During the era of Voyager there were a people known as the Maquis, pronounced Ma:Ki. The Maquis are known to use a diverse mix of older spacecraft that have been upgraded with advanced weaponry to take on much larger vessels.
Me- Every time I tell someone about my order that has no idea what a Mach-E is. I go with. Maquis, you know from Star Trek. Really cool craft. Works sometimes.
Can't wait for my Maquis to arrive!!!!!

When I first read that, I misread it as Marquis and thought of the old Mercury brand ???

My east coast born grandparents had a grand marquis, but because of their accents it was always pronounced ma-key. If my grandfather was still alive today, I would love to tell him that I followed in his footsteps and will also be driving a mach-e.

Don't the British pronounce the "Mach" in Mustang Mach E as "mock" the way the word was pronounced in star trek?
