as byd are much much cheaper

  • +1

    Re Tesla insurance, it’s def location/person based. I paid 1150. When car shopping, the Rav4 was gonna be 950. So 200 bucks extra. I have looked at next year as it’s due next month. $1250. Got the 6k gov contribution so cost $51,500 when new - less than the RAV4 (and no 8 month wait). It’s a year old next month and never paid for any fuel or service costs (wiper fluid $9.50). I’d say I am in front. It’s the wife’s car, I never really leave the house. Plug in overnight midnight to 6am at 8c/kw. Costs $1. Solar and gov rebates mean we have never had a power bill yet and are still in credit. Will be looking at filters at $45 and you fit them yourself. Breaks hardly ever used.

    • +2

      Insurance is definitely location based. But there is multiple threads on Whirlpool and Reddit from Australian owners and the excessive cost to insure them is called out frequently. There is also Facebook groups where this comes up too.

      Those same people, in those same locations are then putting in other brands cars that cost the same as Tesla (BYD, VW, etc), and the insurance costs come back dramatically cheaper.

      • you just need to compare a few, some insurers don't want to cover EV and prices accordingly. quotes from Aami, Bingle, Shannons have all come back comparable to ICE for me

    • tesla ownership also has a time-cost due to having to talk about tesla all the time :) :) (ok maybe that's just the ppl I know.. constantly talking about it.. quoting how much it cost them to drive from a-z.. and how much they nurse their battery for optimal health etc.. I love EVs but it seems like a lot :) )

  • The discounting says that mustang are not selling well, as opposed to ford ranger that is inflated caused is selling super well

    • We need to be start slapping taxes on all large Utes

      • Instead we give them tax rebates because they are "work" cars

  • +1

    Still far too expensive. 91kwh battery and only 470km WLTP range. That is terrible efficiency. Efficiency is one area that Tesla still excels at.

    • The premium with the 91kwh battery has a 600km WLTP. 470km is for the base spec with the 72kwh battery.

      WLTP range doesn't take the lack of a heat pump in to account.

  • +1

    The interior is atrocious for a $60k-$100k car in 2025. If the Mustang Mach-E was made by a Chinese/Korean company, the reviews would be so harsh but i guess it's okay just because it's "Ford".

  • Dolphin mini will be coming soon and less than 30k before on road cost. Should be ozbargain favourite ev

    • hopefully with a sub 11sec 0-100!

  • Nice car and would be fun to drive.

    But this type of coupe SUV is useless in terms of practicality, it will not fit any large boxy objects, due to the tailgate can't close.

    So might as well make it a coupe or sedan for lower centre of gravity.

  • +1

    Up to $12.000 off is a bit misleading. You can't add the previous reductions … imagine we would start doing this for other products.

    It's just up to $3,990 off (or just $1,990 for the "Select").

    • You are forgetting that the prices before this month were BEFORE on-road costs.
      The prices are now drive-away prices. So the overall savings are higher then looking purely at the numbers.

      So you need to factor in ~$6000 of drive away costs (Rego, Stamp Duty, Dealer Delivery and CTP).

      In the case of the Mach-E GT it was also hit with LCT too.
