    'Audio wizardry' with optional engine noise / sound in Mach-E cabin

    Agree. This sounds like a growing pain of an attempt to appease the tastes of multiple audiences. Imagine Iā€™ll switch and keep the fake noise option turned off.

    Ford Performance Teases RTR Mach-E Mustang Collaboration, Reveal Coming 7/21

    Am I the only one not feeling that high pitched ā€˜engineā€™ noise that the Mach E seemed to produce in the Bigfoot and now this video?

    Ford marketing idea - hit the road

    With the MME nearing prime time, itā€™d be great if Ford produced and published some videos of it being driven ā€˜out in the wild.ā€™ Nothing flashy or over-produced, in fact, as organic as possible would probably be best. But show a long multi-state trip. Show a medium distance day trip with the car...

    FORD FURTHER POSTPONES NA PRODUCTION RESTART TO PROTECT WORKFORCE - UNKNOWN RESTART DATE

    I keep thinking about the sourcing of things like batteries that are beyond Fordā€™s control.

    Ford Aims to Restart Production at Key North American Plants Starting April 6

    Is it fair to say a production delay for Mach E could be a good thing? Giving all thatā€™s going on in the world and how it is disrupting supply chains, Iā€™d rather Ford take time and get the vehicle done right versus working under a compressed schedule. But Iā€™m not an expert in the auto industry...

    FORD TAKES ACTION TO ADDRESS EFFECTS OF CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC

    Iā€™d agree optics are a low consideration. But still, Iā€™d feel like a bit of a heel to roll up to a family picnic in a $55k vehicle when my cousins and others have been out of work and are struggling. But maybe thatā€™s my Midwestern roots showing through, lol.

    FORD TAKES ACTION TO ADDRESS EFFECTS OF CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC

    Beyond being a niche vehicle, why do you think Mach E sales will hold firm? My guess is they will soften. Several reasons: price of oil has dropped significantly, so ICE vehicle makes more economic sense; stock market drop leaving people feeling ā€˜less flushā€™ for a stretch purchase; optics of...

    Should I reserve a Mach-E now if I want the car in late 2021?

    Iā€™m in a similar situation regarding not needing/wanting to take possession of the Mach E Iā€™ve reserved until mid-2021 and am confident in being able to do so. This is a very premium purchase across all trims and Iā€™m confident Ford will make that possible. Iā€™m also troubled by how much...

    The truth about Electrify America's progress and Traveling with the Mach E

    This post made me reflect on how much work is yet to be done before the typical consumer is comfortable buying an electric car - MME to the CCS to the CHADEMO - WTF?! Until itā€™s as easy as unleaded versus premium, ?ā€ā™‚ļø

    First Production Mach-E Model? [Update: This Is First Assembly Line Made Pre-Production Unit]

    Was waffling on my choice of iconic silver until seeing these photos. Looks great!

    A lot of information on Mach-E

    Too funny! In all seriousness, I hope thereā€™s a way to enable the top performance mode without piping in the fake ā€˜engineā€™ noise. I know they worked hard on that feature, and perhaps hearing will equal believing, but the idea strikes me as tacky.

    A lot of information on Mach-E

    I noticed that too and am intrigued. Would be great to get the ER without having to upgrade to premium trim.
