    When will torque vectoring be available? When will it be available to the Australian market? Are there plans to build more factories to make Mach E for other markets?

    CNBC Special: Why Ford is Risking Mustang to Take on Tesla

    There is no way that Ford could guarantee the success of this vehicle without capitalizing on, and expanding the Mustang to a brand. If anything, Ford have grossly under estimated how good this is by not rushing to build extra plants. They also couldn't risk this SUV not being a success.

    Latest Reservation Numbers and my Input on the Mach E

    I believe it to be a master stroke - bringing it under the Mustang umbrella. Some see the Mustang icon as a coupe, but can't see that the icon, the badge, as being greater than the type of body that holds it. Mustang is a culture, not a body style. Mustang means enjoying a certain flavour that...

    Article: Mach-E Buzz Bringing in New Customers, Mustang, and F-150 Owners

    /Meanwhile, some Mustang lovers are campaigning to have the name changed. I do understand their frustration and why they're unhappy about it, but I believe the pros far outweigh the cons. They're only thinking of tradition and they're stuck in the past (just like the live rear axle brigade)...

    Article: Mach-E Buzz Bringing in New Customers, Mustang, and F-150 Owners

    There's simply no other way of making a splash and grabbing people's attention. Making cars that are just appliances on wheels may work for some because that what consumers expect from those brands. When "Ford" is mentioned the image in the minds of the general public shouldn't be of generic...

    Autonocast discusses Mach-E's disruptive and human-centered design

    For proper full autonomy I can catch public transport. W3rkn I agree, I was hoping for something less like Tesla, but still left field. We need to consider budget and sometimes the simplest ways win. People see it as futuristic because Tesla did it that way therefore it's a trend, but in...

    Autoline 11/21/2019: Professional auto journalists interview Dave Pericak, Chris Walter

    Ford know this so they aren't worried about them. I wouldn't worry about people that can't take off their blinkers, either.

    Autoline 11/21/2019: Professional auto journalists interview Dave Pericak, Chris Walter

    Mustang Mach E doesn't need to attract those haters, the majority of which are just getting on the hate bandwagon. None of the haters have any clue of the grander scheme, and how Mach E enhances Mustang's and Ford's image.

    Geek Out on the Engineering Behind the Mach-E

    Ford have been quoted as saying that it is never a 100/0 or 0/100 torque split. Typically it's 30/70 and varies depending on circumstances.

    2021 Mach-E vs Model Y -- Specs and Styling Compared

    Mach E is one of the better looking designs out there at the moment. The Y has that Tesla theme. It tries to retain that look but in doing so it looks awkward, and some of the proportions seem a little off. Same with the other two models, the X and the 3. The Model S looks timeless and is...

    Mach E Truck

    Defeats the purpose of having the Ranger and F Series. F Series, as has been announced, will have a BEV option in a couple of years time. No reason why Ranger can't have that as well in the future. Have you seen the next Ranger? For the target market I think it looks better than the...

    Mustang name

    My six year also said the same thing. "That's not a Mustang! How's that a Mustang?" He's only six and needed to be recalibrated, so I can see your pain dealing with adults LOL. It is what Ford say it is. There'll be people objecting but to what end? Are they going to walk away from the Ford...

    Mustang name

    I recommend that people have a look at Rimac and how he got established. Truly inspiring story. The reason I mention him is because he put it in the simplest terms: power to weight ratio of internal combustion engines versus electric motors is remarkable. He used the example of an F1 engine...

    Mustang name

    I liked the Mustang. It shouldn't have been axed. They have made a big mistake discontinuing it because of its iconic heritage and that it is also the world's best selling sports car. I understand, selling lots doesn't always translate to being profitable when it's a stand alone model. Just...

    Pericak: "I'm 100 percent convinced it is a Mustang."

    There's what seems to be a section of the Mustang and Ford community that isn't sold on this and that is very understandable. Bill Ford himself wasn't sold on this and neither was Dave. I think right now Ford need to be a little more proactive and directly invite the most vocal critics from...

    Pericak: "I'm 100 percent convinced it is a Mustang."

    I dare you to post that on M6G :cool:

    Shelby Mach-E Model Confirmed by Ford!!

    They may introduce regenerative braking with such a Shelby, as well as torque vectoring. Maybe even rear wheel steering. If I'm being honest I would have thought the GT would come with torque vectoring.
