It would be perfect in Iceland, basically free electricity there. I would need a superjeep if I lived there! Those are awesome.I was in Iceland for a week this summer after the initial Rally tease came out. Much of the time driving there I was thinking that Mach-E Rally would be an awesome Iceland car!
Many parts of Iceland are windy gravel roads, plus lots of ups and downs over hills. I was having fun with the EV6 rental but was thinking about the Rally version. I really wanted to pass a couple of camper trucks on these roads but was afraid of rock damage the rental company would ding me for. A personally-owned rally car on the other hand ...
Then there are the "F" roads. These forest/mountian roads are dirt or gravel and have lots of rocks, etc. They are 4WD-only and may need even more clearance than the extra 20mm or ride height the Rally gets. I haven't seen those roads but a Mach E Rally might work with its new Aluminum Underbody Protective Shields – Front and Rear. However, those roads might need a Lightning instead.
I just kept thinking that if I lived in Iceland I'd be waiting for the ordering on the Rally to open up!
I went on several F-roads in a Rav-4 in the middle of winter, if careful I’m sure the extra 20mm would be plenty. Most of the F-roads were better than my driveway, haha!
