It’s still found in many current manuals. For example, this is from the 2021 Mustang Owners Manual:

BREAKING-IN
Your vehicle requires a break-in period. For the first 1,000 mi (1,600 km), avoid driving at high speeds, heavy braking, aggressive shifting or using your vehicle to tow. During this time, your vehicle may exhibit some unusual driving characteristics.
Is that in the MACH-E or the regular Mustang?

I should have said EV and not all cars, oh well.

The Mach-E manual says this about breaking the vehicle in on page 263 (really the tires, not the car):

“You need to break in new tires for approximately 300 mi (480 km). During this time, your vehicle may exhibit some unusual driving characteristics.”

Doesn’t say what breaking in for tires entails though, does it.
