You realize that makes the Mach E4X faster than any Ford Mustang except for the special performance models (GTs, Cobras, SVT, BOSS, Bullitt) right?
The 2020 Shelby GT-500 is either 3.7 or 3.6 depending upon your flavor. I really think the MME team needs to push the GT to 3.5 :p

Agreed. The Mustang Mach E beats all prior Mustangs. The Mach E GT should beat all prior GTs.

FAKE NE.... oh wait you're right. Sorry this 'ain't a Mustang' crowd!

And actually Mark, I'm quite serious about that as well.

Something I learned in years of collective bargaining sessions with management teams: a joke often drives home a point and when it doesn't, sarcasm usually will. :)

1400 Mach E beats all other Mustangs?
Not a production mustang, so it doesn't really count. It will be very interesting if a stock performance GT MME does indeed outrun the V8's... the diehards would have to acknowledge that fact.

The Mach-E GT is going head to head against the Model Y Performance. It'll meet or beat the Tesla out of the box.
I would guess that Ford is building more potential performance gains into the GT so that they'll be able to keep pace or pull ahead of any marginal boosts that Tesla enables.

Does anybody know if Ford measures its 0 to 60 time with a 1-ft rollout?

The officially stated European 0-100 kph included a 1-ft rollout. The new 4.8 second 0-60 number came to us with no announcement and no footnotes on the table to clarify.

Somewhere today, on an official Ford statement, I read the Premium Standard AWD 5.1s number was with roll-out

Would be so great if the GT got close to 3 seconds but not sure how with tires skinnier than the performance MY. I am hoping they learned some things from the 1,400 that they can incorporate into the GT with the extra time they have before producing it. I think it would really generate some positive publicity if they can really juice it better than tesla.
