Mustang Mach-E Range and Emissions Certification

[texaninmi]

Hello Everyone. I work at Ford on the Mustang Mach-E launch and there still seems to be some confusion over what was posted by a member indicating that the Mach-E range was going to be less than expected. That is not the case and is explained below. Hope this helps clear up the info.

Statement from Ford:
"The EPA-estimated driving range ratings for all 2021 Mustang Mach-E configurations are expected to be available by the end of 2020. The Mach-E driving range numbers initially reported were for zero emissions vehicle certification and do not represent final EPA-estimated range capability. When EPA-estimated ratings are released, we expect them to align with the driving range targets we set. We will have more to share later this month."

Thanks for the information. We look forward to the real report. We've just been starving for information out here and grabbing onto any tidbit available.

We appreciate Ford's marketing department taking an active interest in this forum community, and in stemming the spread of rumors and misinformation.

We would DEFINITELY welcome continued transparency and updates. Please keep them coming. Thank you.

It certainly can be. In this case it appears that, either intentionally or unintentionally, scores for one purpose were claimed to be scores for another purpose. If you don't understand how this could be misinformation I can't help you.

Thanks for the clarification. Hopefully it will introduce some sanity and context into what has become something of a conspiracy theory.

What bothered me about the numbers published last week was it never looked like they were official, but everyone acted as if they were.

 

[sockmeister]

They're accurate, but they don't represent the production car's real range. Let's wait until the final numbers are out. Then, I'm all in -- no holds barred for all of us on condemning, or praising, the range.

I was the person who posted it in both places, but people were still commenting and speculating on the original post which is why we added the additional statement yesterday. And no, the stated targeted mileage for the extended range AWD is 270 miles not 250. Have a great day!

I believe he is referring to your statement:

Um, or we could wait and see what real people are getting in real-world, everyday driving? Crowdsource results, so to speak?
