I believe the wheels on the sport appearance package are the same as the regular premium. Can I get the Brembo system on my non-sport appearance pockage premium?

ALL Mach-E's have Brembo calipers up front and always have. Ford just chooses to paint them on some trims (First Edition, GT, Sport Appearance Packages, etc.) and on the GT performance models they also have Brembo decals.I believe the wheels on the sport appearance package are the same as the regular premium.

oooops...brakes...
Where can I find this information?ALL Mach-E's have Brembo calipers up front and always have. Ford just chooses to paint them on some trims (First Edition, GT, Sport Appearance Packages, etc.) and on the GT performance models they also have Brembo decals.
Don't believe all you read (Google search/AI). The front brake calipers on all Mach-E's are Brembo 4-piston Flexira's. Except for color (First Edition's, Sport appearance packages and GT's are painted red) and larger size/decals (GT performance editions) they are identical. All Flexira fixed calipers are aluminum (weight saving) with steel sleeves/inserts which increase the mechanical strength. These cylindrical inserts can be seen on the front surface of Flexira calipers which ALL Mach-E trims have. Brake pads on all Flexira fixed calipers can be changed out very quickly without removing the caliper.Where can I find this information?
I thought the GTPE had larger brakes though, which is why the smaller wheels don’t fit.Don't believe all you read (Google search/AI).

I personally have taken the front (and rear) brake calipers/rotors off my '21 Premium and '21 GTPE and the front calipers are identical except for size/color. Ford makes a big deal about the GT's having front Brembo calipers when in fact all model/trims do.

Yes. I mentioned twice the GTPE brakes are larger.I thought the GTPE had larger brakes though, which is why the smaller wheels don’t fit.
Ah, when you said it as a “ / “ I read it wrong.Yes. I mentioned twice the GTPE brakes are larger.
I am very poor at writing. I hated English in school and have literally read only 2 books in my entire life. I'm also not very good at explaining things either. I can be confusing at times.Ah, when you said it as a “ / “ I read it wrong.
Especially after using the word “identical.”
I thought you were saying they were identical except the stickers and color. Now I get it.![]()
Yes because there are two "Performance Upgrades" which actually are both different. '21-'23 It meant the GT would get the MagRide suspension, larger brakes, different interior, slight increase in power, summer tires, etc. '24-'25 ALL GT's got these features standard and the "Performance Upgrade" on those cars was just the added power.I'm pretty sure the 24 & 25 GT's without the Performance Upgrade have the larger brakes as well.
Can you take a photo of your front caliper and post please?I have a 2023 Premium with red brake calipers. No writing on it. I noticed that the surface of both are diffrent besides the printing on it. Why is that thenif you dont mind me asking?
