Those EPA numbers are not what you should look at. You need to look at how many miles per KW can the vehicle go to usable battery. The E tron goes 2.45 miles per KW. The Model X goes 3.01.There's a big difference in efficiency between the two: EPA 46 kWh/100 miles e-tron, 35 kWh Model X. I-pace is 44, Taycan 49. If Mach E hits Ford's number, it will match Model X, leaving it far behind Model Y.
22% difference. If we assume the Mach E has the same 22% difference, we're looking at 242 miles for LR RWD. Laughably, that won't be the real number. The Mach E is promising 373 miles WLTP, which is extremely high and much better than the Model X. You have to also remember that performance motors on the E-Tron are not the same as what is going on the Mach E. The Mach E will see more efficient motors to help with range vs power.
I am positive the Mach E will sit in between the X and Model Y for EPA numbers. I even forecast it will be on the higher end. I think we will be greatly surprised by the range numbers.
