If you ordered a 2024 Mustang Mach-E GT or are thinking about ordering one, we are giving you the flexibility to choose when you want to access the optional Performance Upgrade. This can be selected at vehicle purchase or access it seamlessly via the FordPass app via a one-time purchase for $995 plus tax once you have taken delivery of your vehicle. This means you don’t have to decide upfront if you want to purchase the Performance Upgrade and can activate it whenever you’re ready to boost the performance of your GT.

To activate the Performance Upgrade, simply go to the FordPass app and then navigate to the Connected Services tab. Click on the Performance Upgrade tile. Once you complete the transaction the upgrade will be installed in less than 5 minutes, and you can enjoy all that the upgrade enables. Note, this is non-transferrable to another VIN.

The Performance Upgrade enables 2024 Mustang Mach-E GT vehicle to:
  • Add additional 100 lb.-ft of torque for a total of 700 lb.-ft.*
  • 0-60 mph in 3.3. seconds, which is down from 3.8 seconds without the upgrade. It is also faster than both the Tesla Model Y Performance and the Porsche Macan 4 Electric.**
  • 11.8 seconds at 114 MPH through the quarter mile
Check out this video showing you how to access the Performance Upgrade via the FordPass app:

And, here is the Performance Upgrade in action:

*Calculated via peak performance of the electric motor(s) at peak battery power. Your results may vary.

**Ford test data based on typical industry methodology using 1-ft rollout. Your results may vary. Tested with optional Summer tires.
My performance upgrade is no longer available in FordPass. I bought the car a month ago. Can you help? @Ford Motor Company?

Extra power means added warranty exposure.
I've seen this statement or similar a few times and it does make sense. Once the car is out of warranty though, that cost goes away...maybe there should be a cheaper option for such a car.

To me it's less than the price of a set of heads and a camshaft/lifter set. It's a 13% gain in 0-60 time, which is pretty significant. Mine was included in the lease so the extra outlay is broken up over many months (I'll still be paying off the price of the option when my 3 year warranty is gone). I'd still not really blink an eye at the price if I were to buy it post-vehicle purchase. As with anything else, the value is in the mind of the purchaser. If it's not worth it to any given purchaser, it's likely not a thing that person should purchase. ??
